Hey my sweet friends! How’s everyone? Wonderful, I hope :)
Thank you so much for all of your encouraging comments on my
blue cupboard! Most of you advise to leave it as is…and that is
exactly what I am doing…for now ;)
Today I’d like to share our outdoor dining area on our back porch.
This space is one of our families’ favorite spots to enjoy a meal
together while the weather is still tolerable.
I set a simple table mixing old with new.
Tea lights placed in water-filled ball jars make for a nice
candlelit dinner.
My new sponsor, BurlapFabric.com sent me these fabulous
burlap drawstring bags. The burlap bags are perfect for plant
holders (above) and make nice placemats (below).
I also have my potting bench in this area, where I’ve been
planting some sweet basil to enjoy in our summer salads.
You might remember…our kitchen is in the middle of a little re-model.
So the “herbs” and “asparagus” signs have found new homes here.
BurlapFabric.com also carries sisal twine and jute rolls for all your
landscaping projects.
I’m joining Donna's Patios & Porches Party
and
Come back soon for a giveaway and the kitchen reveal :)
Thanks so much for visiting and thanks for all of your votes

Beautiful but just so you know, if you see a whole bunch of strangers sitting on your porch and eating your porridge, it is your own fault :) LOL. Just like attracting bees to honey...

I love your porch with the beautiful tabledecoration
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table scape. I have a special love for using chicken feeders and yours is no exception. Gorgeous
ReplyDeleteLovely, Becky! I am so inspired by your natural and textured decorating. The burlap looks great. Our new patio set is in brown tones and I was having trouble making my bright blue and green outdoor fabrics look right with it but I'm now thinking I am going in the wrong direction. I think I need to embrace more neutrals and galvanized metals. Thanks so much for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous. I love it all!
ReplyDeleteI love how you have the table set, Becky. It looks wonderful. I can attest that this is a fabulous place to eat a meal. So relaxing... especially dining with y'all.
ReplyDeleteI love ya!
Your table is gorgeous! I love the rustic burlap with the fine plates and goblets. Very chic!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a fun relaxing spot to enjoy the warm days. I love your table display and potting bench. Can I ask where you got all your little zinc pots? I've been looking for some...that I can actually afford:-)

ReplyDeleteYour porch looks like the perfect place to enjoy a meal together. We do that quite often in the warmer months. Breakfast on the weekends and dinner in the evenings tastes so much better on the porch. Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Becky your back patio is just gorgeous gorgeous!!! Girl you always inspire me!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Becky, this is simply stunning! I had to scroll through the pictures several times to take it all in. You did an amazing job creating a welcoming farmhouse chic spot to enjoy special times together as a family.

ReplyDeleteBECKY! good gravy...you will not even believe this...here I was minding my own (wasting time) on Pinterest, and I fell in love with that outdoor dining shot - repinned it - and then noticed it was yours!
ReplyDeleteholy camoly - that is the coolest table setting -

Gorgeous images Becky, are those cows in the background yours and if so are they for milking? I especially love the herb garden.
ReplyDeleteI have meant to ask you for a while now what camera do you use, maybe I did ask if I did I apologise. I am still looking at cameras so that I can take my own images for my blog as you do.
