3 Ways To Use Your Sugar Kettles

by briansfurniture |November 30, 2020 | Blogs, Sugar Kettles

Sugar kettles are, without a doubt, an iconic relic of Louisiana’s history. Now found commonplace in Southern decor, sugar kettles are being used for a variety of purposes. The Sugar Kettle experts at Brian’s Furniture wanted to share some outdoor ideas to help make your landscape pop. Let’s take a look at just how versatile decorating your outdoor area with sugar kettles can be!

A Beautiful Fountain 

A water feature adds a certain “je ne sais quoi” to any landscape or garden. And sugar kettle fountains are a beautiful and easy way to transform your outdoor area. The most simple way to install a fountain is just by using a sugar kettle and water pump. We offer many different style fountains, ranging from simple sprinkler fountains to beautiful bronze bird fountains. Whatever look you’re trying to achieve for your sugar kettle fountain, Brian’s Furniture has many options for you.

A Stylish Fire Pit

A cast iron sugar kettle fire pit is a stylish addition to any outside area. And luckily, transforming your sugar kettle into a firepit is a breeze. The heavy cast iron bowl works perfectly as an instant and beautiful fire pit. Although, you might want to add some small holes at the bottom of the sugar kettle to allow for rainwater drainage. This also helps with ash disposal when washing your sugar kettle fire pit out. We have a large selection of sizes that’ll fit your every need. Creating your own outdoor fire pit area is as simple as setting up some chairs around your brand new sugar kettle fire pit. Grab your blankets and enjoy the crisp nights around a warm fire with your friends and family. 

A Louisiana-style Planter

Possibly the most simple use for a sugar kettle is converting it into a planter. Whether you opt for the fiberglass or cast iron sugar kettle, simply drill a drain hole in the bottom and you’re ready to plant! The beautiful pop of color from flowers or greenery paired with the uniqueness of the sugar kettle adds a perfect Louisiana touch to any outdoor space.
