Summer makes me long for the outdoor
bistro.
Out on a busy sidewalk... people watching. Whether you are drinking coffee or having a glass of wine. Solo or with a group of friends. That is what summer is all about, being outside...Relaxing.
So I cleared a room/space at the Barn....No, let me clarify, Cheryl, my highly talented friend, sales associate, stylist extraordinaire...Barn Girl.
Cheryl cleared the room for me so I could come in at the end of the day and play.
Oh thank you God for sending me Cheryl

...and what fun I had.
In fact, it took me all week to get all the finishing touches done

The metal mirror works great for a tray.... a few low candles at night... can you feel the romance. Obviously I was going for the wine theme... I must have been ready for the weekend.
