#1 – Large Leaning Mirror

This large leaning mirror not only looks great, it’s affordable, too!

This mirror can be leaned against the wall or it can be hung on the wall – whichever you prefer. I wanted to bring more light into our upstairs landing area, so I added this leaning mirror to the wall behind some of my plants to make the space brighter. I also like how the mirror reflects the plants – a very inviting look.

This mirror would look nice in an entryway – large enough for you to check yourself before leaving for the day. It would also be a nice addition to a dark hallway to make the space brighter. You could also use the mirror in a plant room or behind a plant stand to capture more natural light for your plants.


#2 – Tilted Planters Made of Bamboo

I am in love with these bamboo tilted planters!

I was trying to find a really fun and unique planter to hold the Irish Moss I purchased. These tilted pots are perfectly perfect! I love that the pots are made out of bamboo, that they are an off-white natural color, and especially that they are tilted! Each planter has a drain plug that can be removed if needed, or used in place. I planned on putting these two Irish Moss plants on a coffee table on our front patio once the weather warms up, but I like them so much, I’m thinking of keeping them inside as a houseplant!

These tilted planters not only make any plant look fun and whimsical, they can be used for other purposes as well. For example, set them on your dining room table, add water and fresh-cut flowers and you have a very cool centerpiece display. The planters could also be used at a backyard party or BBQ to hold napkins and utensils. Set one of the planters on a patio table then add water and a water lily or water lettuce for a mini water garden. Use one of the planters on a vanity in a bathroom to hold small washcloths or other toiletries. So many fun uses!


#3 – Large Bulb Outdoor Light String

This outdoor light string is so full of character!

I love that this light string has bulbs that are around 3″ diameter – this helps them stand out so they look great during the day as well as at night. The light string can be added to, making it as long as needed. The light is a nice warm light, which also helps set the mood for those warm Spring and Summer evenings on the patio.

Use the lights on a porch or patio as soft mood lighting. If you prefer, you could wrap the lights around the railing of a deck or along a fence. The lights also work well draped in a tree to make a focal point in your yard. String the lights among shepherd hooks in a garden for interesting lights at night. Wherever you decide to use the light string, you’re sure to enjoy the lights!


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!
