Summer is the season in which I do most of my entertaining...that is outdoor entertaining.  Pool parties, back-yard barbeques and evening soirees are just a few that come to my mind.  I love entertaining outdoors because it lends to more of a relaxed and inviting atmosphere.  I desparately try to keep my guest list to under 15 guests so that I am able to interact more intimately with each of my guest.  When I am decorating an outdoor space, I always try to incorporate the same design principles that I would use when decorating an indoor space.  Once the space is decorated, I just simply throw in some good food, good music and great company, then let the partying begin!

Spring is here!!!!...Yeah!  I love the spring season!  I love all the new and fresh spring colors in home accents, fabrics and paint colors.  If the spring colors alone don't motivate you to decorate, then I don't know what will....LOL!!!  Hopefully this whimsical chair slipcover I found at Pier 1 Imports will get you motivated to decorate your home for the spring.....It's Haute!!!
