Summer Entertaining Essentials

Written by Caitlin M. on June 10, 2011 in Entertaining, Lifestyle - 8 Comments

One of our favorite things about summer is the easy and laid-back vibe that comes along with it. Who doesn’t love having friends over frequently, hosting impromptu barbecues, and enjoying leisurely summer evenings in the backyard? It helps to have a few fun and festive essentials on hand for when guests pop by — all you need is a fresh bouquet of flowers and chilled wine in the fridge!

1. Party Time Gold Plastic Cutlery
2. Ikea Fun Glass Tumblrs
3. Crate and Barrel Artesia Wicker Serving Tray
4. Fish Eddy Mermaid Bottle Opener
5. Luna Bazaar Turquoise Blue Gilded Votive Candles
6. Bongenre Winchester Mandla in Deep Purple
7. Ikat & Batik Patterned Cloth Napkins

Love this. I am moving from Chicago to CA soon and I am looking forward to having an outside space I can entertain in.
