Outdoor Elf with Birdhouse Resin Ornament - Green & Red

This cheerful outdoor elf ornament brings a smiling face to the porch, the garden or the front step through the festive weeks. He stands 71cm tall and measures 18.5cm wide and 18.5cm deep, so he gives real height on a slim footprint. Made from resin, he wears a green coat with three red buttons, a red collar trimmed with gold bobbles and red cuffs over grey mittens. A red pointed hat with a white pompom and a green zigzag band sits over his brown hair and pointed ears, his grin shows the tip of his tongue, and he holds a little brown birdhouse at his side.

As a garden ornament he suits a front door, a porch, a patio or a sheltered corner of the garden, where his height lets him be seen from the path. He is just as at home indoors: stand him beside the Christmas tree, at the foot of the stairs or in a hallway, and his narrow cone of a body fits a corner most decorations would leave bare. The green and red colouring sits happily with a traditional festive scheme, and the birdhouse he carries keeps a little of the garden about him wherever he stands.

He is made from resin, sometimes called polystone, with painted detail picking out his face, buttons, mittens and birdhouse, and his cone body stands upright on its own on a flat surface. Care is simple: dust him with a soft dry cloth and wipe away any marks with a damp cloth, then let him dry. Outdoors, we would choose a level, sheltered spot and bring him inside when the weather turns harsh, which is good practice for any painted ornament. For a warm welcome, set him by the door beside a wreath and a lantern, and let him greet everyone who calls through December.
