The British summer is famously brief, so make the most of it by getting outdoors as much as you can. If you think it might be too much of an indulgence to splash out on rattan furniture for the garden, which will only be used for a few months of the year, then remember that rattan garden furniture can actually be left outdoors all year round, so add some heaters and you can still enjoy being in the open air even when temperatures drop and if you can add some shelter against the elements too, you have the potential to use your rattan furniture almost all year and there is no better time to buy than during our rattan garden furniture clearance sale. Here at Poshh, we have a wide range of rattan furniture including rattan dining sets, rattan sofa dining sets, rattan sofa sets, tables, chairs and bistros sets, rattan plant pots and rattan loungers and daybeds.

Rattan plant pots
Rattan plant pots are, of course, a very stylish way to display your plants and particularly handy for plants which spend part of their life outdoors and part indoors. They can, however, be put to a whole lot of other purposes besides this and can be very creative and practical storage solutions.
For example, if you like to eat outdoors regularly then you could use one of our rattan plant pots to hold essential supplies such as condiments and napkins rather than having to fetch them from indoors each time you are ready to eat. Similarly you could use them to hold bottles and cans so that they’re both tidy and ready to hand.
Rattan plant pots can also be a clever way to conceal items which are practical rather than pretty, for example cleaning implements. This has the extra benefit of having the supplies where they are needed so it’s always easy for you to give your rattan garden furniture some care and maintenance to make sure it stays in tip-top condition.
You could use a rattan plant pot as a waste bin as they are sturdy enough to withstand both winds and knocks, even when children (or pets) are running around. Alternatively you could go to the other end of the scale and use rattan plant pots to hold permanent decorations. The choice is completely yours.

Some general tips about rattan
Rattan is one of those materials which was “discovered” relatively recently, even though certain cultures have been using it for making furniture (amongst other purposes) throughout history. It has been steadily gaining in popularity in Europe due to its appealing combination of environmental friendliness (it can be harvested in a very sustainable manner), general usefulness and attractive appearance. From a home-owner’s perspective, rattan offers style, durability and ease of maintenance. A little tender, loving care, will help to keep your rattan garden furniture looking good and performing well, year after year. Your first consideration is siting and the good news is that the best conditions for rattan garden furniture are also the best conditions for most humans. Rattan is quite happy out of doors but is best kept out of direct sunlight and extremes of temperature. It can stay outside most of the year, but ideally should come indoors over the very coldest months or, at the very least, be well covered and protected against the elements. The best way to clean rattan itself is to put some washing-up liquid into a bowl of hot water and use the suds and only the suds (i.e. not the actual water) to clean the rattan with a soft cloth and a toothbrush to get into any cracks. Clean any cushions according to the directions (covers can often go into a washing machine) and make sure that they are completely dry before putting them back on the seats (this is good for humans too). This basic maintenance should keep your rattan in good condition, but if you slip up or are given a piece of rattan furniture in poor condition, then you have a fairly good chance of bringing it back to life with the help of boiled linseed oil. Just to be clear about this, you buy boiled linseed oil rather than trying to boil ordinary linseed oil and since boiled linseed oil and regular linseed oil can be sold, literally side by side, make sure to double-check which one you are picking up. Just apply the boiled linseed oil with a brush, essentially as though you were painting the rattan garden furniture and keep going until the furniture stops absorbing the oil. Then wipe off any excess with a soft cloth and leave the item to dry completely before using it again.
