Spring is all about refreshing the home and casting out cold, dreary winter. Kitchens are scrubbed and cleaned. Place mats in pale yellows and light blues adorn the kitchen table. Menus begin to feature crisp greens and subtle hints of color. It’s all about thinking fresh, clean, and simple.
Summer, on the other hand, is all about the bold and the beautiful. Farmers markets are bursting with juicy tomatoes, spicy peppers, and sweet berries. Families abandon the kitchen and turn to the grill for fiery menus and outdoor entertaining. And the gorgeous, vibrant plates, table clothes, and napkins come out of the cupboards. It’s time to celebrate the vibrant, flavorful, and colorful season.
I’m loving this stunning dishware from Crate & Barrel. The bright poppy plates are perfect for outdoor entertaining, while the Bianca dinner plates are the ideal splash of color for the kitchen. Then there’s this fun lobster pail for fish/shrimp/lobster/crab boils! It’s a fun addition to any outdoor setting.
How are you getting your kitchen ready for summer? Do you have an outdoor living space?
