An amazing work of art!
I knew Fiacre was an Irish saint, but didn’t know anything about him otherwise or that he was designated the Patron Saint of gardening.<br />A few years ago I’d seen one in a garden center. I decided then I would like to get one to go with the St. Francis statue in our yard, but didn’t purchase it as it was pricey there.<br />Fast forward a few years and we’re trying to rebuild our home post Harvey.  Our lawn & back garden were a mess from being flooded.  The plants were fairly sad looking. We needed all the help we could get, and who better to inspire us than the patron Saint of gardeners!<br />I was pleased to see this one on Amazon for an affordable price and showed it to my husband. So our children gave this to me as a Christmas present and it is so very very sweet. I absolutely love it! And with the little red bird, dog, and cat on it, he goes well with St Francis and is too cute!<br />In addition, it is extremely well made and very sturdy.  Many garden statues are made of resin and don’t last well and are impossible to repair if broken. This statue is very sturdy and heaven forbid it get broken, would be easy enough to be repair and very much worth it.<br />It feels very special, has beautiful detail, and I love that is was hand made by an artist in a nearby state.
