Now that the kids are settled back into school, it's time to enjoy it just a bit. I hosted a little back-to-school coffee yesterday for some mom friends. Nothing fancy, just a casual morning with snacks and coffee and good girly conversation.
I set up a buffet table in my kitchen with a few simple decorations.
I covered the table with old dictionary pages, set out some globes and pencils ...
... and hung a simple book page garland on the wall behind the table.
Coffee and tea were served in white, mismatched cups ...
... and I left a dry erase marker on the table so the guests could mark their names on their mugs.
I set creamer bottles in a vintage copper mold filled with ice and placed a mason jar in the middle to hold stirring spoons.
The menu was simple: a variety of mini muffins {perched on hardcover books} ...
... apples and a caramelized dip, and a baked cream cheese danish.
I really love hosting casual gatherings with friends.
Are you celebrating the start of school?
If you like what you see, would you consider following me?
