#1 – Rainbow Capiz Shell Windchime

This rainbow windchime is perfect for a yard or patio. The windchime is handmade of natural seashells and bamboo wood. The translucent capiz seashells give off a calming, relaxing sound in the breeze.

Hang the windchime on a deck, porch, or patio for a pop of color and interest. The windchime would also look nice hung in an entryway by your front steps. If you prefer, hang it from a tree next to your house or in a garden for added color and dimension.

I would love to hang this windchime on a shepherd hook in our firepit where it would reflect the fire at night and give off a soft sound.

This windchime would also look lovely hung in a bathroom or bedroom window.


#2 – Outdoor Wood Planter Bench

Wow! This wood planter bench is less than $140! The bench is made of Meranti wood with a teak oil finish. The bench has two planter boxes on either end. This bench would work great on a patio, deck, or balcony – just add your favorite outdoor plants.  If you prefer, you could also place this bench in a garden – a relaxing place to rest and enjoy being surrounded by your flowers or vegetables.

While this bench is made to withstand the outdoors, it could also be used as a unique bench in an entryway. Just drop your favorite potted houseplant into the planter boxes for a great look – palm trees or ficus trees would look right at home, as would tall pots of sansevierias.

This bench would also work well in a bedroom. Place it at the foot of the bed and use the planter boxes to hold throw pillows and extra blankets, or toys if used in a child’s room. You could also put the bench beneath a window for a quick window seat. So many ways to use the bench!


#3 – Color Changing Solar Globe

I spotted another color changing solar globe – perfect for any landscape, or even for indoor use! I bought one of these two years ago, and a different one years before that – and have enjoyed having a globe like this nestled in our landscaping rocks for over 20 years now. I really love the added interest this globe brings to a yard!

Use the globe in your landscaping, or place it on a deck or patio, or even on a patio table for subtle mood lighting.

Of course, you don’t have to put this in your landscaping to enjoy it – if you place it next to a sunny window to charge it up during the day, you could use this globe indoors as well.

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!
