Pottery Barn Party Planner Farmhouse Brunch
hi I'm style expert nathan turner
and today i'm doing a farmhouse brunch for pottery barn
for me a farmhouse brunch
should feel rustic
and not precious at all the whole point is to get together and have a good time
and not spend a lot of money and in fact today's meny costs less than fifty dollars
what I love about a farmhouse brunch is that
it's about using what's available to you and today I use the heirloom tomatoes
herbs from the garden but you can go to your local farmer's market and find out what's
fresh and in season right now
and I love it it's just a really natural way to entertain
I kind of infused my whole fresh from the garden idea onto a little bit of everything
on the table i have great mason jar hanging lanterns
I put a little rubber band everyone has them in their drawer
and put on each one a different fresh herb
wrapped around the napkin
I just took a cabbage leaf again infusing everything with that natural feel
and it's the large leaves on the outside of a cabbage so I'm not even wasting anything really
which is great
so the butcher paper was a really inexpensive
way to incorporate my my feel because it's definitely kind of
rustic and rural feeling then I just kind of doodled around each plate and cup to
make a silhouette for
where each one goes
and left the pencil there so that some people can
play around and scribble and draw on it as well which is fun
just because something is low cost doesn't mean it doesn't have to be lifestyle
all the galvanize products like the three-tiered stand with the tomatoes stacked in it and the buckets
as well I did individual cutlery holders and it looked
very ranchy and farmish and fun and I chose to use the Emma plate because I love its
simplicity but it has the details so it's not
boring
and it looked great up against the butcher paper it just kind of
held its own but I like this plate because you can just dress it up or dress it down and it kind
of goes with everything
I think the pottery barn product
is great for entertaining because it has such a broad spectrum when you have
the basics in in your
cupboard you can kind of go anywhere with them
what I really liked about this brunch is that it brings it back to
what entertaining's really about and it's just really about
the gathering of friends and family and that's what this does simple menu
a pretty but easy table to do
that anchors you to the table where you can really just sit back relax and have a great afternoon
