The Carlos Montano Garden Art Studio


Four Winds Planter
At Green Meadows we like to garden.  In the cold, the heat, the wind, and especially on a warm, spring day, we like to garden.  But we are not only about gardening.  We have many interests.  Sometimes we even like adventure.  On February 20th, we have an appointment at the studio of Carlos Montano in Fairburn, Georgia.  Those that want to participate can meet at the garden at 8:45 on Wednesday the 20th and caravan south of Atlanta to his studio.  Carlos produces beautiful garden art to enhance your garden. You will find incredible planters, bird baths, statuary and more.  He also reproduces unique pieces created by the late Atlanta artist Christine Sibley.   His work is very well known in Atlanta and it is not sold in stores.

Magnolia Stepping Stone
I know you will be pleased with the quality and also with the pricing.  Several of us went in October and came home with unique pieces.  I have pictures of several pieces that I purchased and you can go to his website, Carlos Montano Studio .   The website only gives you a small sample of the items he has available and you cannot appreciate the variety and quality from the pictures on the web.  Carlos promised that in February as he prepares for spring, the studio has more items available than at any other time of the year.

Garden Wall Plaque
      Those that would like to join us need to email me at our Green Meadows email address so I can have a head count of who is going and how many vehicles will be needed.  Trucks and suv’s are great as they allow more room for bringing things back.  We will plan a nice stop for lunch and make this a fun outing.     If you like garden art, you don’t want to miss this trip.
