• Duraclear Martini Glasses

  

  According to the manufacturer, Duraclear plastic glasses won’t crack or discolor over time. We like them because they still look classy in your summer snapshots, but won’t leave those irritating glass shards all over the deck when the crowd gets tipsy enough to start dropping them.

• Outdoor Solar String Lights

  

  We like having strings of lights over our patio for ambiance, but making sure there’s a plug for them is always a heavy middle-class challenge.

  These lights can go anywhere, because they use the sun during the day to recharge. Now I can get back to worrying about the weeds in my lawn.
