Create Tuscany At Your Table With These 6 Ideas
I love Tuscany, Italy. Bring some of that charm by creating Tuscany at your table with these 6 ideas.
Tuscany At Your Table
One of my favorite places int he works is Tuscany, Italy. I have been there many time and always wanting me when I leave. So to keep the heart of Tuscany close to me I brought Tuscany to my table. . The lifestyle in Tuscany is all about family and gathering. There is a always a large dining room table and everything is comfortable and relaxing. If you want to set a table that looks like one in Tuscany here are 5 ideas to add a little your tablescape.
How To Get This Look
1: Rustic Table
Start off with a large rustic table and comfy chairs. The table should be large enough to feed a large family and friends.
2: Colorful linen
I love visiting the quaint Italian villages filled with cobblestone streets and lovely homes. The homes are filled with rustic style furniture. There is always a splash of color in glasses and colorful napkins. So when picking napkins make sure the designs are either flowers such as sunflowers or colorful fruits like lemons or strawberry.
3: Lots of sparkling water
There is always a bottle of water on the table whether it be sparking or tap.
4:. Fresh Flowers
In spring, in Tuscany, you’ll find local flowers red poppies, purple wisteria, and shades of roses on the dining room tables. So adding fresh flowers is such a great way to create a Tuscan table.
5: Food
Food in Tuscany, are traditionally hearty and made with simple ingredients. There is always bread, roasted meats, and local vegetables as daily meals. .
6: Wine
Wine is a integral part of the Tuscany region. There are lots of Vineyards. The last time we visited we ordered a case of red wine and they shipped it to my house. As for quality of wine Tuscany wine is the best around. No table is complete without a bottle of red wine. Here is some info about Tuscan wine

I really love the yellow pop of color with the lemons. It works well with the neutral flower arrangements.
I love lemons! I have them around! I want to get a real lemon tree to put in Foyer, but I’m afraid it may not survive if its not outside, need to research that!
Thanks
