Before it gets too hot, dine al fresco with your family! You don’t need a special occasion to set a pretty table outdoors. Use a potted plant or two as your centerpiece and pull out the stops: placemats, napkins, glassware (or deckware). Pieces you already own will take on new life in an outdoor setting! Mix and match your dinnerware to have some fun, but keep it simple so you can enjoy the scenery and the company. As you see here, House Beautiful showcases lovely table settings in the great outdoors, as does Southern Living. Visit their websites for simple inspiration without spending a dime. Light a few citronella candles to keep unwanted guests at bay and enjoy your new dining space!
