Vintage is Contemporary

I am a big fan of the modern decor infused with a few vintage pieces. Vintage pieces gives the room a whole new layer of depth and screams that this person knows their own style. The way clean modern lines pair with a rustic old chair creates an interesting contrast that is certain to be eye-catching. Even the purveyor of all things modern West Elm is now featuring rustic and vintage pieces with their merchandise.

Celebrating Summer with Strawberry Margaritas in Midcentury Glassware


What better way to kick off our blog on the first weekend of the summer season but with an homage to summer drinks?  My lovely cousin Jeremy who is an amazing wedding planner in Fort Wayne, IN whipped up these delightful little strawberry margaritas over the weekend.  Trust me, they taste as good as they look!  Wouldn't a tray full of these would be prefect for an outdoor cocktail party on a hot summer evening??  Yum.


Here is the yummy recipe:

Ingredients:
6 ounces tequila
2 ounces triple sec
8 ounces sliced strawberries in syrup
4 ounces of frozen limeade concentrate

Directions:
Fill a blender with ice and crush.  Add tequila and triple sec.  Next add the strawberries and limeaid.  Blend for 30 seconds or until smooth.  Serve with pretty drinkware and rims dipped in sugar.
