Look no further, because a genuine, beautiful and authentic experience DOESN’T need to cost an arm. Why? Because the majority of materials and pieces you use on your table should come from the environment.<\/p>\n

For this setting, I used an old OLD wool classing table. It just so happened, Wilga Valley, once ran sheep and therefore had a woodshed on the property. I took the table and placed next to the stockyards, creating a gorgeous backdrop once the sun set behind the mountains. Don’t have stockyards or a classing table? That’s ok, use any old (literally) table you like, it’ll simply add the the authenticity of the setting.<\/p>\n

When designing a table setting, I always start with the table runner or cloth. Here, I put two canvas table runners on the table, one in off white and the other a grey. I then place the biggest piece in the middle. In this case, I used a tin bucket and simply filled it with eucalyptus leaves. From here, I like to put two slightly smaller tan the middle piece, pieces (that was a mouthful) at the end of the table, just to define the length of it. I used two candelabras in silver… gorgeous! AND, they add a romantic ambience after dark. I created two amazing grazing platters and placed them either side of the centrepiece then filled in the gaps with a mixture of smaller pieces such as pine cones, smaller candles and foliage. Whala… easy peasy stunning decorating!!<\/p>\n

HINT: If you don’t want to decorate in a country style theme, use ANY foliage around you… hydrangeas from your garden, wheat, cotton, ANYTHING!! Just go for a walk and look outside your back (or front!) door.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”48px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”grid” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4\/12″][vc_single_image image=”734″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”cu-blog-single-fixed-size-image-vertical”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4\/12″][vc_empty_space height=”18px” el_class=”cu-mobile-show”][vc_single_image image=”730″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”cu-blog-single-fixed-size-image-vertical”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”18px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”grid” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”8\/12″][vc_single_image image=”732″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”cu-blog-single-fixed-size-image-horizontal”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”48px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”8\/12″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”55px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”8\/12″]
