It is early Sunday morning here in South Africa. My husband is away in New Zealand, my 9 year old twins are away at a sleepover, my older 2 boys are still fast asleep and I am very content in bed with a cup of coffee, a sleeping puppy and my laptop, taking advantage of the peace and quiet to compile a new blog post.
I love the casual feel of wicker chairs paired with a rustic table for informal dining!
One can just imagine this table filled with luscious Mediterranean fare like meze or tapas and, of course, a carafe or two of wine. (I shouldn't be thinking of wine so early in the morning, should I?)
I like this idea of interspersing wicker with upholstered chairs. Make sure your kids use the wicker ones!
I love the cabinet in the background and the contrast between the crystal chandelier and the rustic wicker.
These chairs look more like banana leaf than wicker, but pretty all the same. Love the lanterns.
What a lovely, cozy room.
There is something very comforting about wicker.
Love the stone fireplace.
Beautiful vaulted ceiling and lantern!
This home is in Simonstown, a naval base just outside Cape Town - hence the naval references.
Love those chairs!
Love this table!
While I am content in bed with my puppy and my laptop - I would be even more content breakfasting here with my husband and a view of the Eiffel tower! (Just in case my husband is reading this.)
Till next time
