Bug and Insect Yard Art

Features

• The type of insects featured depends on the type of decorating theme homeowners choose. For example, bugs like dragonflies or lady bugs would make good choices for the homeowner who wants a yard filled with delicate, colorful insects.

Types

• Yard art can be as simple as rocks painted like lady bugs or as elaborate as welded metal butterflies, stained glass moths or yard art that is hung on the fence. For example, artwork that replicates traditional paintings in look, but is outfitted for the outdoors, allows a homeowner to create a bug and insect gallery in the backyard on a back fence or wall.

Considerations

• Because some of this art is fragile, especially art made from materials like terracotta, be careful when hanging it on a fence or in a high traffic area of the yard. For example, a dog jumping against the fence will knock a piece of garden art off the fence and break it.
