Entertaining & Dining Alfresco

Skip the flowers for this outdoor dinner. On this tablescape our trays are filled with Small Leaf Basil with Variegated Thyme for the corners. “Use them as centerpieces during a meal, and encourage guests to pinch the leaves to release their scents or pluck some basil to toss on their salads.” – Martha Stewart Living

We’ll finish with this outdoor dining tip from The Wall Street Journal: “Crown the table, block the wind and set the mood with blazing centerpieces.” Make a selection from our large inventory of hurricanes and fill them with white or ivory candles.
