WEEKEND PHOTO: COLORFUL COOKWARE DOUBLES AS TABLETOP DECOR!

October 2, 2010
  • Share

Photo by Coco of Cococozy
brightly colored colanders on a wood shelf at Whole Foods

I like this photo. If you can believe it, I took this photo at the market, the supermarket…yes…that’s right…why was I carrying a camera around a market…I don’t know…but I was.

Anyhooooo, at Whole Foods, they have these cute enamel brightly colored colanders there…I bought four in the granny smith apple green. I’ve used them at parties – put fresh strawberries and grapes in them and plopped them right next to the cheese plate. They are fabulously festive. They are about $19 each. Love these. They make me cheery!

Hope you have a happy weekend. I’m looking forward to seeing some out-of-town visitors and a very good old friend who is in from Seattle (let me clarify…the friend is not old…she is a good friend that I’ve known for a long time…hee hee)!

Happy Saturday.

Coco

P.S. Realized I need to get back to more photo taking. I was taking so many photos for COCOCOZY for awhile but now I keep forgetting my camera at home. Note to self…take camera. I’ve been remiss as of late with the picture snapping so to make up for it I’m going to find something cool to take pictures of this weekend and I’ll share it with you.

    In LA, you will have no trouble finding something cool. I miss my days in Pasadena and my favorite breakfast joint: Pie N Burger, The Huntington Botanical Gardens, Lake Avenue, Old Pasadena, Santa Anita. Winston Salem is lovely but LA is heaven to me, except the traffic!
    Best,

Velvet, woven wood, molded modern, sculptural, cast brass — seven islands, seven completely different takes on where you actually sit down. Some rooms go quiet with it, some go bold. Both work.

An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate.An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate. 🍂
You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎
