It's a lovely day, so I set a table for my husband and myself on our deck off the study. It is a great spot to eat lunch. The fountain has a very soothing sound.
Fuschia's hang from the trellis, along with huge palms in urns.
This is such a happy color.
Purple chargers, along with white and purple floral plates set the mood for this luncheon.
Glass purple compotes complete the look along with the hobnail goblets.
We finally received our new beds with the adjustable base. I will be writing a post on the new beds soon.
We are getting used to them, with all of their bells and whistles. It is a pleasure to watch tv in bed now or read. No more propping up pillows.
I also have a tutorial for a new recipe plugin for Blogger that I will be sharing soon. Happy weekend and don't forget to link up to Sunday's Dishing It & Digging It party.

What a cute table for a garden lunch! The purples are like beautiful amethysts.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I know you and your husband enjoyed a lovely lunch in your beautiful setting. Your lavender theme is so nice. Spring is beautiful at your home. Your lavender is blooming already--wow! Enjoy your weekend. ♥

ReplyDeleteI have never seen purple dishes and glassware. I so envy you. I love the color purple.
ReplyDeleteVery elegant!
ReplyDeletePretty place to enjoy a meal. The purple makes this setting very regal.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Linda!!!!What a gorgeous color. Anything in the blue family from aqua (my favorite) through colbalt blue to lavender just hits me right. And your patio area, you'd think it was in the South of France or maybe England! HAVE FUN!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Linda- love the Lacy tablecloth draped on the chairs. The purple is striking and looks so good outdoors. I bet that new bed is wonderful! It's outside for me today to work in the yard. See you Sunday at the blog party!
ReplyDeleteI just love the colour purple and when you combine it with a simple white and green accents, nothing beats it for simplicity, elegance and freshness. Such a lovely table you've created, Linda. I'm looking enviously at your palm and wondering if I'll ever see green on the trees, lol.
ReplyDeleteFun chatting with you yesterday. Have a great weekend, Wonder Woman. xoox
Wow, hat a gorgeous setting. And I love the table, the purple is really making me smile. It would be hard for me to leave that spot.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
What a pretty table for you and your hubby, Linda! I love the fuchsias and the palms, with the fountain. I can just picture how relaxing it is! Rich and I bought an adjustable bed back in 2009, and I love it. I'm sitting in it right now, eating my breakfast, watching TV and writing to you! Happy weekend to you!
ReplyDeleteWow! Purple is one of my favorite colors and I have a hand blown candy dish on my dining room table with two other pieces right now. I love Lilacs and purple always reminds me of them and Iris's. Beautiful centerpiece!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend dear friend!

Your table looks beautiful Linda, I would love to have lunch here :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by the weekend blog..
Your purples are just stunning, and that lacy tablecloth makes it so romantic! We have been rainy, cold and windy here all week, so this looks especially nice. I can just imagine it with the sound of the water in the background!
ReplyDeletePurple is one of my favorite colors and your table is so inviting. Wish I had your deck outside my bedroom.
ReplyDeleteOh how pretty Linda! I love all your purple dishware, so different and stunning in that beautiful outdoor setting!
ReplyDeleteJenna

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice way to share a quiet lunch together. Your husband is a lucky man to have such a talented wife! Thanks for sharing another lovely tablescape Linda :)
ReplyDeleteLove love your purple!!! I missed this post last week. I was so busy preparing to entertain!
ReplyDeleteEverything is beautiful. Love the hobnob glasses and the other compote pattern. It looks great to mix the textures! Your dishes and chargers are perfect and the flowers! I know the scent was wonderful.
