ALDI's New Rattan Planters Tap Into an Enduringly Popular Garden Style – They're Timeless, Durable and Effortlessly Chic
The Belavi rattan planters are sure to sell out in a flash
Rattan might be a reliable choice for garden furniture – and a staple when it comes to hanging baskets – but recently, I've been keen to get a little more creative with my planters.
Of course, there's a reason why rattan is so popular, and it's a failsafe addition to any garden. But as soon as I spotted IKEA's woven plant pots and ALDI's new rattan planters, both felt like a fresh take on this classic material, and I'm convinced that they're about to sell out.
At $8.99 each, ALDI's Belavi rattan planters are a particularly budget-friendly way to bring some texture to your container garden. Plus, they have an inner pot to ensure good drainage for your plants, and protect the rattan material. Whether you lean toward a nature-inspired look or you prefer coastal charm, these planters are a great investment.
This is one of the most affordable ways to incorporate stylish rattan decor into your yard – though you can also use it for houseplants, too.
Why Your Garden Needs Rattan Planters This Summer
They might look like nothing more than humble plant pots, but anyone with a keen eye for design will know that rattan decorating ideas are some of the easiest ways to elevate a space – so ALDI's rattan planters might just transform your backyard this summer.
Whether you're overhauling a container garden, upgrading a patio, or sprucing up a porch, a planter like this one will do the trick. Rattan creates an eye-catching textural detail that looks sophisticated and yet subtle, so it never feels like a risky choice.
In my search for some new rattan pieces, I've hunted down everything from IKEA's FLODBJÖRK plant pots to Terrain's rattan basket planters – not to mention IKEA's classic FLODBJÖRK hanging baskets.
I've even considered something like Target's rattan-inspired resin planters.
Ultimately, however, I haven't found anything as affordable as ALDI's Belavi planters. They're simple and yet effortlessly stylish, and there's nothing stopping me from using them to fill my tiny balcony garden as alfresco hosting season gets underway.
Though rattan can call to mind the glamor of '70s beach clubs – think striking pink accents and plenty of palm trees – it also speaks to the kind of elegant coastal style that is so enviable right now.
Naturally, I'll be packing my rattan planters with swathes of brightly colored blooms to welcome some summertime joy into my yard, but they've also inspired me to experiment with even more rustic garden decorating ideas.
Perhaps I'll finish the look with this wicker solar light from Wayfair, or these rattan string lights from Home Depot.
