#1 – Black Metal Outdoor Planters
These black metal outdoor planters make quite a statement in any landscaping decor. The large square planter looks great on or near a patio, with the large rectangle planter and small rectangle planter on either side of it. Groupings of threes make any space look more interesting.
These planters have drain holes and plugs, so you could use them indoors as well. Fill them with Majesty Palms, Banana Trees, and Elephant Ears to add tropical flair to your outdoor spaces.
We just removed a bunch of overgrown evergreen shrubs from around our patios. With the shrubs gone, I was looking for a few large black planters to put in their place. I was very excited to have found these planters – so much so, that I got three of them in various sizes! I just love their sleek, sophisticated, simple black style.
#2 – Cordless Table Lamp
This cordless table lamp is not only stylish and functional, it has lots of uses, too!
Because they are cordless, you can bring them anywhere you need a spot of light. We have several of these lamps and use them for a variety of things. Because the lamp head is so small, these lamps work perfectly on a dining room table – they provide just the right amount of light, and still allow you to visit with your guests. The lamps also work great on a bar cart when visiting with friends on the patio at night. They’re bright enough to see the things on the cart, but soft enough so you can still see the stars in the night sky. The lamps work well in screen porches, on decks, in gazebos, and even around the pool. They also look nice on a buffet table, adding another element of design to that space. Of course, they also make nice night table lamps, and can even work in bathrooms on a vanity.
The lamps give off cool white light or warm white light, and you can also adjust their brightness. The lamps are made of metal and come in a variety of colors – something for every decor.
#3 – Black and White Outdoor Rug
A black and white outdoor rug fits with any decor, and never goes out of style. When used outside on a patio, you can just sweep it off, vacuum it, or hose it down – so easy to keep clean!
This rug also works great on a deck, in a sun porch, or in a gazebo. You could even use the rug inside in a mudroom entry or laundry room. So many ways to use this versatile rug!

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!
