My love of interiors and design began with helping friends and family style rooms for special events. Coupled with my favorite time of the year (Summer) getting prepared for some rockin’ parties is one of my specialties. I found some great products that will be essentials to the season of fun in the sun.

ESSENTIAL INGREDIENTS:

Round Party Table & Tablecloth from Ballard Designs
Use it indoors and out and style your room with sophistication!

Personalized Napkins, Ballard Design
You’ll be so happy you did it! They are simple, chic and personal.

Stainless Steel Wine & Ice Bucket
You think you don’t need it until YOU DO!

Fire Pit
You’ll be so glad you did it – for telling stories and making memories.

Cool Melamine Plates, Target.com
You gotta have ‘em! Set the table right…
