Do you spend your weekend days crafting with the music
on full volume before gathering your best friends for a
sparkling evening of laughter and chatter? A brightly colored,
eclectic theme will surely appeal to your aesthetic and
lifestyle choices. Choose several of your favorite hues and
have fun with them. Paint furniture in unexpected ways and
juxtapose new with old. Marrying modern gloss finishes with
the weathered nature of found objects will add interest to
your space. Note how a functional workspace and plenty of
storage for craft supplies have been placed along one wall,
freeing up the central area for social gatherings. The wealth
of storage space means it’s easy to clear the desk space to
make way for a makeshift bar or nibbles table when you wish
to entertain. Let guests mingle in the summerhouse before
moving outside for a causal meze dinner.
Here’s where you get to showcase your creative efforts as
homespun placemats adorn the tabletop, and Maison jars
spray painted in zesty hues play host to bunches of waxflower
and roses. The eclectic theme continues with mix-and-match
cutlery, and napkins tied up with leftover ribbons. And the
laid back, social feel created inside the summer house is seen
again in the outdoor dining area, where scattered cushions
replace chairs and a reclaimed door functions as a makeshift
table. Homemade bunting and hand-painted votives complete
this look, which is perfect celebrating the arrival of warmer
months with a craft party or cocktail soiree. Cheers! Shop
