WEEKEND PHOTO: DESIGNING A PERFECT PORCH PARTY!

September 3, 2010
  • Share

Outdoor patio with vibrant orange tufted cushion on a teak bench, with a bright green table cloth and accents

Love this cheerful outdoor dinner party setting. The vibrant orange tufted cushion on the teak bench and the bright green table cloth and accents make this porch quite pretty for a summer evening dinner party.

Hmmm…has got me thinking…might have to throw another last minute gathering this weekend on my deck…

What are your plans for the long weekend? Planning any fun parties?

Hope you have a great Labor Day Weekend!

    I was thinking the same thing…I might have to have an end-of-season BBQ. But first, my goal is to finish painting my credenza.

    Have a great holiday.

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. 🤎

The spaces that get it right pair it with warm oak, aged brass, and something worn-in: an antique dresser, a vintage runner, a hand-thrown vase.
