Meerkat Statue – Creative Ways to Decorate Your Lawn Or Garden

Curb appeal is something that is very important to a lot of people. The way that a person’s house looks from the street reflects on the person who lives in the house. Landscaping is a huge business in the world today. Much money is spent on cutting the grass and maintaining the lawn so that it always looks the best it can. Many people have spent a small fortune on the gardens that surround their house also. One way to improve the appearance of a garden or lawn is to add statues to them. There are many different choices a person has when they decide to add ornamental statues to their lawn.

They can choose from fountains, benches, garden gnomes and Meerkat statues. What a person decides is based upon their own preferences, but one of the most unique choices is the Meerkat statues. They can give a lawn a one of a kind look that is not seen in many people’s yards.

Meerkats are small mammals from the mongoose family that live in Africa. Many people became aware of them because of the Madagascar movies from a few years back. They look adorable and the statues are just as adorable. The statues are made out of many different products but the most common type is made of resin and painted to make it look like the real thing. They can be formed in a variety of poses so the choice of what to add to your lawn is plentiful. Some of the cutest poses that can be found have the meerkats standing on their hind legs with their heads high in the air.

Other designs have just their heads poking out of a hole in the desert or several meerkats posing together. Meerkat statues can be purchased from many locations. A person can choose to go online or go to a garden center to purchase one. Depending on the size and quality of the statue a person can spend anywhere from a few dollars to several hundred dollars.

There are a few things a person should be aware of about buying statues online. It is sometimes hard to judge the actual size of a statue from a picture. What you might think to be a big enough size is often smaller when you actually get it. Another issue is shipping costs. Statues can be heavy and bulky and might be expensive to ship.
