Beautiful Fountains - Art and Gift Ideas

I think fountains and the running water they produce add a unique touch to any garden or pond. At the left is a picture of the Pond Fountain at Stone Mountain Lodge, in Lyons, Colorado (along with 2 of the ducks). This fountain provides a focal point at the Pond as well as the soothing sound of water falling gently down to the pond's surface

While not everyone who has a garden has a pond, there are many, many beautiful fountains for the large and small garden. A beautiful garden fountain will give your garden that focal point plus the sound of gently falling water to calm nerves and lift spirits.

I've suggested a few of my favorites below.

If you don't have a garden of your own but love fountains, then I have recommended 2 great books about the Fountains and Gardens of Versailles for your reading pleasure. You will also discover a few posters of beautiful fountains too!
