black garden accents

?

in my garden

I love black accents in the garden, so I'm crazy about these huge black Chippendale style planters that I found to line the entrance into our backyard. I was lucky enough to find these at a charity auction last year. They were originally white and I gave them a quick coat of black paint, and now they look so elegant.

 

 

Here's one I found on-line for a great price:

What's next for black in the garden?

Maybe a pair of these for the terrace...

It's summertime up in here.

And right now, I'm all about some outdoor spaces. I'm sprucing up my screened porch with gauze panels hung from lengths of bamboo and I can't wait to have a drink or two on some great outdoor furniture.

As soon as I find some.

Aren't these outdoor rooms and porches wonderful?
