A Table Tout Le Monde: Backyard Picnic

We can hardly believe that August is already half-way over, but here at the Paris Market we're not ready to say goodbye to summer just yet. We're going to spend time outdoors basking in the warm, late afternoon sun for as long as we can & what better way to do that than setting a table in your backyard or on your back patio & sharing a meal with friends. With this table setting, featuring ceramic bisqueware, handwoven napkins, & handmade wooden napkin holders, you really can't go wrong. And, even better, all the little pops of color help to set the mood for a lovely summer evening. So ring the dinner bell & call everyone to the table because it's time to eat!  

Currently Inspired: The Color Pink

Although summer is going to be coming to an end before we know it, we're doing all we can to hold on to the spirit of summer for as long as we can. One way that we do that is by surrounding ourselves with the bright, beautiful colors that make us feel especially summery, like the color pink! Whether we're sweetening our day with Choward's Tropical Guava Candy or accessorizing with one of our linen scarves, we do it with pink in mind. We just can't help but feel summery when writing in one of our pink floral notebooks or burning one of our Aquesse Mission Fig candles. Stop by soon to add some pink to your collection and keep the vibe of summer alive!!

Candle of the Week: Lafco Patio

There's nothing better than enjoying a casual cookout on the back patio. It's the sort of thing that summers are made of and we like to take advantage of it every opportunity we can! Seeing as we've been spending most of our evenings this way, we couldn't resist naming Lafco's Patio scent as our candle of the week! Perfect for summer evenings out back, Patio is a delightful blend of white geranium and mint leaves. Mellow, fresh, floral and green, Patio acts as a natural bug repellent, so you and your family can enjoy a comfortable evening grilling out back, free from irritating insects. See you at the grill!

On the Table: Early Summer Gathering

It's hard not to love summer. Everything seems to slow down this time of year, which is a refreshing break from the typical chaos leading up to the summer. It's also the time of year when it's much easier to find time to visit with friends and family. Sitting down for an evening meal outdoors is just about as good as life can get and we plan on doing plenty of it this summer! With our latest tablescape, we've incorporated our favorite summertime linens and cloths for a light summer feast. Vintage gold-rimmed plates, enamelware mugs and colorful French flatware make this table the perfect setting to gather around, catch up with old friends and make new summer memories in the south. Dinner may not be ready just yet, but at least we can set the table for when it is. Bon Appetit!    

This Just In: Handmade Leather Bracelets

Without a doubt, one of the best perks of living in Savannah is the community of local artisans that live and work in the Hostess City.
