#1 – Outdoor Dinnerware Set

Let’s party! This outdoor dinnerware set will definitely set the mood for a great outdoor party or get-together. The wild and colorful designs just scream ‘Summer!’

Use this set of plants and bowls for your next BBQ. Because each piece is a different design, it will be easy for guests to keep track of which plate is theirs. These plants and bowls would also be fun to use to serve snacks and treats on the patio with a cold glass of hand-squeezed lemonade. You could even use these pieces in your home decor – use the plates as saucers under your houseplants and use the bowls as unique vases holding flower heads from flowers from your garden. Lots of fun ways to use this set!

This set is available for a limited time. Hurry and get yours before they sell out!

#2 – Flat Weave Floral Area Rug

This floral area rug has that great distressed vintage look.

Imagine this rug on your front porch entry – a great look for Summer! This rug would also look fabulous on a deck or patio, surrounded by containers filled with flowering annuals – your own garden oasis. Use the rug on your lawn for a Summer day picnic – don’t forget a vase of flowers from your garden! Of course, you could use this rug indoors as well – it would look awesome in a bedroom or boho-inspired bathroom.

There are other uses for this rug as well. Use the rug on a rope hammock to give the hammock a unique look. Cover a patio chair or lounge chair with the rug to bring a pop of color to your area. You could even use the rug as a tablecloth on a picnic table or patio table – nothing like lots of flowers! How would you use this rug?

#3 – Black Planter in Hairpin Leg Stand

This black planter in hairpin leg stand has lots of clever uses! Of course you can use this planter for its intended purpose, and it will look gorgeous holding one of your houseplants, or plants on a deck or patio. But there are other uses, as well.

Use the planter at a BBQ or picnic to hold utensils and rolled napkins. You could also turn this planter into a fun vase – just slip in a short beverage glass filled with water and add fresh-cut flowers. It would make a great centerpiece on a dining room table or on a picnic table. Fill the planter with sand (or rice), then add sparklers for a 4th of July display – and light the sparklers at dusk. Add a large pillar candle and you have a unique candle holder for your porch or patio – perfect for outdoor nights spent stargazing.

How about you? Did you spot something online this week that you love? Share in a comment below!

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!
