Each summer, I have visions of outdoor entertaining at sunset, sipping cocktails on the lawn, and then sitting for an al fresco dinner around my teak dining table. Though still waiting for these blissful nights to materialize, in the interim, I have gathered a bunch of inspiration for floral arrangements.
I could not imagine entertaining without flowers! They are what complete a beautiful table and set the mood for the evening. My favorite summer style are arrangements that look as if they have been freshly hand picked from the garden. I guess the same could be said for for my summer fashion aesthetic – the effortless (thought it takes effort) look. I’m glad to know I am somewhat consistent.
I typically prefer many small arrangements to one large centerpiece, but it really depends on my mood. My taste ranges from soft and romantic to bold and colorful. Universally, whatever I choose, I make sure they’re not too tall as to obstruct views from my guests across the table.
Whether or not you entertain, flowers are a wonderful way to bring happiness into the home!
