“I started out from my garage. As the business grew, and my wife’s and neighbors' patience stretched, it was time to move to an industrial space. There I can bang and grind at all hours of the night. It's 1,000 square feet of pure metalworking nirvana.”
Chris Crooks took a winding road to get to where he is now—creating imaginative lawn sculptures inspired by the Southwest landscape he calls home. After graduating from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Chris worked in advertising, then ran a printing business with his wife, while painting during his free time. It was when the couple moved to Tucson that Chris collaborated with a metal art manufacturer and fell in love with the art form. He now designs and creates sculptures in his studio at the foot of the Santa Rita Mountains. "I always wanted to make a living doing something genuinely enjoyable," he says. "To get up in the morning raring to go, and never having enough time to do everything you want to do."

Excellent Gift for my Flamingo Loving Garden Loving Sister
I gifted this to her for her 45th birthday knowing she is planning to move from New England to FL next year. This is a piece that can transition with her as she learns how to garden down south!

Didn't last a year
I was so excited when I ordered all 3. I did not put them away for any season. They were out until Spring and when I checked them last week, they are trash. Crumbly metal and faded metal.
Response from merchant
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the Garden Peeper Plant Stakes. These pieces are made from steel that is intentionally rusted by hand to achieve their unique look. Over time, especially when left outdoors year-round, that rusting process can continue and may lead to the texture and wear you’re seeing. If you’d like to refresh and protect them, gently brushing off loose rust and applying a clear sealant can help preserve the finish and extend their life. We’ve also reached out to you directly to see how we can further assist and help make this right.

Great Mothers Day Gift
This was shipped quickly and my mom absolutely loves it. She has sent me multiple pictures of her flamingo in her garden. It looks like a durable addition and it definitely looks classier than the plastic pink flamingo garden decor of my childhood.

A little bit of garden whimsy
I thought my wife would like it. But I didn't know that I would find it so fun to have the silly little giraffe silhouette staring back at me.

What size in the animal part and how long is the stake? Also curious how long these last in humid Florida where everything rusts quickly.
Verified reply from Michelle
Hello! The animal part of the peeper is approximately 12 inches and the stake portion is approximately 15 inches. If you want to extend the life of the finish to last a little longer in extremely humid weather, we recommend sealing the product with some sort of clear coat/spray can sealer. This product does not come sealed.
