H and I like to eat outside as much as we can during the summer. It hasn't been quite as hot, so I have the table set on the back porch for dinner tonight. |
 |
The back porch is on the side yard that's right off the sun room..... |
 |
The porch is surrounded by trees and is shady most of the day. When we get ready to eat, we'll set up the the free standing fan from the front porch to make it a little cooler. |
 |

 |
I freshened up the existing wreath on the faux fireplace by taking out the yellow flowers and replacing them with blue silk roses. |
 |
I have the table set with pink metal chargers, cobalt blue plates, and pink ruffled bread plates. |
 |
We'll need plenty of cool beverages on hand...... |
 |
 |
The blue and white floral place mats are a recent yard sale purchase......8 mats for $3. I made a table runner with 3 of them, put one on the back of each chair and the last one is on the fireplace mantel. Did you notice my little photo bombers......lol! . Please visit my side bar to see "Where I Party" and stop by and visit a few of the great blogs! |

What a beautiful setting for a beautiful lunch! I love everything about it. From the tree in the middle of the deck, to the dainty pink lacy plates! Does your faux fireplace stay out on the deck?

What a lovely space to enjoy dinner. The cobalt blue pieces are gorgeous! Your tablescape is beautiful, Penny. Thanks for sharing at Snickerdoodle Sunday.
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely worth the effort to dine outside if you can and you've created the perfect spot to do so! It looks lovely and inviting. So many rainy days here, we've hardly been outside at all!
