LUNCH OR DINNER IN GARDEN OR TERRACE

Let’s start with a location often used due to her functionality: garden or terrace. What we need, it is be a solid table positioned at a stable point, and chairs with pillows for make them more comfortable. The next step is set up the table and add the decorations. We have a plenty of possibilities about, now I give you some tips but then feel you free to use your imagination.

The tablecloth is fundamental for the success of your meal, for this reason, if you’re interested look at our online shop.

For who loves patterned tablecloths, we have different floral patterns, geometric, abstract or with leaves. Moreover, a characteristic that you don’t have to underrated is that our tablecloths are waterproof and non-iron.

An important rule to keep in mind is that the tablecloth must be combined with the dishes and cutlery, but also with the surrounding area around your table. So, if you prefer a patterned tablecloth, it might be better use white or ivory dishes. Then you must embellish your table. You can use as a centerpiece a beautiful jar of water with fragrant flowers, or a few twigs of aromatic herbs.
