I'm a coffee lover and cannot lie! ☕🥰 So naturally, I take so much pleasure in creating a little coffee nook in the studio and changing its decor each season. Especially since we've been spending so much at home lately, a designated coffee bar or coffee station adds such a fun and cozy vibe to any room, especially during the cooler Fall season! Sometimes I like to "go all out", particularly for the Holidays, and add some sweet treats to my coffee bar like the coffee and donuts bar I styled last winter . But for now, here are some easy DIY crafts that you can replicate to decorate your coffee bar for Fall!
Scandinavian Inspired DIY Blush Tablescape and Decor for Fall
Even though the temps are still pretty hot where I live, Fall is officially here! Inspired by all the pretty autumnal colors around my garden and the local French countryside, I styled a blush tablescape that would be perfect for any celebration you may be hosting this season. Or simply to dress a pretty table for brunch! Since some of us are still homeschooling or working from home, I find that adding little touches of seasonal décor and comfort, not only serve to "dress up" the space we're living in, but also helps to cheer things up a bit!
Now that school has started, I find myself making this gluten-free banana bread in batches on the weekend, and serving it up for breakfast, snack and dessert throughout the week! This is such a quick and easy recipe to make, not to mention that it's also gluten free (my husband is gluten intolerant) and is super nutritious too! I like to serve it with fresh fruit, yogurt or cream cheese, and a drizzle of honey for a wholesome start to our day. But in all honesty, this banana bread is pretty tasty on its own, and needs nothing else. Apart from maybe a cup of coffee on the side? 😉

So let's get crafting!
I know summer is nearly over, but fear not! With this t ropical, savory rice dish you're sure to keep those summer vibes going a little while longer! 😉 Plus, it makes a great lunch or bento box addition! This tropical rice dish is something we serve quite a lot in summer, as it pairs beautifully with barbecued or grilled meats. But it's also a great dish on its own with a side salad, if you don't fancy firing up the grill!
Under The Sea DIY Birthday Party
My friend Virginie, editor of the french blog Maman DIY and of the french magazine La Tribu des Idées , created and styled this beautiful birthday party, to celebrate her son's 5th birthday party! I've had the photos in my hands for a little while ... but since it's THE summer season, there is no better time to show you her fun and creative ideas! 🐬🌊🦀🐟

Hi friends! Today I bring you another "trash to treasure" project that's perfect for summer - a DIY outdoor bar! It's basically an outdoor table that can be used for soooo many occasions! I have used this modern farmhouse-style table as a bar whenever we cook outdoors or have a BBQ. But this is such a handy little table, that you can use it to serve snacks, use it as a patio buffet table, as a desserts station or even as a potting bench! Hope you feel inspired to create one for all your summer entertaining needs! 😎

I know that iced tea is not necessarily a groundbreaking recipe to use hibiscus in, but since summer's here, I'm sharing another tasty beverage that you can whip up in no time to refresh your taste buds! This hibiscus iced tea is also super pretty, and the ideal drink to serve to the whole family at your 4th of July celebrations!
A Seaside Inspired Tablescape and 3 BBQ Recipes
Summer rhymes with BBQ and eating outdoors, so we've been cooking most of our evening meals on the BBQ this summer. It's a bliss not to have the oven on inside the house, and somehow, food just tastes so much better al-fresco, don't you think? So a few weeks ago, we decide on a baked version of the classic shrimp boil. But because it's cooked on a sheet pan on the barbecue...we called it BBQ shrimp.

These coastal or beach inspired decor pieces are perfect to decorate your home for the summer, or to style a nautical mantel, a tiered-tray or a coastal farmhouse table for any celebration or dinner party you may be hosting this season!

So I also encourage you to do the same and re-purpose old objects, decor or to use up whatever you have in your craft stash!
Hi friends, hope you're enjoying the warmer temps wherever you are! As soon as the sun hits, I find myself making refreshing fruity drinks at home, like this pretty and delicious passion fruit lemonade! This recipe is a new take on my Brazilian limeade that I shared here on the blog a while back. But this lemonade is made with lemons (not limes) and tangy, sweet passion fruit for an exotic vibe!
Lemon Themed DIY Modern Farmhouse Decor and Printables 🍋
Last year, I shared quite a few lemon theme party DIYs, crafts and recipes here on the blog , and I fell in love with the theme! Now that the warmer weather is here, I thought I'd share some easy DIY decor ideas that you can use to decorate a table, your mantel, patio or terrace for the summer.

Being at home so much these days, has allowed me to embark on a bunch of DIY and craft projects that I'd been putting off for a while, like these farmhouse risers and stands. I used these farmhouse risers mainly for home decor purposes, but wanted to share them with you guys here on the blog, because I think they'd make great table centerpieces too! Do you like these kind of home decor blog posts, or do you prefer mainly party crafts? Let me know in the comment, so I can tailor the content here to your liking 😉
A food board is one of my favorite ways to serve snacks, treats and even main course dinner, like in the case of this Taco board. This Taco board is made with delicious ground beef that only takes a few minutes to make, and would be perfect to serve if you're celebrating Cinco de Mayo today, or for any meal, really!
Classic English Trifle With Store Cupboard Ingredients and Frozen Raspberries
I love to bake and lately I've been having a lot of fun in the kitchen coming up with easy recipes that involve only a few ingredients, supplies and produce that I already have in my pantry, store-cupboard or fridge. Current times oblige, right? 😉 This is how this classic English trifle with store-cupboard ingredients and frozen raspberries was born! Initially, I planned to make the trifle with strawberries, but the stores had run out of berries 🤷♀️ so my husband suggested I use frozen raspberries instead.
