I have always loved tablescapes. My mom made us set the table every.single.night. growing up. She was a wiz at throwing together an amazing table for dinner parties and holidays. And then I married my husband whose mom not only set her dinner table but also set every breakfast and lunch table (to the nines). So I like to say that my love of table setting runs in the family.

I could spend hours looking at Pinterest and Instagram gathering ideas for my next table. However, up until recently I never spent the money to invest in items to set my table how I wanted. The cost of everything I wanted seemed overwhelming so I just never pulled the trigger. When we moved into our new house I decided it was a good time to buy two new sets of plates (the plates that are pictured). I loved them and used them a lot so when the quarantine of 2020 happened, I started doing some research on my next set. I really think it is the one great thing that has come from being stuck inside, I have had time to find all the pieces I have want to make my Tablescape dreams come true.

One of my favorite tablescape finds is my Estelle Colored Glasses. I have followed their account on Instagram for a while and always dreamed of having a cupboard full of their beautiful colored glasses (just look at this dreamy photo). They have everything from lavender, coral, rose, cobalt, etc. Every color your tabletop needs. When you see the glasses your mind just starts spinning with ideas. It was hard to choose a color but since I have so many items in green and I felt it was perfect for summer, I went with Forrest green. It is gorgeous and perfect for all of my future tablescapes. I am truly blown away by the quality of these glasses. They are sold for $175 for a set of 6 ($30 per glass) which is an exceptional price for luxury hand-blow glass. Each glass is thick and sturdy which is a really nice break from the thin and very fragile glass that was popular a few years ago.  I am not lying when I say how beautiful these glasses are and how they really complete my table. I am hoping to add the Coral Peach Pink set to my collection next.

I am so excited to continue to bring you tablescapes. They have saved my sanity in this time of quarantine and have been so fun to create.

Since the warm days are upon us I have been spending so much more time poolside. One of the questions I have been getting asked is where our outdoor furniture is from. Before we were moving, I spent a lot of time choosing which furniture I wanted. It is such an investment and I knew I wanted something that would stand the test of time and the Texas heat. I spent months looking for the perfect pieces but I kept going back to Serena and Lily. I loved their classic and clean style. Every time I looked at their website it was exactly the vibe I wanted to walk out of my house to every day.

We started with the Serena and Lily Pacifica chaise lounge, which are extremely comfortable. We do use covers when we aren’t using them but they have really held up well thus far. The back of the chair is adjustable which makes it perfect for reading, lounging or napping. After the chaise lounges were chosen I picked the umbrellas that were one of my favorite items on the website. They reminded me of something you would see at a boutique hotel or in a Slim Aaron’s picture.

One of the last items we purchased was the Crate and Barrel Regatta table. I knew I wanted a teak wood table to keep with the classic theme we had going on. I love the look of natural teak and how it offset all of the white we had previously purchased. I love this table so much however, it is worth noting that teak wood is very sensitive to water and sun. We cover this table when we aren’t using it but it has still be suseptible to the outdoor conditions. We weren’t told that you are supposed to seal teak wood to keep it the natural color and protect it from water and sun. This is a project that is on my husbands to-do list.

The chairs for the table are the Serena and Lily Capistrano dining chair. I love the way they look with the table! They don’t fit all the way under the table so you would need to buy separate covers for them other than the cover that you use on the table. We haven’t been covering these chairs and I have been surprised how well they have held up. They also come with cushions (Not pictured) which make the chairs very comfortable for a meal.
