In between the renovations and busy over here
a little bit of summer styling started to appear around the house.
Just a sprinkling
because the ‘living room stuff’
is kind of everywhere at this point.
Refinishing floors does that.
Like the sofa’s are on the patio.
The dining table and vintage cupboard are on the lawn
and
some of the white dishes that were inside the buffet deux corps
went to the vintage china cabinet.
But even though it is a temporary move for some of them
I couldn’t resist playing a bit.
It started with stacking and layering the dishes
and inspiration from oranges
and few fresh clippings.
I have quite a few Lambs Ear and Dusty Miller mixed in with the flowers
out in the garden area- though since I needed a chunk of them for a styling-
these are actually from the SF Flower Market- along with those pretty garden roses
that look just like ranunculus.
I am a huge fan of silvery faded greens.
And those soft salt washed colors sprinkled
with wicker and chippy wood were a perfect mix.
A few dried hydrangeas found their way to the top of the cupboard
in a shallow dough bowl and after snapping a few photos-
I called it good.
Simple and sweet and perfect for a summer styling
that you can refresh all summer long with fresh fruit and clippings.
Busy couple weeks coming up
and I am hitting the ground running today
but stay tuned for a couple of floor updates coming your way
a summer table styling
and much more.
Hope your week is off to a great start!
You aren't consumed in dust with the floor refinishing? Lucky you!
Your photos are so charming and dreamy.
Love the soft oranges with the dusty greens. Gorgeous vignette.
Looks simply beautiful and inviting. xo
Looking forward to the upstyling you are designing in your cottage, and your foto's here are so farmhouse amazing.
Love the mood you created, and you would never have guest you are in the middle of anything else going on other then taking beautiful foto's of your summer look.
See you soon.

I find your poem charming! It helped me to get rid of paper writing block. Such an excellent mood and feeling flow through me, like the summer breath. Thank you a lot for this moments.
Very stylish post and incredibly beautiful photographs. Easy and simple style with it's special highlight, this is what I was looking for! I see that everything is done with love and affection. In any case difficult to become a master, but with the help of (essayoneday) I don't feel complexity in writing an essay at all. It's always better to rely on the masters of their craft.
