Hello sweet friends and welcome to Everyday Living’s five year blogiversary…I can’t believe it has been five years! Many of you began the journey with us, but so many have joined us along the way. We are forever grateful for you our readers. Without you there would be no blog. As we have shared our lives with you, many of you have shared your lives with us…prayer requests, celebrations, memories and much more. Most of us will never meet this side of heaven, but we share a beautiful virtual friendship.
Because we have the very best readers, we have a fun giveaway! Read how you can enter at the bottom of this post. Now let’s look back on a few memories.
Tablescapes Tuesdays have been weekly since the blog began. I have been setting tables and hosting dinners for many years learning from the best teacher, my beloved mother. When I first joined Facebook, I would occasionally share a tablescape and from so many encouraging comments, Tablescape Tuesday was born. I chose this one from the archives…autumn is my favorite season, so why not a box of autumn?!
You rarely see a peek into my kitchen, but this is where the day begins!READ MORE
“Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”
1 John 4:11
Hello dear friends! I have joined a group of creative table stylists to bring you tabletop inspiration for late summer dining and entertaining. A special thank you to Chloe from Celebrate & Decorate for organizing this fun blog hop.
We are experiencing our hottest temperatures of the season, but I braved the heat so I could share an alfresco table of zinnia bouquets!
It seems that lately every time I set an outdoor table, it threatens rain. It became very dark, but fortunately no rain. In case you missed it, you can read about last week’s rain experience here.
You will find the schedule and all the links at the bottom of this post.
My inspiration for the table is the “zinnia bouquet” tablecloth from April Cornell. I saw it on the website in late spring and since I love zinnias and enjoy growing them, I just had to order it.READ MORE
