SIMPLE SUMMER OUTDOOR ENTERTAINING | OUTDOOR DINNER PARTY ON A BUDGET

[@ACharmingAbode]

Edit* For all those who are concerned about the candles on the hay bales, we are having a VERY wet summer here in Kansas! The hay bales were so wet, that is why they are in the video! They are too heavy with water to move! Please realize I have more common sense than you are giving me credit for!

[@Kim-Dalton]

You take the time and you make the extra effort to make your guests feel special by the way you prepare for their visit. I would love to be invited to your house for Dinner (indoor or outdoor). You definitely have the gift of hospitality.

[@ACharmingAbode]

You are too sweet 🥰 thank you so much 💕

[@ladypeach7569]

Love your videos! U are so sweet, too! Blessings to you and your family. ☺️

[@sunshsophprd.0565]

the napkins holder!!!!

[@ACharmingAbode]

I’ve loved those things for years!

[@katherinelowell6603]

I just want to hang out in your crafty attic storage room! With a cup of coffee!

[@ACharmingAbode]

How about some iced tea instead? It's kind of toasty in there right now! LOL

[@CRebecca1944]

Everything looks so pretty.Good friends and good food outside, can’t beat it.🙋🏼‍♀️👍

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you 😊 I totally agree!

[@ginasmith6145]

What a great idea! I would have been afraid to light the candles with them sitting on the hay bales.

[@BakingNana]

Lovely! Living in the Midwest as well (wind!) and I invested in some good flameless tapers to use outside. The new moving flames look so real, especially at night.

[@ItsKelsiesLife]

So pretty!! Love the blue and orange combo!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you 🥰

[@mariawilliams1314]

Love all of your decor ideas! I wouldn’t want to out anything on that new front door, it is just gorgeous! 😊❤😊🌼🌸

[@BeautifulLivingHome]

You look so beautiful!🌺 I love your earrings and jumper!

[@ACharmingAbode]

You’re so sweet ♥️ thank you 😊

[@noreenflaherty4309]

Every thing looks great. And always great see Jason pop up.

[@natsofatso1969]

Wow you were so right about the orange and blue. Looks gorgeous

[@feliciacardone8900]

Super cozy and cute. Good food, good friends makes great memories..you nailed it💞

[@kansasgirl8371]

Such a pretty tablescape!!! Love the fruit as centerpiece. When I use citrus, I cut one or two in half to fill the air with the smell of orange or lemon. Those napkin rings are adorable. It was perfection!

[@orgjam]

You are such a talent ! Such a pretty table scape ! I'm from Kansas CIty, so I KNOW the wind can be a pain !

[@sarahm1236]

So lovely!! Looks like a perfect summer evening to me. ✨🌳🌙 🌲 Keeping your family in prayer.🙏🏻 God bless you!✝️

I was looking for a nice Father's Day table setting--this is perfect. Thanks for sharing

[@jad8123]

I draw the line putting my dinning chairs outside. LOL!!!! Looks very nice and relaxing. I will say the real candles were stressing me out. That’s why I use flameless ones. LOL!!!!! Keep up the good work.

[@elianafleck7507]

Really liked the blue and orange combination. Everyone pairs blue with white or yellow. I am definitely going use this!

[@francesthompson1324]

A very nice fruit bowl and blue table cloth with the candles. You look so lovely in the peach outfit. Thank you for sharing these ideas. Fantastic😍

[@cathyagugliaro559]

It looks so charming and inviting. My best friend did just this at her home, brought the inside out for an intimate party of her 3 good friends. It was so lovely. It was an experience I will never forget. She died a year ago. This special time with her remains in my memory forever! ❤️🥰

[@ACharmingAbode]

beautiful!

[@vickygdillon]

Truly Charming!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you! 😊💖

[@deborahpetipas9365]

Very nice. If your table had benches I would use those for the base of the candles. Or even drink stations. Only draw back, it made me a bit nervous with lit candles on dry hay bales.

[@ACharmingAbode]

Lol the hay bales were actually wet from the rain we just had! All is well!

[@deborahpetipas9365]

Wet hay...a much better situation. I shop my house too. Saves money!

[@deborc2705]

Gosh your attic looks like a Michael’s store. I see why it is easy to shop your stock in your home.

[@reginahunt2945]

Beautifully done.

[@lourdesescobar7921]

Nice, cute!

[@tinagriesemer195]

That is so enchanting!!!

[@ACharmingAbode]

[@ksharm777]

This all looks so inviting. What an enjoyable evening this would make. Whose music are you playing in this video?

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you! This was just royalty free music from Epidemic Sound. Glad you enjoyed it! 💕

[@ksharm777]

@@ACharmingAbode Thanks for the reply.....do you know who the singer is?

[@deeshea3286]

Well done!

[@silvanaosullivan3082]

Hi can you tellme where you got the cadenlabra I love it looks so chic and elegant you really inspired me I would like to get couple of those too thank you and have a wonderful summer

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you so much 😊 I bought those years ago from a store called Nell Hills. So unfortunately I can’t link them!

[@tammylewis6296]

[@sharonsteelman6330]

Wow, love it. Can I come??😂 It looks absolutely lovely. You are the perfect host.

[@jofinney9543]

Beautiful!! At my daughters outside wedding we tried lighting candles .. I giggled all the way through because every time I lit one the wind blew it out 🤣

[@ACharmingAbode]

Oh no! LOL 😂

[@katieskottage8251]

Lovely as always!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thanks Katie! ♥️

[@donnakearse2503]

So cute. Love your channel. I share it with my daughters-in -laws. They love your ideas and think you are a cutie.

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thanks for sharing!! That is so sweet of you! 💖😊

[@kfrankism]

So beautiful. The table looks so pretty and the colors go so well together. Where is the food going to fit since the centerpiece is so large? I suppose you might have another table as a buffet style, but I want to have everything on the table if possible.

[@ACharmingAbode]

When we eat outside, a lot of time I set the food up inside because of flies, etc. Removing the centerpiece for food is also a great option, if you want the food right there.

[@MarieRhondelle]

Loveley setting!!

[@kathyrossi9769]

Everything looks so good 😊 You have the best ideas an decorations. I hope you an Jason are having a great summer 💕 Can’t wait for the Next video 😊I really believe you could be a Interior designer🌸 Kathy

[@ACharmingAbode]
