Locally Handcrafted Nautical Piling Decor with Solar Light

 Realistic shore birds are made of durable plastic and are lifesize.  No wiring is required - each has a solar light at the top. The "welcome" sign can be customized with a house number, name, etc. Contact me to place an order or for custom lettering. Unless you make arrangements, shipping is currently not available for these items. Pickup or local Southern Maryland delivery only. Place these nautical  decorations at your driveway entrance or front door - they look great and the light gives a welcome (and useful) glow after the sun goes down. Each stands approx. 36 - 40" tall.

Using pilings as lawn décor is very popular in fishing communities and homes wishing to convey a nautical theme. I live along the shores of the Chesapeake Bay and I've seen many variations. As I drove around I noticed many people had pilings at their driveway entrances and that got me thinking of different ways I could make attractive lawn ornaments. I started making a few featuring a seagull and solar light, and they became a popular item. I even made some with ducks, shorebirds, and herons. My construction techniques improved, and before long I had friends, coworkers, and local homeowners asking me to make them. Want to see know how to make them yourself?
