We got a set of 3 of these, and have placed two in the front yard, and one in the back yard, in strategic places to shine lights on trees. They look great! I'll probably get three more.

While I think hibiscus is meant to be annual (in Virginia, at least), I always bring mine inside for the winter. Usually they bloom year round, with the right care. The colors are gorgeous, and elevate our pool area to feel like you're in the Caribbe...

This is the perfect size recycling bin. We keep one on the deck for guests who forget our “no glass” rule in the pool area. We also keep two in the garage for aluminum cans and plastic bottles.
good natured Stackable 6 Gallon Recycle Bin
We have three of these strings of lights in our backyard, around the pool and the gazebo. I love that they're solar powered and automatically come on at dusk. We have two more on the way.

We LOVE this cute little solar fountain! It sprays water all day while in the sun, circulating water around our birdbath and the birds love it! At dusk, the multicolored lights come on so it's a pretty evening feature as well. Absolutely FIVE stars!
Lighted Solar Fountain Pump
These high end speakers will transform your space. They can go very loud for a party vibe, and the lantern feature at dusk is a plus! We've had this set for 3 years now and never have they ever run out of power. They play music day after day just cha...

We LOVE this windchime! It looks and sounds great in the day time, and since it's solar powered it lights up beautifully at night. Highly recommended, and also makes a great gift.
