Photo Shoot Fun

June 03, 2011 1 min read 10 Comments

It has been glorious weather here! Sunny, but low 70's, a slight ocean breeze, just perfect. I've had such fun in the garden this week with some photo shoots for upcoming products. The Campagne Line, shown here, will be available mid June here at FrenchGardenHouse. Absolutely perfect for entertaining outside. A few baguettes, some cheeses, fruit and a drink are all you need to enjoy life and your family or friends.

Wicker covered glass Pitcher, perfect for serving sweet tea, lemonade or cool refreshing water on your porch, in the garden, or at your table. Simple, great quality and practical, the essence of the French country lifestyle.

Charming wicker domes that protect your delicious repast from flying critters, perhaps hungry-before-their-time husbands and children {not sure about that, it's easy to lift the dome!} In Normandy, wicker domes like this cover and protect the cheese course, plates of Brie and Camembert. Designed by a French Company, a useful piece you will use again and again. The bottom tray has a removable glass insert. Covered Domes such as this add a wonderful French flair (and practicality!) to any meal in your home or garden

For serving all your favorite wines with great style chez vous, these wicker covered Carafes are divine. Wishing you a happy, sun and laughter filled weekend. {We are off for a one day "up the coast" shopping spree for fall and Holiday. As I'm committed to doing a magazine entertaining feature for the holidays, I'll try my best to buy some fantastic antique tableware etc. to showcase in our holiday feature.}

I love all these wicker pieces. They would be so lovely for dining alfresco. And your photos are gorgeous! What beautiful vignettes you created.

This should be the poster for spring! the wicker is not only charming and organic but helps with those sweaty summer glasses from slipping out of one’s hands.
Your images are beautiful!
What an inspired visit.

Thanks for visiting Mona, I know what you mean, it can get a bit hectic with real life and blogging, too! Try the burgers, they really are very good.

Elyse, hi! I agree, that is my absolute favorite kind of weather too, low 70’s with a breeze. Hope you are enjoying it to the fullest, friend. xo

Oh, I’ve missed having the opportunity to keep up and comment. Love your new blog. Those turkey burgers look delicious. I’ll have to save the recipe to my favorites. The tablescape is beautiful. Love all the wicker. Hope all is well with you. Mona

hi lidy,

i have been using the exact word “glorious” to describe our weather here in RI, too. it’s been beautiful and breezy and in the high 60s-low 70s — my favorite.

beautiful styling! the blue gingham ribbon adds just the right touch.
