HOST A SIMPLE SUMMER TABLESCAPE

June 21, 2018

Going all out for a meal isn’t always on the table,( HML humor)… but putting a simple summer table is easy, simple, beautiful and during these hot months, this is a haute option. Starting with a basic white place setting is essential & this Juliska Berry & Thread Melamine (outdoor friendly) set is absolutely stunning! Besides look like the original ceramic Berry & Thread, this white place setting will allow for the flowers & food to be the center of your attention. Simplicity is key here, flowers are store bought & NOT a necessity, but I am a LOVER OF ANYTHING with flowers, especially fresh peonies & snapdragons. An HML staple for ANYTHING outdoors are my Acrylic Wine Glasses, from Sur La Table! This tablescape is my go to look for all of my delicious meals outside & these two items are my go-to pieces each time.

Set the mood with some “lighting” candle-lit lanterns are always a beautiful item to use for decor, but these from Grandin Road are fabulous for the price too! ( Remember to keep it low, so you can talk to someone across the table from you).
