SPI Thursday - Garden Sculptures with Bluetooth Speakers

Have you ever enjoyed the outdoor music of an open-air shopping center and wished you could create the same ambience at home?  And wouldn't it be even better if you could do it without expensive rewiring?

SPI Home has created a collection of garden sculptures and smartphone holders with speakers powered by Bluetooth technology.

Item #33828 - Frog Bluesman Garden Sculpture with Bluetooth Speaker

This is a unique category to offer your customers who are re-landscaping or just in the market to add a little personality to their gardens.  Even better is that it's also a functional garden décor element and not just a "pretty."

Each piece is compatible with any Bluetooth-enabled device so your customer can enjoy their favorite music from apps such as iTunes, Pandora and Spotify.  You don't have to be an expert in Bluetooth technology to sell them - an instruction card is included with each piece.

The speakers have an impressive sound and range.  We learned this in the showroom when someone who probably shops at Best Buy decided to test the volume button. 

Add atmosphere to your next gathering, or treat yourself when you're relaxing and enjoying some solitude.  Just be considerate of your neighbors and don't make them wonder if you're operating an underground nightclub in your backyard.       

Item #33871 - Resting Gnome with Bluetooth Speaker

The garden sculpture speakers are suitable for outdoor use. 

The Frog Bluesman (top photo) is aluminum and measures 20.5" tall.  Retail it for $399.

The Resting Gnome (above photo) is fashioned from polystone and stands 18" tall.  You can retail this one for $299.

What is polystone, you ask?

Polystone is a compound made up largely of polyurethane resin mixed with powdered stone additives that give it added weight and the porcelain or "stone-like" feel.  Polystone is durable and is highly effective at capturing minute sculptural details and maintaining a sharp paint finish. Unlike porcelain which is fired in an oven, Polystone is a cold-cast material in which no heat is used in the manufacturing process, resulting in much greater variations of paint finish. 

Item #34009 - Octopus Cellphone Holder with Bluetooth Speaker

SPI also offers whimsical cell phone holders with Bluetooth speakers.  These pieces are smaller and crafted of resin, so they are best suited for indoor use or in a sheltered outdoor location.

The Octopus holder (pictured above) stands 7.5" tall with a 9" diameter footprint.  This one can retail for $139.

Other cell phone holder designs include a mermaid, frog, bear, alligator and a penguin.
