As I was planning out my business so many ideas came flooding through, but the first table I knew I wanted to “officially” host was a cowboy themed dinner party, a nod to my roots.
This was an easy start as I already had many items on hand to set a perfect scene, all I needed were some fitting plates I ended up purchasing on Etsy that came rooted with a little history; a daily table staple in an Ohio farmer’s life.
Once I had the plates in hand, everything else smoothly fell together, from the different textures used woven within the details of the cotton napkins, leather placemats, wooden steak knives, clay serving bowls, and glassware to abundant fall floral textures running the table.
Cowboys are known to create nightly campfires when they are out on the trail, gathering together to socialize and enjoy some grub, eating foods out of cans and whatever else they can find on hand. They endure some of the toughest work out in the lands setting a simplistic lifestyle so I wanted that to translate into this luxury design by using some items you may have seen or used growing up in the country with basic plate and flatware. To complete my vision I chose to serve some good ol BBQ from one of the best local spots complete with iced tea, just as I was raised on.
I feel like I should have more to say about this design, perhaps I don’t because it came together so effortlessly and naturally. I’m so excited to share the photography from my Western-Cowboy themed Dinner Party, incorporating the most beautiful tablescape with floral arrangements designed with Light Brown Lisianthus, Wax Flowers, Dahlias, Chocolate Cosmos, and Amaranthus.
