Follow up on Not Neutral lantern

I just wanted to post this photo of the lantern in my last post actually in my garden. Looks pretty cool huh? Don't you just want one in your garden?????

Loving outdoor lighting.....

As you all know, I LOVE LOVE outdoor entertaining and everything that goes with it...(furniture, cocktails, fabric, cocktails, lighting...) so I have to share this line I carry at the shop that is AMAZING in the garden. The Not Neutral Lantern is an amazing addition to my garden because of the amazing light it gives off. This is not just another garden lantern, what makes it special is the candle stem that lifts out of the lanterns and allows you to light all 5 candles at once without having to reach inside and burn yourself. Also, since there are multiple candles on multiple levels, the light comes out the entire piece instead of just having one candle at the bottom.

Anyhoo....the pictures are below.......LOVELY! Should you happen to want on (or three) they come in black, white, yellow, lime green and black as well as 4 sizes. Look at that glow!!!! So cool!!!! Check them out below......


I have the largest size in orange siting on the edge of my deck and can be viewed from everywhere in the garden...DIVINE!

IT'S TIME FOR A SUMMER SALE!!!!!

almost finished.....

As most of you know, The French one and I have been working towards completion in our ongoing garden re-design project. Whew. That's a mouthful. To inaugurate our new deck and to celebrate our bdays (11 days apart) we had a few people over and I, being totally lame, forgot to take pictures during the party.

To make up for it, here are a few photos of the ongoing progress. We are soooooo close to being done, but here's what we have so far........

This is my courtyard. The parasol is a new piece from Droog Design through Sywawa in Belgium. We have these at the shop - in a beautiful kelly green and this lovely, pristine white.....

This photo is taken from the table with the white parasol. These seating pieces are both by Fermob, from the Luxembourg collection. Love the orange......

..same courtyard, different wall.....and the beginning of my agave collection....oh yeah - and a super cool ponicirus in the silver pot. (Hardy Chinese orange)

.....last courtyard picture and more of my agave collection.......


This shot is from the new deck and boardwalk down into the lounge area - I love this sectional - so comfy! We used the Duralee outdoor octopus fabric and Aqua Velvet by Holly Hunt - so incredibly durable... This is a seriously lovely place to sit and enjoy a cocktail. There is a stack of cozy blankets on the sectional in case it gets chilly.......

This is from the boardwalk looking up at the new deck.....I can't believe it is finished! SO COOL! 64" square teak table and woven wicker chairs by Schou, HUGE red pots in the background (48" tall) by Rotoluxe, Marimekko Unikko umbrella by Fatboy and gorgeous orange lantern by Not Neutral...... I love my space!

That's it for now.....more later!
