This is going to be a treat for all
my friends and family
living in the cold snowy North right now!
All of this beautiful inspiration may
help turn your thoughts toward spring and warm sunny days.
Here in the south,
we can plan outdoor parties for many months of the year....
especially during spring!
I think it will be fun to just see how pretty we can make
a garden party!
These are my picks for creating the most fabulous
outdoor soiree!
Plan on wearing the prettiest and most feminine dress
you can find.....be sure to splash on your best fragrance too!
Plan for the early evening hours
so that the garden lights will create an atmosphere
of magical romance!
Forget paper plates...
gather up old vintage, mismatched
china dinnerware and vintage silver.
Details my loves...
how sweet are these chic spring-like drinking straws
displayed in a glass jar!
A perfect touch for cocktails at 6 PM......
I loved the idea of fresh flowers
added to floating candles....
can you imagine how beautiful these would be
scattered around a patio or deck?
Tiny bites before dinner....
light and oh so delicious and colorful......
Style the buffet pretty......
this offers a gorgeous display
of
bountiful food that guests can
easily assemble on a plate!
I love the idea of Italian baguettes
displayed in a serving tray..
men would love this one!
Rather than just plain lemonade,
add some lavender syrup and
fresh citrus...
And finally.....
a colorful fruit pizza for a sweet ending....
Wouldn't this be the most marvelous party ever!!!
I'd love to throw or attend a party like this one! Great inspiration Betsy!
