As the sun lingers longer and warmer evenings beckon, it's time to embrace the al fresco dining season. Whether you're hosting a casual barbecue or a sophisticated soirée, elevating your outdoor dining table can transform a simple meal into a memorable occasion. Here are five styling tips to infuse your outdoor dining space with summer charm.









1. Playful Textiles: Inject personality and comfort into your outdoor dining area with playful textiles. Opt for vibrant tablecloths, patterned placemats, or colorful napkins that reflect the lively spirit of summer. Mixing and matching different textures and prints can add visual interest and create a dynamic tablescape that sparks conversation and joy.










2. Candle Light: Set the mood and add a touch of romance with candlelight from our selection of  Beeswax Tapers . Strategically placed candles or lanterns not only illuminate the table, but also create a warm and inviting ambiance as the sun sets.

3. Height and Depth: Create visual intrigue and dimension by varying the height and depth of your table decor. Incorporate all 3 sizes of our  Athena Candle Holders , floral arrangements in varying vase sizes, or tiered serving trays to add layers to your table setting. This dynamic composition draws the eye and adds a sense of sophistication.









4. Pops of Colour: Embrace the vibrant hues of summer by incorporating pops of color into your outdoor dining decor. Whether through brightly coloured dinnerware, vivid glassware, or our boldly coloured  candles and cement products , infusing your table with splashes of colour instantly enlivens the space and reflects the exuberance of the season. Don't be afraid to mix and match complementary shades to create a cohesive yet eclectic look.

5. Natural Elements: Bring the beauty of the outdoors to your dining table by incorporating natural elements such as freshly picked flowers from the garden. Arrange a bouquet of wildflowers in a rustic vase or scatter fresh fruit along the table for a simple yet elegant touch. Additionally, consider adorning each place setting with a sprig of herbs or vibrant fruit.

Incorporating these five styling tips will elevate your outdoor dining table and create an inviting atmosphere that celebrates the essence of summer. Whether you're hosting a casual gathering with friends or enjoying a quiet dinner under the stars, these design elements will help make every meal a memorable occasion. So, embrace the warmth of the season, indulge in delicious fare, and savor the simple pleasures of outdoor dining this summer.
