I would think your wooden chairs etc would be an ornament.
I love Dollar Tree and Dollar General both and have gotten a lot of my things from both places. No matter how many I have I am always looking for more

Here is a lawn ornament I wanted to buy from our store very badly but it was close to $200 and I was afraid someone would steal it.

I don't have to worry about anyone stealing anything but also don't have anything all that expensive. I have a cast iron Mr & Mrs Frog on a bench and a chair that Susie bought me couple Christmas' ago. They were not cheap but not that much. I have lots of shells/rocks at base of lighthouse light where I have pansies poked in between I can see them as well as Gina's panter and my crab pot and all diff colored pansies and so pretty.

Sueanne, I love your glass ball on the stand. I like it because it is smaller, not huge like some of them. I could not have a big one here due to daycare kids and flying balls etc.

I don't have any lawn ornaments per se other than my bird bath in the front yard and one in the back yard. I do have a lot of flowers in containers though that I put on my deck and front steps. I have several very large cast iron pots that I got from my grandmother that I plant petunias in (just like she used to do) and then deck plants that I plant marigolds in. In some of the other cast iron pots I plant red geraniums. I love having lots of flowers around in the summer, I also still have my two shepard's hooks where my bird feeders hang.

Good morning it is nice and post Springy pre Summer out there now. I hope to get out on porch and listen to my birds as well as observe some of them eating. Either take my Debbie Macomber book out and read or coupons to clip for Norma. Mayt end up doing both lol. Happy day all

I made my own 'gazing balls' last year out of bowling balls spray painted with metalic paint. They still look great!
