Update on the patio: The party went off without a hitch. Actually no, we ran out of food. But, we are family food-based party newbies no more! (we’re used to feeding everyone alcohol and hors d’œuvres) Next time we’ll be prepared. But back to the whole “Red California” post. We purchased all the major stuff we thought we’d need (chairs, tables etc). But almost every single accessory I tried to purchase was sold out. So my red patio is missing a whole lotta red. I know, excuses excuses.
I saw some cute outdoor accessories at World Market the other day (while I was picking up the pillows below) that I might have to make a return trip for. Thai inspired decor, which Yong approves of.
In the meantime we’ve been slowly bringing color into our living room. In the form of pillows!
Next up are window treatments for the summer (our current ones will be back up for winter, maybe). I’ll be [trying to] DIY some faux roman blinds for the two smaller windows in the room as soon as I find the right fabric. Wish us luck.
