In the garden, your house is the main focal point.
.
For centuries, this, below, has worked.
.
If something has worked for centuries, there is a reason.
.
And, it will work for you.

Urn on plinth.

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
.
Never had a college instructor or seminar speaker say, In the garden your home is the focal point.
.
Why?
.
What did those 'experts' miss? Paint colors on the home, lighting, hardware, views into windows, style choices, where to correctly site exterior focal points. For starters.
.
Most common question I receive, Where should I put this plant?
.
If only that were the question.
.
Garden design is about where to put a plant?
.
Hardly.

From a chandelier obsessed person, that is one beautiful chandelier! I love the interior pictures that you use to emphasize your thoughts about the exterior.
I saw some beautiful garden urns in a local shop - I think it was Foxgloves - they would look beautiful on pedestals.
URN on plinth………..your right!It always works.
Gorgeous here in the library!
I love that an urn on a plinth signals (to me) the beginning of one thing or the ending of another. Like a great mystery that never completely reveals itself.
