dining out

hi everyone..


this is something i prepared earlier, after the daybed post. we don't usually have all this white outside, i don't think it would stay white for long, but i did have fun creating this. 
i used a white sheet for the tablecloth ,decided i'm liking the non ironed look here, and scoured the house for white things. it was one of the first warm spring days, perfect for eating outside.















i'd love to decorate a wedding like this preferably with a beach view in the background.


do you have a website, online shop, etsy shop? 
have you considered blog advertising? 
with the increase in internet shopping, blog advertising is a great way to get your name out there & i'd love to have you onboard. see more info here.

    Very nice! All dressed up in white! But the most surprisingly of all is when I saw this mirror-window of yours... I have the same one outside in my veranda! Amazing! I haven't seen anywhere before. And I don't think we shop from the same market... as I live in Greece. White was its original colour? I had it in dark brown and repainted in white and lime. Wanna take a look? http://stardust-decorstyle.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-balcony.html

    So inviting. I can see slipping right onto those pillows for a meal in the sun. Lucky you to have the weather to be able to move outside. I'm just buying long underwear and getting things ready for a cold winter. Jane

    You have created a very pretty white setting, I have white outside, which can get a bit of mildew up here in the subtropics but bleach is my friend!

    I love it - especially love the flatware in the mason jars with the little shells. My husband is throwing a Hawaiian themed birthday party for me this weekend, and I love the idea of keeping the flatware in mason jars, and I already have a ton of shells at home. Thanks for the inspiration!
