Outdoor Dining Done 3 Ways
Itโs warm weather season and that means finding any & every excuse to dine outside. Whether you are looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply want to have a casual outdoor dinner with family or friends, Iโm sharing 3 great looks to inspire you this season for creating a stylish tablescapeโฆ
1
GARDEN PARTY
I love the idea of a chic garden party look, fit with floral prints & elegant dinnerware. This SADIE FLORAL LEAF TABLECLOTH is a great way to liven up any table with a floral print. And a great dinner plate option is these ODETTE MELAMINE PLATES that add style with the pretty floral designs without the hassle of using your โgood platesโ outdoors. Creating a look like this works for a covered patio table look or an out in the open table, surrounded in your own garden or backyard. I love the idea of adding 3 or 4 of these MINI FAUX POTTED ORCHIDS for a natural, yet elegant centerpiece look. And working in natural decor like with these OPEN WEAVE PLACEMATS and this BASKETWEAVE SALT AND PEPPER SHAKER SET is the perfect way to add natural texture in a chic way.

EARTHY CHIC DINING
Combining earth tones, modern dinnerware, and gold accents can make for quite a stylish way to dine outdoors. I love these MELAMINE DINNER PLATES and MELAMINE SALAD PLATES in a rich terracotta color and show just how good melamine plates can look. And these BLOCK PRINT VERONA NAPKINS are a great way to add a print to a table if you want to keep the table bare without a tablecloth or runner. This TERRACOTTA PARTY BUCKET is a stylish way to keep your beverages chilled and it looks as good as a vintage terracotta planter, so it adds so much to your outdoor look, whether on a table or on an outdoor garden stool or accent table.

EASYGOING ENTERTAINING
When you want to entertain in a low key way, but still want to create a stylish table, you canโt go wrong with classic tones like light blue & neutrals. These STRIPED BORDER PLACEMATS are a great way to add a classic stripe to each table setting and this WOVEN TABLE RUNNER pairs well, adding to this carefree chic look. For an extra dose of color, these LINEN NAPKINS in a muted yellow color are an easy way to brighten up the table. Working in natural serveware like with this ACACIA WOOD SERVING BOWL and this SEAGRASS LONG BASKET is a great balance to the cream table linens and dinnerware for a perfect mix of textures to complete this look.
