ENTERTAINING/SERVING PIECES FOR THANKSGIVING
As promised, today I’m sharing a roundup of beautiful entertaining and serving pieces for your Thanksgiving gathering! I know I sound like a broken record, but over the years, I’ve really pared down my entertaining basics/necessities, only buying items that are as beautiful as they are practical, but that can also easily be dressed up…
Read MoreTHANKSGIVING TABLE INSPIRATION
Thanksgiving will be here before we know it and we will be celebrating it twice, starting the weekend before, so I’ve been busy scheming how I’ll be setting my table this year! I’m currently obsessed with checks, so I think I’ll be pairing them with lots of texture, bamboo, tortoise, my grandmother’s silver candlesticks and…
Read MoreENTERTAINING PRETTIES FOR FALL + THE HOLIDAYS
I’ve never been the biggest fan of decorating with shades of red, but I have to say, lately I’m loving wine paired with lots of texture, silver, a little ironstone and, of course, a few topiary for the table! I found the prettiest gingham napkins in burgundy and they inspired me to do a roundup…

The only upside to the end of summer, for me, is that there is a plethora of dahlias in bloom to soothe the sadness of my littles returning to school! One of my dear friends started her own flower farm a few years ago and I always looked forward to her end-of-summer subscription for the…

Taking a quick break from ignoring the mountain of laundry glaring at me from the corner of my living room to hop on here and share a few pretties for summer! If you’ve been following along for a while, you know that rattan and wicker are two of my favorite ways to accessorize for the…
Read MoreRED, WHITE + BLUE FAVORITES FOR THE 4TH
The Fourth of July is this weekend already, and we are ready to celebrate with a bevy of red, white and blue decorations, good food and, hopefully, amazing weather! I’m not usually the biggest fan of red, but this time of year, I love to display small pops of it in full force, alongside navy,…
Read MoreGET THE LOOK: SAG HARBOR SPRING TABLE SETTING
I asked on Instagram last weekend what kind of posts you’d like to see here on the blog and an overwhelming number of you requested more table settings with sources for getting a similar look! I feel like I post quite a few of my settings on a regular basis, but if more is what…
Read MoreREAL VS. FAUX BAMBOO FLATWARE
After posting this faux bamboo flatware set in my post last week, I got a ton of questions about how close to the real version this was, as well as the quality of the two and whether or not the fake version was what I post in my tablescapes or not. Since I have both…
Read MoreOUTDOOR FAVORITES FOR SPRING + SUMMER
Spring is on its way out the door, as the heat and humidity are quickly on their way in, so we are currently all about cleaning up the yard, flower beds and waiting patiently for the last of the pollen to clear so we can power wash the exterior and move full-on into summer mode!…
