Dinner with dancing candles :))

  Hi there...Hope all had a wonderful V-day celebration with your loved ones. The chillness in the air moving away here slowly and the months are heading towards Spring/ Summer. Nice to see Spring plants are getting ready for the season with tender leaves and buds. In the last few weeks i have done few settings in our garden when the blooms were in their best. Also i must thank Barbra of 'French Ethereal' blog to feature my post 'An evening garden setting' in her share your style blog select. Once again thank you Barbara. I am really really overwhelmed.  Here is a garden setting again with the blooms for this week.

V-day table for Two:)))

 Love is in the air. To feel the saying and to get it going set an V-day table for two among the greenery on the terrace garden. The table was set next to an kumquat orange tree and placed few flowering pots near the table. The sun was going down and it was the right time to click the shots to get the feel of love. I loved arranging the mix of color on the table as V-day too a colorful day of the hearts💘. The flowers are blooms from our garden. It was an quick set table with fresh fruits, glass of juice from the oranges as it make a wonderful drink. Candles never get missed  on a V-day as candles make the day magical specially when it comes to table for two. Get inspired to set a table on the porch, back yard, front or on the terrace where ever you like to. Welcome and enjoy the day with family, friends and with your sweet hearts.          Please visit our hopeful home Please visit nap on the porch

Our gardening is mostly container gardening on the terrace. Our lifestyle has become more or less like 'slow living' since our childre...
