Søster'n fylte 25år på søndag, vi samlet en bitteliten del av familien og feiret med beach party inspirert grillfest :) Jeg satt oppe halve natta og laget vimpler, parasoller og flagg! Men det var verdt det!!! Bare se!!!!
My sister was 25 this sunday, we gathered a tiny bit of family and celebrated with a beach party style BBQ :) I was up all night making bunting, little flags and umbrellas! But it was worth it!!! Just look!!!

Vimplene er av papir, limt sammen på enkel tråd... valgte vanlig hvit tråd. Da den brune hemptråden ble litt for mørk for sommertemaet.
the bunting is made of paper, glued together on a simple string... chose regular white string. The darker hemp string got a bit too dark for the summer theme.

Bordkortene er helt enkle papirflagg stukket ned i sommerbær! Enkelt og effektfult!
Tablecards are as easy as can be. Paper flags stuck into a summer fruit. Simple and stunning!
Jeg ville ha morsome sommer farger. Som oste av solfylte dager og gøy! Gulgrønt, varmt gule, turkis og fruktrød!!!
Colours were kept in feel-good-warm-sunny-days style. yellow tinted greens, warm yellows, turqouise and fruity red!

Tilogmed kjøkkenet strålte som solen mens vi bakte, selv om det egentlig var ganske grått ute! :D
Even the kitchen felt like rays of sunshine while we were working, even if it was ratehr cloudy and gray outside! :)

En nærmere titt på vimplene jeg hang opp på tallerkenhylla! Instant summer!
A closer look at the bunting cheering up my platerack. Instant summer!

Salatbestikket er egentlig gammelt 50-tallet med lakkert treskaft. Jeg har pusset de og deretter malt de med butinox... i turkis selvsagt!
The salad cutlery is actually an old 50's pair with wooden handles. I have painted them turqouise!

After dinner we served cupcakes with frosting in cotton candy colours :D
