Anyone who is looking to “attract more nature to their garden” may be tempted by a “charming” hand-painted decorative piece currently on offer at Home Bargains. It won’t break the bank at under £15, but it looks similar to a more expensive version from a famous retailer.
Home Bargains is selling the Jardin Glass Bird Bath for £12.99, available both online via home delivery and in stores. Home Bargains describes the piece as a standout addition to any garden, boasting bold detailing and vibrant colours that are as ‘pretty’ as they are ‘practical’.
Describing the bird bath online, a Home Bargains spokesperson said: “Turn your garden into a cosy spot for wildlife with the Jardin Glass Bird Bath. This hand-painted, frost-resistant beauty gives birds a perfect place to drink and bathe.
“It comes with a sturdy metal stand [and] is easy to assemble. A great way to add charm and attract more nature to your garden.”
The budget-friendly ornament is one of the new additions to Home Bargains’ garden range, gradually appearing on shelves as the seasons shift from winter into spring. The full collection can be found online here, reports the Mirror.

Compared to alternatives elsewhere, this is a real bargain, as painted glass bird baths typically cost considerably more. Amazon, for instance, is selling the Alpine Corporation 18″ Glass Birdbath Topper at £82.98 — nearly £70 more than the Home Bargains alternative.
The Amazon alternative boasts an 18-inch (45.7cm) design with butterfly and floral styles similar to those of the Home Bargains option, providing considerably more room than the budget-friendly option (35.5cm). It’s worth noting, though, that the Amazon product is just for the bird bath bowl itself, with the supporting stand sold separately.
At £13, the Home Bargains bird bath comes complete with its metal stand, reaching a height of 49cm. This height is crucial, as it allows our feathered visitors to drink and wash safely, kept away from potential threats such as cats and foxes.

Wildlife experts have stressed that birds rely on support from gardeners during the winter months for their survival. This period sees natural food supplies dwindle, as harsh weather poses serious risks to bird populations.
Beyond offering bird-friendly food, gardeners looking to attract birds might consider installing a bird bath. These additions provide visiting birds with access to fresh, clean water for drinking and bathing.
Water becomes a scarce resource for birds during intense weather, including winter and summer. If your garden has water, then a bird is more likely to want to stay and feed there.
Garden owners with these features should understand their value to wildlife throughout the entire year. For more news about maintaining a garden, click here.
