rattan and wicker furniture ideas planter

Whether you're updating your decor or moving into a new place, we love how wicker furniture automatically adds some summer flair to any room. But paired with bright throw pillows or colorful florals, these wicker and rattan picks won't clash with the decor style you've already chosen. Keep scrolling for 19 of our favorite pieces!

4-Piece Wicker Patio Conversation Set with Seabreeze Cushions ($599)

Since this set doesn't have a full-sized couch, it's a great option for anyone who has a smaller patio area. Add different pillows or swap out the cushions for a whole new vibe.

Round Multiweave Rattan Tray ($25)

Trays are always a helpful decor idea since they keep your items contained instead of sprawled across the coffee table. This woven pick will add some cottagecore detail to your home, but can be dressed up with figurines or candles for a more glam look.

Small Rattan Basket ($35)

Use this basket to hold your favorite books, blankets, throw pillows, or all of the above! The open design is helpful for seeing what's at the bottom of the basket.

Porto Outdoor Swivel Chair ($1,299+)

If you're not sure about committing to a piece that's totally rattan, opt for one that has detailing instead. The straight design is unconventional while still adding a boho touch.

Wicker Globe Pendant ($259+)

If you love chandeliers, but jewels don't match the style of your apartment, pick a wicker light instead! This one goes with everything.

Woven Wicker Vase ($88+)

Branches, preserved stems, and artificial flowers will look amazing in these open-weave vases. The best part about these babies is that they're airy enough for summer but the color palette will transition your space right into fall and winter.

Boho Rattan Furniture Knobs ($24)

These knobs are a great way to get a taste of the rattan look without committing to a huge piece of furniture. Even though they're small, they'll totally transform your dresser or cabinet.

Rattan Sun Wall Basket ($128)

Not only does this basket offer a sunny bit of design to any blank wall, but it's also a somewhere to keep your crafting odds and ends.

Wicker Trunk ($80)

A trunk is always a good idea because it's stylish *and* utilitarian at the same time. This one has cutout handles for easy moving, and features a lid so you can keep whatever your storage out of sight.

Modern Rattan 7-Drawer ($1,499)

Get the Coastal Grandmother look with a mango wood dresser that could totally pass in any New England beach house. It's got enough room for all your tee shirts, cut offs, and bathing suits!

Adobe Rattan Planter ($129)

Rattan planters give your houseplants an artsy home. While the material is laidback, the design offers a unique and sophisticated feel.

Natural Coastal Lanterns ($75+)

A pair of lanterns is a great decor idea for any porch or patio. Even though this duo has a laidback look, the lanterns are durable enough that you'll be able to display them for years to come.

Pari Rattan Chair ($148)

If you've been wanting to add some rattan and wicker furniture to your home but you don't want another brown piece, this chair is for you! Mint green will add some whimsy to any brunch or reading space.

Cassandra Rattan Wall Hooks ($23)

Add these hooks to your bedroom, bathroom, or entryway to maximize wall space and add some extra style. Not only are they useful, but you can stick flowers in the openings!

Rattan Tulip Curtain Rod ($30+)

Swap out your curtain rod ends for these rattan tulips. They add just a little bit of contrast without overwhelming the decor that you already have.

Leland Rattan Beverage Tub ($180)

Every pool party needs some sodas! Keep them cool in a beverage tub that adds some serious summer vibes and also reminds us of a picnic basket.

Wood And Rattan Wall Mirror ($104, was $126)

This mirror's rattan material balances with the geometric square design for a piece that's equal parts boho and modern. It's like wall art and a mirror all-in-one!

Malibu Handwoven Charger Plate ($30)

Use these seagrass chargers for dinner parties and cookouts alike. They'll be hidden underneath your plates (meaning you'll only get a peek at them), but they're also neutral enough that they'll go with all different kinds of colors and decor styles!

Rattan Fruit Basket ($18)

Your fruit deserves something more than just a plain bowl! Display all your bananas, apples, and oranges in a pretty basket that features a curlycue design.

While holiday enthusiasts are breaking out their Christmas trees and stockings, some of us are getting into the spirit a little differently. As a member of the tribe, December is high time for latkes and dreidels. And while our celebrations are truly lit (it’s the Festival of Lights, after all!) the merch selection has never quite had the same allure as the magic of Christmas.

The eight nights of Hanukkah begin on December 25 this year, and we’re on a mission to elevate the classic blue and silver while helping you answer the most challenging question of our time: “what should I buy for my Jewish friends, anyway?” Whether you're looking to ditch the kitsch or fully lean into the uniqueness being one of the Chosen people, here are 24 items that should be on your Hanukkah decorations list.

Our favorite Hanukkah decorations for 2024:

Take our favorite celebrity BFF's, Taylor Swift and Blake Lively, and our favorite celebrity couple, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and you truly get one big happy family. Earlier this summer, Blake and Ryan showed up to the Eras Tour to support the "Fortnight" singer, and on July 25, Taylor returned the love by making a rare lengthy post to her Instagram story.

Here's everything you need to know about Taylor Swift's relationship with Blake Lively's kids as their godmother.

Taylor Swift/Instagram

Taylor Swift posted a photo to her Instagram story featuring Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Shawn Levy — all of whom are involved in Deadpool & Wolverine, in theaters July 26!

"Over the past few years I have watched one of my best friends on the planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness, and magic into this film," she says. "He's created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality, and an abs sandwich."

After joking that Ryan, Blake, and Shawn randomly crashed her photo, Taylor continues, saying, "Shout out to Wade Wilson [the character played by Ryan Reynolds], aka my godkids' sperm donor!"

Eugene Gologursky/Getty Images for Fast Company

Ryan Reynolds had the funniest reaction, and told Deadline, "I'm going to need that on my gravestone, actually."

"Yeah, that is kind of it. She is the godparent to my daughters," the Deadpool actor continued. "That was very sweet. Not just sweet, that was, like, you could probably quantify a box office based on Taylor just doing something like that."

Carlos Alvarez/Getty Images for TAS Rights Management/Noam Galai/Getty Images for Disney

In the past, Ryan Reynolds has been vocal about how much his kids (James, Inez, Betty, and Olin) love Taylor Swift, and the family's appearance at the Eras Tour even went viral!

"I think what's most exciting for them is that for the longest time they just thought Taylor's just like an aunt, like a friend of Mommy and Daddy that's very, very close, almost family," he says onThe Jess Cagle Show. "And then they went to a concert one day and were like, 'Ohhhhh, this isn't a hobby.'"

Wallpaper Tips

York Wall Coverings Evening Star Geometric

Try two complementary wallpapers, like a floral and a graphic, for an eclectic look.

Wallpaper Tips:

  • Work with a buddy: Hanging wallpaper on a ceiling can be tricky, so having an extra set of hands can make it much easier.
  • Use a temporary support: For longer strips, you might need to support the wallpaper temporarily with painter's tape until it's actually secured.
  • Consider your lighting situation: When choosing wallpaper, keep in mind how ceiling lighting will affect the wallpaper color and pattern. Make sure to test a swatch by taping it to the ceiling and observing the day and night light.

Painting Tips

  • Paint in natural light: If possible, paint during the day when natural light is brightest. This helps you catch any missed spots or uneven coverage more easily.
  • Start with the edges: Use a brush to “cut in” around the edges of the ceiling, creating a border. This makes it easier to roll paint up to the edges without bumping into walls or light fixtures.
  • Use a pole extension: An extension pole gives you better control, minimizes neck strain, and helps you achieve an even coat.
  • Roll in one direction, then cross-roll: Apply the first coat by rolling in one direction, usually parallel to the longest wall. Then, cross-roll by going perpendicular to the first direction to avoid streaks.
  • Let each coat dry. This is the kind of project you don't want to rush, so let your layers dry before applying another coat. The paint can should say drying times for the best finish!

Mouldings + Wood

Anthropologie

Anthropologie Delphine Rattan Chandelier

If your ceiling needs a little love, add a ceiling ring and a statement chandelier and you have a refreshing new look. Medallions are also surprisingly affordable for an elegant look.
