When you are getting furniture for the garden one of the main decisions that need to be made is what you are going to use it for. Teak garden furniture is one of the most popular varieties partly because of its strength but also because of its aesthetic appeal, this is one of the reasons why it is used to make teak garden tables.
These excellent forms of furniture can make lovely additions to your home and garden, however, their size means that they often take up a lot of space. In today’s blog, we have a look at some of the different ornaments that you can decorate your teak garden table with and their different uses.
- A water feature
Water features are not only reserved for the garden. There is also a thriving market for mini water features that can make good aesthetically pleasing additions to your teak garden table. If you do buy one then make sure it is a good size and that the table is located close enough to the water supply to give the water feature enough flow.
- A laptop stand
Okay, now hear us out on this one. With more and more people being asked to work from home another great and practical ornament that could work on a teak garden table is a laptop stand! This may be one to think about for next summer but studying/working outside has a number of mental and physical health benefits that can add value to you and your family. We recommend going for a wooden laptop stand and keeping it out of the rain to make sure it lasts as long as it can.
- A herb garden
Whilst herb gardens can work well in greenhouses and conservatories, they are also good for teak garden tables if you have a suitably sized planter. Herbs like brazil, parsley, and dill all grow well in small planters and this can add a much-needed touch of greenery to your table and patio area.
- A chessboard
If you want to stand out from the crowd with your teak garden table ornaments, a waterproof chessboard is a great shout. These are practical and can be used if you have guests who are into the hobby and they can also add an interesting look to your teak garden table.
- A table statue
If you want to go for a purely aesthetic piece, a small statue could make for a great addition to your teak garden table. The best thing about this ornament is that you can pick from a variety of styles to suit your own personal tastes.
Make sure you buy a quality garden table and ornament
Teak garden tables do not come cheap however the extra quality you get when you pay the premium price will be more than worth it in the long run. Make sure you buy a good quality teak garden table to rest your ornaments on and you will be well on the way to creating a wonderful outside space.
