garden houses at Wal*Mart

Posted by arcy (My Page) on

Last winter Walmart had three or four different houses for garden decoration. It was just after Christmas. I decided to wait for the sale. It never came. They were $25.00 each and looked to be maybe a foot square on average. Did anyone get one? I have never seen them in anyones garden. I wish they would resell them. They were sold out before gardening season but they never restocked. And no I could not find them on their web site.

I have seen a number of these at places like Tuesday morning, Gordmans, Ross, Hobby Lobby, etc. Perhaps looking through similar stores near you. Sometimes they are called terraiums or conservatories. Link below.

Here is a link that might be useful: terraiums

The houses I was speaking of were that plastic they make statues out of. They were miniatures of actual houses. They had solar power so the windows glowed at night. There were a few different styles, one was a light house. No churches or I would have grabbed it for my prayer garden. They came and went so fast and no one got any???

Arcy...I completely misread your question. I have a solar pump in the garden and am fascinated with solar....went on a net search. The only one found is in the URL below, it is by HomeTrends which is Walmart. There were a number of windmills and lighthouses which came up on the search. None of the Christmas stores online have anything solar, but perhaps next season.

That is what they looked like. It is odd they never had more. I saw them well over a year ago now.

I wish I had one also.I do have a bird feeder that is stain glass and has a solar light in it.I also have a solar lamp post at the entrance of my front walk and I absolutely love them both.I know I got the lamp post at Big Lots and don't remember about the feeder.I do remember our Walmarts having the ones you are talking about but did not get one.I do have a great hand crafted bird feeder I bought from a flea market.I am sure they sell solar lights at Big lots.Maybe you could craft one and make your own solar house.HMMM,I think you have just given me a great idea...

I looked at Big lots just last week-end. No luck. They are so cute where could they be and why is no one selling them!? Wal*mart got one small shipment in in February!!
