It’s the time of year when many of us begin to turn our attention to the outdoors. Our focus now lies firmly on our gardens, balconies, and patios that have been recently neglected, with the aim of transforming them into liveable spaces once again. One way to bring life to your space again is by introducing garden furniture, but as is with interior decor, you need accompanying accessories to create an inviting and complete look. To create a truly eye-catching outdoor space, planters, lanterns, garlands, and soft furnishings are recommended alongside furniture to introduce additional colours and textures to the decorated space. In this blog, EZ Living Furniture discusses the 6 planters that are guaranteed to spruce up even the most unloved outdoor spaces. With contemporary designs and modern shapes, there’s something for everyone! Keep reading below to discover them all!

Prato Ribbed Clay Planters at EZ Living Furniture.

1. Prato Ribbed Clay Planters

One of my personal favourites is the Prato Planters. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, the Prato Ribbed Clay Planters pictured above are a great investment primarily because of their multifunctionality, but also because of their design. Whether you plan on enhancing your garden, balcony, or patio, the Prato will do a great job in hosting your chosen flowers, herbs, or even artificial foliage. With the minimalist, grooved design featured on all three planters, you could easily incorporate these into your interior decor or choose to keep some inside and some outside. With three different sizes as part of the set, these clay planters are incredibly versatile and are the perfect way to add a pop of colour to your decor.

Forli set of 3 Rattan Clay Planters at EZ Living Furniture.

2. Forli Set Of 3 White Rattan Clay Planters

If round, standing planters aren’t your thing, perhaps rectangular plant pots are? The Forli Set Of 3 Planters, made from clay, provide a controlled environment for your plants and flowers while also providing plenty of space for a variety of real or fake foliage. You can place the Forli Planters on a window ledge to enhance the front or rear of your house, or place them alongside the floor on a balcony for that eye-catching feature for passerbys. Again, the dotted design is minimalist, like the Prato Planters, making it versatile enough to be placed anywhere.

Sassari Set of 3 Clay Charcoal Planters at EZ Living Furniture.

3. Sassari Charcoal Clay Planters

If you really want to make your garden pop with colour, then use the Sassari Charcoal Clay Planters. This set features three grey planters that are muted in colour, allowing whatever you decide to plant in them to stand out. While at first, they might appear to be concrete, these are in fact made from clay, a lighter yet durable material, which means you can easily move these planters from one area to another (if you so wish). Industrial in their design, the charcoal grey exterior would look right at home placed on a windowsill or surrounding decking to create visual interest.

Ferrara Set of 3 Black Clay Planters at EZ Living Furniture.

4. Ferrara Black Clay Planters

The Ferrara Black Clay Planters are super cool and will instantly transform your garden from not to hot. The black finish with stone-like detailing will make anyone think that you’ve bought these planters from a boutique and spent a fortune in doing so. But you can delight your family and friends by telling them that you’ve in fact purchased all three from EZ Living Furniture for less than €150 - an absolute bargain if you ask us! The Ferrara Planters can be displayed indoors or outdoors, and because of their black colour, stone finish, and hexagonal shape, these planters would work incredibly well in both. Whether you plan on planting herbs or flowers to expose your green fingers or want to make everyone believe that you have green fingers with something artificial, the Ferrara Planters are the perfect way to do it!

Salerno Set of 3 Clay White Planters at EZ Living Furniture.

5. Salerno White Clay Planters

Arranged together, the Salerno Clay Planters, pictured above, create a bold feature that would immediately draw the eye of anyone in your outdoor space. Of course, as with all of our listed planters, the Salerno can be separated from one another and dotted around your interior and exterior to create individual areas of interest. The Salerno White Clay Planters are simple yet stunning in their design and colour, allowing your plants and flowers to truly shine inside them. A great investment for your home and garden, the Salerno Clay Planters are something you won’t regret adding to your cart.

Santa Cruz Small Slat Wood Planter at EZ Living Furniture.

6. Santa Cruz Small Planter

The Santa Cruz Planter (pictured above) differs from the others on our list. Firstly, it isn’t made from clay, and it isn’t rounded or rectangular in its shape; instead, it features a dark wood slatted design and a traditional square shape. What we love most about the Santa Cruz though, is that it really stands out, whether placed next to your outdoor dining set on a patio, deck, balcony, or terrace, or sitting next to a front door. The dark wood immediately draws the eye, meaning whatever you plant inside will be noticed by everyone. The Santa Cruz is made from weatherproof acacia wood, meaning it can be placed outdoors like the other planters on the list, but because of its beautiful dark wooden appearance, we would suggest keeping it in a shaded area to prevent any damage to the wood. This beautiful planter is also available in medium and large sizes, meaning you can choose the size based on your individual requirements! 

Now that you have 6 planter collections to choose from, it’s time to start deciding on what you’re going to plant in them – unfortunately, we can’t help there, but what we can do is show you some garden furniture sets that would look beautiful alongside your planters – shop our entire garden furniture collection here!
