On Friday we wrote about a mailbox that we absolutely love. It sparked an interesting conversation about pricing, so we thought we'd show you four picks for mailboxes (from Chiasso) for under $100. ...
People don't often find themselves looking for mailboxes. However, we recently did. And guess what? There aren't a lot of options out there, which is a bummer. So, imagine our delight when we found...
With all the end-of-summer clearance sales, now’s the perfect time to pick up an outdoor umbrella. But even if there’s room for shade, there’s not always space for a bulky stand or table. Enter ...
Being that it's lovely out, we thought we'd compile a list of the best outdoor products from DWR. Also, why don't you let us know (via the comments!) what you think makes a perfect backyard. We grew...
When we were just starting our home renovation, we were living in a tent with only a functioning toilet in our home. No kitchen, no bedroom and certainly no place to eat. We sat in camp chairs in ou...
How relaxing does that lounge chair look? While we're not going to be jetting off to a tropical island anytime soon, maybe we could head off to sit outside in this chair . . ....

Just because a mat is destined for outdoor use doesn't mean that it has to be bland and trashy. And conversely, just because something is made of plastic doesn't mean it has to be garish. Koko's Po...
We hope that it's not just the novelty of having a gong on one's premises that makes this infinitely appealing to us. Scratch that, it is. But what a dramatic alternative to wind chimes, indeed....
While it may be obvious to us when it has been raining, a rain gauge might be handy to back up our tales of woe to our out-of-town friends. But more seriously, the device would help us balance the ...
There's something about finding a shiny object in an unexpected place, and a mirrored sphere strategically nestled in flower beds and landscaping can add geometric interest while making the garden l...
Growing up, our family garden was an ever-changing space. We often had a salad picked straight from the garden but the backyard morphed as our family's needs changed. We had a full vegetable garden ...

A couple of weeks ago we posted a question from Portia, a reader who was looking for lounge chairs akin to those in Hyde Park, London. Since then we've had our radar up, and spotted this version, at...
It's kind of the silver lining on a wet grey cloud: a lot of summer furnishings are going on sale right as our summer gets started. Like these bird-and-bee themed light strings from Smith & Hawken (...
One of our favorite things to do in the summer is sit outside under an umbrella and watch the world from the comfort of the shade. The fact that we don't actually have the space to do this at our own ...
Most of us probably tend to forget that there are categories other than "Furniture" and "Collectibles" on Craigslist. Have you checked out "Farm & Garden"? In just a few minutes we found......
Fire pits have caught our attention this year, first because we're planning on doing something with our little brick patio, and second because we can't count on heat from the sun. This one from Viva...
Sometimes you don't need a full patio set - just a chair or two so you can escape the heat of the house and hang out in a shady part of the yard. These folding chairs from Cynthia Rowley are easy to t...
We've had this great wood seating at Denmark's Hotel du Nord bookmarked ever since we spotted it. We really love its simplicity....
Powder-coating is our favorite finish for a blast of high-gloss color, and for exterior furniture it can't be beat. That's why we like this dining set - the powder-coated base can be customized to the...
