Whether entertaining on the lanai or taking care of the garden, the women in our family love to spend time outdoors. With that in mind, I wanted to find a Mother's Day gift that would accentuate Mom's outdoor living space. Lanterns are very trendy right now and I love the idea of a gift that offers both functionality and beauty. Unfortunately, I feel like everything I've seen in the stores is exactly the same, or pretty darn similar, and I like to give gifts that are a bit more unique. Online shopping offers a broader variety of options and I found some really upscale gift ideas at QuickCandles.com this year. For Mother's Day, I chose the Richland Stainless Steel and Wood Tealight Lantern. It's a gorgeous piece completely different from everything I've seen in our local stores.
What I Love About It
The Richland Stainless Steel And Wood Tealight Lantern brings a rustic elegance to outdoor living spaces. It's a unique blend of steel and wood, with three hanging tea light holders floating over a mirrored bottom that reflects the light beautifully. The design incorporates function as well, with a vented handle at the top and a latched door on one side. It creates a particularly elegant atmosphere in the evening. Its simplistic style fits works with most any decor.
Dimensions: 11.8"(W) x 6.25"(L) x 11.25 (H-with handle)
Not only was this lantern affordable at $29.99, the quality is outstanding. The wood is more beautiful in person than I expected and it's very sturdy. We inserted white Richland tea light candles inside our lantern, but we also love the idea of using citronella tea lights to combat insects. One more way to add functionality!
