Lots of ornaments or just a few special ones.
I have lots...
Do you like handmade or bought?
Do you have a yard decoration that was made from anything that wasn't originally intended for yard use.
I have seen old screen doors used in a garden, which is awesome.

Not too many. Most of mine are actually old farm machinery types of things. I have wagon wheels, old mill stones, old hay rakes and mowing machines and lots of the smaller hand tools and plows. If we didn't like on a farm, I know my yard would be considered tacky.

We have a few. I am waiting to find a matching set of wagon wheels. We will use them as ends for our bench. I saw one a few years ago and it was unique. Not tacky at all. Of course, we have some birdhouses, 1 birdbath that is currently holding a huge pot of mums. I like homemade! I bought a book at a library sale that has such projects in it. One that I really liked was using broom handles and the top half of liter bottles to make candle holders. They were painted to match the outside decor, filled with sand and the votive candles were placed in the sand. Was really a very creative idea.
