The Fourth of July is my favorite holiday to celebrate . . . what a fun day it always is! Celebrating our country will never go out of style & neither will red, white, and blue. Thank you Carolyne Roehm for yet again a fabulously decorated party.
My mom has made our little home in Orange, California absolutely darling {and I have helped!} I love the casual feel it has . . . a little beachy . . . it's fresh, crisp, and classy. I owe my creative side to her.

This table screams summer barbeque, and I'm loving every little bit of it! The mini champagne bottles add such a fun touch. The wooden flatware is also very versatile for any spring/summer gathering. And, of course, the sunflowers are fantastic as a bright and welcoming centerpiece.
