Setting the table

Love the colors, love the rustic table, love the two colors chosen for the tapers, love the natural easy looking florals, love the chairs (my parents have a couple of these Mogens Koch chairs...), love the simple light fixture...

All done up by non other that Gwyneth Paltrow and first spotted here. Oh, and by the way, she has just released a new cook book; My Fathers Daughter. I did see it at the book store the other day, but didn't have time to read it. Any of you had a chance to work with it??

It's the Weekend...

Well, it's Easter weekend to be exact, and for all of you celebrating, I wish you a wonderful time!!

I do not have the house decked out in Easter bunnies, but you could check out this post for a cute take on some colorful ones, or this one for a fantastic image....
If you are cooking, why not try one of recipes courtesy Eddie Ross and his team, I think I'll try the scalloped potatoes, it's been a really long time since I did up a batch of those!!

OK, so that was a lot of links away from Northern Light, I hope you are still with me?!
Please share a little about how you and your family will celebrate, if at all!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Napkin folding 101

The Easter bunny has a place at the table this year, I think...

If you celebrate the Easter holiday, here is a cute little DIY napkin-folding-tip, that I just think it's the cutest! Below you can find the instructions, have fun setting the table!!

I am also including this cute idea for color, but truthfully, I think this might be too time consuming... Who really has the time to make sure that egg stays put, and that the cute gingham ribbon bow is tied perfectly? You know I would be there tying the bows over and over and over..... NOPE, not this time! :)

Have a fun time folding the napkins for your Holiday table!
