    An Elegant Thanksgiving Appetizer Set Up

    Entertaining is one of my favorite things to do so I am excited to host Thanksgiving again this year. When our family is sitting around the table chatting and laughing, I always sit back and take it in for a few moments. I feel that when you look back at life you tend to remember things through rose-tinted glasses so I try to capture that feeling in the moment and not just when looking back. 

    Last year, I created a chic tablescape for our dinner. Since then, we since have updated our balcony with a pretty wall covered in greenery so I want to serve appetizers outside on the balcony this year.

     Appetizers for Thanksgiving can be tricky…while you can certainly get elaborate, preparing a simple cheese and charcuterie board, some nuts and caprese skewers will suffice. None of these items require cooking (which is perfect since the oven is usually occupied) and can be prepared in advance.

    Traditional Fall decor in warm tones like brown, yellow and orange do not compliment my condominium well so I opted for this rose and hydrangea garland. I used marble serving pieces, candles and this fun white pumpkin.

    July 4th Outdoor Tablescape

    The time for for family, friends and fireworks is almost upon us…if you are hosting this season, we have created a simple and patriotic July 4th outdoor tablescape for your gatherings.   

    I like to use “real” everything…plates, glasses, flatware. Sometimes that is not ideal while all of these are made of shatter proof materials (think acrylic and melamine), they are far more elegant than drinking from a plastic Solo cup.  

    This navy and white striped tablecloth has openings to accommodate umbrellas.  The red napkins add a fun pop of color and the understated silver napkin rings finish off this table with the just the right detail. Finished but not fussy. The tablecloth, napkins, plates and serving dishes are available at www.crateandbarrel.com  and are now on sale! The star napkin rings are available at www.amazon.com.  I added gerbera daisies for some extra cheer. 

    If you are in need of recipes, try our Summer Sangria , Asparagus Salad or  Sorbet recipes for your parties.

    sHappy hosting!

    Bisous,

    Rebecca
