Copper Planters Offer Diversity for Outdoor Spaces

What Better Way to Show Your Taste – Use Copper Planters for All Your Outdoor Needs!

Got ice? BackyardBargain.com has the copper planter to hold it.

Got beer? BackyardBargain.com has the copper planter to keep ‘em chilled.

Got fireworks? BackyardBargain.com has the copper planter to hang on to them.

Got fresh summer fruit? BackyardBargain.com has . . . well, you’ve got the idea!

Copper planters are beautiful and useful. Not just for your favorite greenery anymore, BackyardBargain.com encourages its customers to take full advantage of these diverse containers.

“One woman bought a dozen copper planters in different sizes for her outdoor wedding,” said Rajan Shah, BackyardBargain.com’s V.P.Operations. “She used them to hold live gardenias, disposable cameras, even cards on the gift table. And she’s just as excited about using them in her own garden after the wedding because she likes them so much!”

A dozen copper planters may be a few too many for your yard, so BackyardBargain.com recommends starting with one or two planters. If you’re not confident in your decorating skills start by using them as planters. Then, as you enjoy them in your outdoor space, let your imagination go.

Need a bird bath in that corner? Let’s use the copper planter! Oh, the family’s coming – put the kids’ yard toys in that other copper planter. How about chilling Uncle Joe’s lemonade in the other copper planter?

BackyardBargain.com’s copper planters are available in three styles: fluted square, round and flared square. The unfinished copper will develop a beautiful patina over time, or can be polished to retain its natural color.

The best part of using copper planters in your landscaping scheme? When the weather turns cold they can huddle beside you inside, still holding your favorite plants, magazines, beverages . . . .

Hose Bowl: A New Yard Accessory

Would you like to place hose bowl in your garden? Of course they have their place in the world, those hose reels, because they serve a purpose: they keep those unwieldy hoses conveniently wrapper together in one spot. Pretty utilitarian, but they work fairly well. Not very pretty, though, made of durable plastic in colors that could be dubbed Yard Weeds & Blah.

What would you say to a hose holder that is more than utilitarian? One that emphasizes your good taste and complements your attention to detail in your yard – your outdoor living space? Well, we’ve got it. (Drum roll, please.) Introducing the Hose Bowl!

It’s much more than utilitarian, and so much more than just a hose holder. Check this out:

  • Hose Bowls look a little like happy donuts: each one is 18” around and 12” deep, with a middle hub to wrap your hose around.

That’s right – they’re not very big. You can almost wrap your arms around one. Now imagine all the convenient places you can set them in your yard.

  • Hose Bowls are made of steel and finished with powder coating, a painting process that allows the finish to last nearly forever.

That means no repainting every few years because they can’t take the seasonal changes. Hose Bowls not only keep your hoses but they keep their good looks too!

  • You won’t believe this: each beautiful, compact Hose Bowl holds up to 100 feet of your garden hose!

Amazing – almost like they have hidden pockets they tuck all that length into.

  • And don’t fret: the drainage holes will get rid of any excess water from the hoses and Mother Nature.

Yes, not just beautiful but smart too! Any excess water from your hose simple drains away. Rain showers aren’t a problem either: after a storm you don’t have to run out to empty the Bowl – you can find something fun to do instead!

BackyardBargain.com carries Hose Bowls in two fashionable finishes, Caramel and Dark Chocolate, so choosing the right one for your yard is easy. Go ahead – use Hose Bowls in your back yard and enjoy the season in style!

Copper Planters – A Sweet Little Landscaping Secret

Copper planter is a sweet little landscaping secret for your garden. Now you can give your yard that professionally finished look easily – just upgrade to copper planters.

Think about this: what does more to jazz something up than a few carefully chosen details? That’s what copper planters can do for your outdoor spaces. These shiny beauties can turn your landscaping from nice to fantastic simply by sitting quietly around your yard.

Today’s outdoor spaces have evolved well beyond a manicured lawn and a few chairs. In fact, with outdoor kitchens the hottest thing under the sun, people are putting as much consideration into the details of their outdoor spaces as their indoor spaces.

And that’s where online stores come in and going strong, their carefully chosen selection of copper planters is all you need to add the finishing details to your carefully planned outdoor space. Available in small, medium and larger sizes, you can set them individually or group them together – whatever works best for your space.

One great advantage to utilizing copper planters in landscaping schemes is the wide variety of other copper yard and garden accessories available. You can buy matching copper torches, bird baths and more. And for that new outdoor kitchen? You’ve got to check out hammered copper sinks!

Copper planters add a natural “wow” to any decorating style without overwhelming it. They pair beautifully with black iron, stone, glass . . . whatever you can imagine. And if left to their natural inclinations, these copper planters will develop a beautiful natural patina over time.

This little landscaping secret is even greater when you consider how little effort it takes.  The hardest part will be deciding what size copper planters you want to use and where to place them.

Can you see it yet? You know that look of admiration and envy on your neighbors’ faces when they see your “new” yard!

How To Use Outdoor Decor To Fall In Love With Your Backyard?

A great yard is like a fabulously decorated home: well thought out, designed and put together.  Tiki Torches is the primary element for making that great yard happen.

If you’re staring at a pathetic excuse for a yard or just want to change the decor Tiki Torches, be sure to start with a plan. Answer the questions below to decide on your plan, and you’ll be on the path to creating your perfect backyard living space.

What’s your style?

With the extensive array of outdoor decor and Outdoor Tiki Torches available today, this is your first and most important decision.  Have you ever fallen in love with something in a store just to bring it home and discover it doesn’t fit in anywhere?  So look at what’s available in outdoor décor first – the styles are nearly endless, and you may fall in love with something you’ll want to design your backyard around.

What do you want to use the space for?

This is the second most important question to answer.  Talk to everyone in the house and brainstorm together.  You may want to keep the entire outdoor space in thick, green grass just for putting practice.  Or you may want to have a decor for kids and another decor for adults.  Do you cook outdoors, have a green thumb?  How about an area for your pets?  Want to show off your collection of garden statues?

What color is your, uh, umbrella?

Or outdoor serving dishes?  Or favorite chair cushions?  Maybe you’ve found that fabulous yard thing that decides the color for you  Outdoor Tiki Torches items can easily help you pick a palate.  Remember to consider colors already outside:  siding and trim on existing buildings and fences, landscaping, maybe even the color of a neighbor’s garage.

Lighting – huh?

Yes, think about this – don’t make the mistake of forgetting about outdoor lighting till it’s too late.  Plan for brighter lighting where you walk, cook and play, and softer lighting for entertaining and conversation.  What about pond lighting – do you want lighting in the water, around it or maybe hanging over it?  Outdoor lighting options today are fantastic – you can choose from traditional wired fixtures, solar power, candles, lanterns and an expanded selection of torches, including a new table top design.
