#1 – Ceramic Planter on Metal Stand
These industrial looking planters definitely caught my eye this past week! There are three sizes available in this ceramic planter with metal stand – and I think all three would look great together on a front step or patio.
I love the weathered look of the ceramic and the metal stands are a bonus! These planters can be used indoors for your houseplants, or used outside for your Summer annuals. Sweet!
#2 – Water Hyacinth Herringbone Baskets
This set of water hyacinth herringbone baskets is so affordable! They’re also very versatile!
Use the baskets indoors to hold throw pillows and throw blankets when not in use. They can also be used to hold children’s toys and keep them organized. Use one basket in a bedroom as a small clothes hamper and the other in a bathroom. The leather handles make the baskets easy to carry from room to room.
I think this set of baskets would also be a perfect addition to a deck or patio! They could be used to carry beverages and snacks outside to your guests.
How would you use this set of baskets?
#3 – Flower Press
Now you can preserve all your beautiful Spring and Summer flowers with this microwave flower press!
We’ve probably all dried flowers on paper, pressed inside a large book. And that method works very well – it just takes a while for the flowers to fully dry out. With this microwave flower press, the flowers dry out very quickly, and look even better because the colors don’t fade as much.
Once you have a bunch of dried flowers, you can use them as embellishments in crafts, in journals, in candles and soap, and more! If the flowers were edible, you could also use them to brighten up a cake or ice cream, as well.
This flower press can also be used to press leaves from your favorite houseplants. A great way to highlight the plants in a plant diary or journal.

You can find product links to all three things on Pinterest at Things I Like and you can find some of these things in my Amazon Marketplace Storefront.
NOTE: Since my job is an online store and mentoring ecommerce business owners, I spend a LOT of time online each day. While most of that time is spent working, I do occasionally stumble across websites, articles, and cool things that I really like. I save these things to a Pinterest board, so someday when I have some free time, I can go back to that board and enjoy the things I found. I enjoy sharing these fun finds with you, and hope you find them interesting, too!
