Inspiration by Orla Kiely

Whether it’s her clothing or housewares, I’m often inspired by Orla Kiely‘s simple, funky designs.

I found these creepy garden/yard statues at Target for $39.99. Though they look stony, they are actually a lighter weight (but still substantial) material.

I’m hoping they might be on sale, and on my patio by Saturday.
