Will resin garden statues crack in freezing weather?

Quality resin garden statues are formulated for freeze/thaw. They survive winters well as long as they're not submerged in water (which can freeze inside hollow voids). VEOJEIN's outdoor statuary is rated for freezing temperatures.

Should I bring decorations inside for winter?

Statues, flags, and stepping stones, leave them out. They're built for it. Terracotta pots, glass orbs, and ceramic accents, bring those in (freeze damage is real on porous materials).

How do I keep solar lights working through cloudy winters?

Pick lights with replaceable rechargeable batteries (most are NiMH AA). After a stretch of cloudy days, the batteries deplete faster than they recharge. A simple battery swap once mid-winter keeps everything running.

What's the single highest-impact thing I can add this winter?

One large focal-point statue, lit at dusk with a $20 solar uplight, viewable from your most-used window. That single combo upgrades your winter view more than anything else for the money.

When should I start prepping the winter look?

Mid-November in most US zones. Get the flag swapped, the statue cleaned, and the lights tested before the first real snow. Doing it in advance means the first snowfall makes everything look great instantly.
