How to recreate a New Orleans style courtyard?
I am moving into a antebellum home in Mississippi this week. My entrance is on the side of the home and I have about permission to create a garden area just behind my porch. The space from the wall of the house to the tall shrubs bordering the neighbor’s yard is about 15 ft wide and about 20 ft deep. I have been looking at photos to get an idea of what the elements of a New Orleans courtyard are. I will be using Wrought iron hooks red 18 X 18 inch concrete pavers (rather than brick, due to cost). I have come up with the following list of elements to incorporate to try to get the “feel”.Wrought Iron (will try to find fence pieces at local junk stores) and table and chairs.Palm trees (many have some type of green trees overhead)Tropical plants in terra cotta potswater element (they love fountains, will try to find a small one)Statues (classical)white paint (many have a touch of white, the back of my porch and the house wall should work)overhanging plants (shepard’s hooks should give some height)old bricks (I can get a few and will use them to give varying heights to the potted plants.I have a few tall shutters to stand together as a outdoor screen to set against the bushes as a wall. I do need ideas for a “wall” to border the back of the courtyard as it faces the backyard.Does anyone else have any suggestions on any ideas I may have missed?

If you like the look of wrought iron or need some strong hooks, these are for you! You supply your own screws (I lightly hammered my screws into a piece of wood and spray painted them black to match), and inserts if needed. I am hanging heavy pieces of cast iron from them in my kitchen – I used two pairs of pliers to twist each hook 90 degrees from the portion with the hole – as they are the perfect size for the handles.

I can’t find these kinds of hooks and racks for anything close to these prices, plus delivery from the Emporium is always expedient. Once again, perfectly simple… and handmade in the USA, hooray!

Talking about a bang for your buck, I searched hours for factory made items and nothing compares to the quality/price ratio of these Amish items. Fast delivery to boot. I’m happy to support the Amish anytime. Too bad they don’t have computers to be able to read this glowing review regarding their products.

I have a small kitchen and am quite limited in space. I am extremely happy with this product. It is quite durable and not only solved the “where to store my cookware” dilemma, but it looks great as a main focal point on my kitchen wall.

This pot rack works great, however, we hung it upside down from what the picture shows. This way it is much more solid, attached to the wall joists, and still looks very nice. I have four iron skillets hanging from it.
Great price too.

I’m buying my second one! I had to leave my first one at my old house because the buyers loved it so much. I’m excited to be able to get another one for my new house! It is just the right size for a small kitchen, yet holds a lot and is surprizingly sturdy. At my old house I hung it over the window above my sink. It looked so nice I didn’t need a curtain. This time I think it’s just the right size to hang over my stove. Buy it, you’ll like it.
