Moroccan Lanterns

Susan — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 06:53:16 +0000

Moroccan lanterns add a glamorous, exotic touch to any outdoor decor.

I first stumbled upon these lanterns several years ago. My husband had recently finished building a sun deck in the back corner of our yard with beams across the top to support a climbing vine and garden lights. In my search for interesting lanterns to hang from our deck I wandered into a Moroccan store and immediately fell in love with all their striking lanterns.

Although it was difficult to choose, I picked a six-sided metal cutout design with red glass inserts. I bought three of them – perfect for my triangular shaped beams.

When the sun sets and my Moroccan lanterns are lit, my back deck becomes my magical retreat.

Steel Candle Lanterns

Susan — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 07:15:34 +0000

When the sun sets and night falls, my back garden becomes my retreat. There is a calmness in the quiet night’s air that cannot be found in daylight. If I am going to be outside for more than a few minutes I light some candle lanterns and maybe a torch or three and bask in their warm glow.

As I sit outside, in my candle lit yard, all the cares of my day start to disappear. For me, it is the perfect antidote to the stresses of daily life.

These stylish and elegant stainless steel candle lanterns hold pillar candles.
