When I first started Garden Gnomes Etc., it was probably one of the toughest projects that I had the pleasure to create. It was so different from being a senior maintenance specialist installing major plating lines for close to 25 years. My web site company wanted me to list around 500 products just to start with. With my vast experience and hobby of plants and water gardening and my wife's hobby of painting ceramics at least I had an idea or direction to follow. I then listed hundreds if not thousands of garden products from cement to fiberglass fountains, many pond products, all kinds of resin statues to fire bowls, daybeds and patio furniture. After the dust settled I manage to create an everyday, dime a dozen water garden pond store that commonly occupies the internet. After evaluating my products I soon saw my love for water gardening disappear with many common cheap products that are offered from many other sources on the net. I then decided for some drastic changes and brought in a large selection of products that I now offer to my own garden and constructed the most incredible waterfall garden experience called Everything Waterfalls, It was perfect for taking my own pictures and videos for my social media networks. I also felt that an every day white background showing a picture of a product was so uneventful and not very appealing to buy from. Also by building a landscaping display I could offer hard to find experience and give excellence in customer service while really focusing on my products. I soon discontinued cheaper type products that conflicted with what I was presenting while realizing that I would never put them in my own yard. The main idea I wanted to share is loving what you sell while at the same time adding real value to your supplier's products. Finally a well planned site where you can paint your way through the garden gate with a main feature of artificial rock ponds and waterfalls, secondary features from rain chains, wind spinners and chimes and then personalize your garden by painting any of our devilishly funny gnomes, trolls and forest friends all here to help you achieve your own easy to do magical garden setting.
