#1 – Handmade Linen Plant Pot Cover

I spotted these linen, canvas, and leather plant pot covers this week and couldn’t decide which one I like the best – so I included several of them here to share with you. Aren’t they great?!

I love that you can purchase a plant in its plain plastic nursery pot, then drop the pot into one of these pot covers for a distinctive look. When it’s time to water your plant, just lift it out of the cover, water and drain, then slip it back into the cover. Easy peasy!

There are many different colors and styles to choose from in this handmade shop based out of Australia – you’re sure to find one that compliments your decor.

I like these pot covers so much, I think they could be used for other things as well. For example, use a large and a small cover for your next backyard party – the large cover could hold paper plates, napkins, and cups while the smaller cover could hold forks, spoons, and straws. It would be a fun and unique way to hold these items.

I also think these pot covers would make excellent gift bags! Just pop your special gift into the bag – perhaps a plant – and tuck a bit of tissue paper around the gift for a nice surprise. These pot covers would make fun Easter baskets as well!

Use one of the pot covers on a bathroom vanity to hold hand towels or a roll or two of toilet paper. So many creative uses!


#2 – Vintage Green Glass Pedestal Bowls

While looking for a vintage bowl for Easter decor, I stumbled on these green glass pedestal bowls and fell in love with them. I spotted three of them that I think would look beautiful together. Use these three bowls on a center island as fruit bowls, or to hold after-school snacks, or even to tame the clutter that accumulates on countertops.

Set the bowls together on a mantel for an interesting display. Use the bowls on a dining room table as vases for fresh cut flowers. Place all three bowls on a bathroom vanity and fill with hand soap, cotton balls, and other small toiletries.

Each of these bowls is a vintage find – if you like them – grab them quick before someone else buys them! Just click each image for more details.


#3 – Green Sunflowers

Not all sunflowers are yellow. Check out these beautiful green sunflowers! Oh my!

Plant these Sun-Fill Green Sunflower seeds in your garden and not only are you bringing drama to your yard, you can also cut the blossoms and enjoy them indoors. The flowers grow to around 4-inches in diameter so are more compact than most sunflowers – making for a gorgeous bouquet.

The plants grow to around 5-feet tall. Plant them in containers for your porch or patio for interesting front door decor. Or plant them in the ground in a spiral and make a sunflower fort for your kids. Very unique!

Put together a bouquet to give to a friend – it’s sure to make them smile.


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!
