#1 – Copper Rain Chain

Add a touch of flair to your home or garden with this copper rain chain.

Rain chains can be hung from the gutters on your home and used in place of a downspout. When it rains, the chain guides the rain down to the ground or into a pot and makes the most relaxing sound.

This rain chain also looks beautiful in a garden. Hang it from a tree, tall fence post, or shepherd hook and direct the rain to your flowers or vegetables – so elegant and unique!

#2 – Hummingbird Thumbtacks – HumTacks

These hummingbird thumbtacks would make a regular bulletin board look so much better!

Shaped like little hummingbirds, these pushpins are a fun way to bring your feathered friends into your home or office. Use the ‘humtacks’ in your office to hold your to-do lists, photos, and inspirations on any corkboard. Use the humtacks in a kitchen to hold your grocery list or meal plans for the week. Add a small corkboard to a guest bathroom and use the humtacks to hold fun quotes and sayings – an expected surprise for your guests. You could also use these hummingbird pins as embellishments on gift packages – just wrap your gift in a cardboard box and use the pins to hold gift tags, ribbons, and cards in place. So many fun ways to use these pins!


#3 – Copper Terrarium

This copper terrarium has so many fun uses!

Set the terrarium on a deck or patio and fill with your favorite plants – succulents, fairy plants, and moss look beautiful in this terrarium. You could also use the terrarium in your home as a mini greenhouse for your humidity-loving plants, such as ferns and calathea. The terrarium is just the right size to use on a vanity in a bathroom, on a coffee table or side table, or even on a shelf.

This glass and copper terrarium can also be used on a center island or kitchen counter as a place to store tasty treats. Serve your Sunday morning muffins in the terrarium and let your family help themselves to brunch. This terrarium can also be used for outdoor BBQs to hold condiments or utensils and keep them protected from flying pests. And, you could also use this terrarium as a gift basket – just place beautifully wrapped gifts inside then add a gift tag to the top and you have a memorable gift – especially perfect for plant-lovers or gardeners. Lots of clever uses – be creative!

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!
