Another amazing spring day! After spending the entire winter indoors, I want to be outside or on our sunporch as much as possible!
Blue and white is my tablescape this week. Beautiful spring weather with the blue water is so refreshing that I always want to dig into my blue stuff.
Our sunporch is called a "three season room" -- we use it in spring, summer and fall. The windows are all made of a vinyl, believe it or not. They're called Eze-Breeze panels. They are weather-resistant panels installed on aluminum frames and can be clear or tinted to provide shade and give privacy. The view through them is extremely clear! Our windows are tinted, so we can see out but nobody can see in. When they are open, it's like having a giant screened-in porch.
The vinyl panels have a unique glazing and they are shatterproof. If something hits them or is pushed into them, the material will flex and return to its original form. They are feather-light and made to glide up or down without any effort. They also tilt in or lift out and are quite easy to clean.
We just love this room!
 |
| As always, I try to keep the setting light and airy on the sunporch! |
 |
| A touch of Easter with the bunny plates. |
 |
| Rattan chargers. I love chargers instead of a placemat. Or with a placemat! |
 |
| White swirl on the goblets is beautiful and accented by the cobalt blue wine glasses. |
 |
| Bunny dishes are from Pottery Barn purchased this year. |
 |
| Blue and white dishes are Queens "Calico" |
 |
| White salt and pepper shakers. Love the shape of these. |
 |
| Side table has white serving bowl filled with decorative blue and white ceramic balls. |
 |
| Blue and white balls are also the centerpiece! |
 |
| A view from above. Calm water on the lake today. |
 |
| Using off white, almost cream napkins and my Julliard flatware. |
 |
| Blue candles in crystal holders help to keep it feeling light and airy. |
 |
| Ready to enjoy another spring evening! |
