#1 – Victorian Terrarium
This Victorian style terrarium will make every plant look fabulous!
Use the terrarium in an entryway to showcase your rare orchids. Place the terrarium in a bedroom to house your favorite exotic plants. The terrarium would also look fabulous in a bathroom, filled with unique ferns and mosses. Create your own magical fairy garden inside the terrarium, using miniature plants and decor. There are so many ways to use this terrarium!
#2 – Large Solar Chinese Lanterns for Outside
This string of solar Chinese lanterns is perfect for any outdoor space!
We recently hung these lanterns in a tree in our yard for a special Outdoor Garden Dinner Party we hosted. They set the mood perfectly and provided enough soft light that we were able to sit outside under them until the wee hours of the night.
What I especially love about this set is that the globes are 8-inches in diameter! At this size, they’re large enough to make an impact, yet not so large as to detract from other decor pieces in the area. I also love that you can either use the solar panel with a spike or you can clip the solar panel to a tree branch (which is what we did).
Add this set to a tree in your yard, around a patio table umbrella, off the railings of a deck, or on Shepard hooks in a garden. Wherever you place them, they’ll look spectacular! Because they can withstand the elements, you can leave them out from Spring through Fall (I recommend bringing them inside if you get a lot of ice and snow in your area for the Winter). The lights turn on automatically at dusk and last for hours. No batteries needed.
#3 – Adult Tree Swing
Because you are never too old to have fun! Add this adult tree swing to a tree in your backyard and you have a perfect spot to relax. Imagine swinging during the day in the shade of a tree with your favorite book and a chilled beverage. So peaceful! Of course, this swing would also be awesome used at a cabin or lake home, maybe even over the lake. You could even use this swing on your kids swingset, or hang it from under a deck or covered patio. Depending on where you live, you could even hang this swing indoors from the ceiling (just make sure to use the proper bolts into ceiling joists for maximum security).

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!
