![]() As noted above, wicker is more the style of furniture, while rattan is an actual material. It can be a bit confusing when you see the terms “wicker” and “rattan” used interchangeably. Its sturdy construction, light weight, and stylish versatility make it an ideal choice for outdoor patios and indoor living spaces alike. The wicker style encompasses any furniture that is woven from synthetic or natural hard fibers such as rattan, bamboo, seagrass, and more. Wicker is a general term that defines a technique of weaving natural materials into beautiful furniture and accents but isn’t a specific material in and of itself. Read our wicker guide to learn about what wicker is, how it’s made, and how to properly care for your Pier 1 wicker so it lasts for years to come. Now we offer an impressive collection of wicker and rattan furniture in a variety of materials, from bamboo to banana leaf. The opinions are all my own.Since 1962, Pier 1 has been your source for rattan and wicker furniture, starting with our timeless classic, the Papasan.

I'm so looking forward to my Saturday Porch Time with my next-door-neighbor and friend, Debbie. I added the red lacquer bamboo tray for when we serve drinks out here. The ottoman is the perfect size for us to use as a coffee table, and of course to put our feet up when we're not. I think it makes an ideal plant stand, don't you? I'm thinking that if I just had one Summer accent piece to choose, this would be the one. If you know me at all, you could have safely guessed I'd go for the red one, of course. ![]() I just couldn't decide between red or green. If you've been following my crazy on Instagram (I'm Smrtqbn, by the way), you know that I have been a little bit on the obsessed side with these ceramic stools. I chose the Kaeden pillows to pull in all those fabulous bright colors. I opted for solid seat cushions in bright green for the settee and orange for the armchair. Because it's very difficult to commit to new stuff unless you establish a relationship. Kudos to the friendly Pier 1 gal who was completely helpful and gracious as I was moving furniture and cushions around in the store. And while I love online shopping, is there anything better than seeing and touching and dreaming in person? I confess that choosing the color for the cushions was much more of a challenge. I'm thinking I can now call this my Outdoor Oasis. I ended up getting the Coco Cove Settee, the Ottoman (to be used as a coffee table), and the Armchair. We had just recently painted our home a bright yellow, so I decided the Mocha would add the most dramatic contrast with all the bright colors I intended to add, so I went for it. I knew I wanted the rattan and I was totally drawn to the Pier 1 Coco Cove Collection.

I trotted off to Pier 1 with my trusty iPad mini under my arm wtih all my Pinterest pins ready to feed my inspiration. I wanted it to practically scream, "Hello, Summer!" Like I told you before, we spend a lot of time there and I knew I wanted something that felt super welcoming. ![]() My vision was to create a new, brighter and much more inviting space in the front of our home on our porch. To see where I started, read my original post here: Making My Summer Bright With Pier 1. My patio is seriously so bright and inviting now. Today's the day for the Big Reveal and a cool Pier 1 Giveaway.
