Rustic Wood & Iron Garden Decor

Arbors and Trellises

• Arbors are an economical way of providing a grand entryway to your garden. A gently curving iron arch intertwined with colorful blooms and winding greenery suggests a warm and inviting welcome into your garden. Add a coordinating rustic iron fence combined with an attached gate, enhancing the magical enchantment of your garden oasis. Place a decorative wooden or iron trellis in the midst of your garden and plant a rosebush next to it, resulting in a spectacular vertical display of vivid color.

Benches

• Daydreaming under a shade tree on a hot summer's day is a delightful way to enjoy your garden. Placing a rustic iron bench under a large tree provides a restful place to sit down and relax. A wooden bench finished in a distressed paint is an old, weathered friend that's always ready to greet you. Some rustic bench styles mix iron and wood for a decorative look. Round tree benches wrap around a tree, providing ornamental seating.

Planters

• Large cast-iron planters brimming over with lush, blooming foliage scattered throughout your garden provide colorful focal points as you're strolling along pathways or relaxing on benches. Hang iron flower baskets from metal poles, lining a walkway or bordering a garden patio. Small metal planters resting atop rustic wooden tables inject a burst of color and charm. Attach a wooden planter box under a garden shed's window and fill it with a variety of brightly colored flowering plants, creating a cozy cottage ambiance.

Lighting

• Add a soft evening glow to your garden by hanging decorative rustic lanterns from garden poles or a covered patio. Iron lanterns enclosed with glass sides provide additional safety while candles are burning. For a rustic but glamorous look, hang a candle chandelier from the ceiling of a garden gazebo or covered patio. Place a wrought-iron candle holder on a garden table, creating a special ambiance for evening dining.
