I recently filled out a questionnaire for a new partnership (more details at the end of the month) and one of the questions was about my favorite restaurant. My favorite restaurant has to be Fig & Olive which uses the countryside of France as it’s inspiration for food and restaurant decor. Delicious, right?
Fig & Olive:

Now this doesn’t mean you have to go all girly and dress your room in ruffles and pink. What it means is that you should pay attention to what you are putting in the space and make sure amongst the hard lines that many furniture pieces contain you get a dose of girly in the room. This can simply be done by using a feminine goblet like the ones pictured above that flare just a slight bit or if you want to go bolder use a large furniture piece with a feminine leg like the dining room table.
Tip 3: Add a small dose of industrial or re-purposed items to the space.
If you add more than one or two pieces than you are going to lean towards a look that scream industrial chic and that is not the look we are going for. Add a piece or two that looks like it came out of an old French barn/vineyard and was then re-purposed is the exact look we are going for. A statement wire basket chandelier or small basket used a water carafe are exactly what we need to continue to set the scene.
Tip 4: Food!
No need to be a top chef contender in order to entertain your guests in a French Provence style. The key to mostly anyone’s heart is food and sometimes the basics are the best thing you can serve. Start out with some wine, add some cheeses placed on a chalkboard slab along with bread, bread and some more bread and you’ll have some happy guests.
All of these items and much more are part of the Entertaining en Provence sale currently running on One Kings Lane. All of One Kings Lane sales run for 72 hours, but if you use the links provided in this post the sale will be available for 27 days! Don’t take too long to hit the trigger on an item though, because tend to sell out quickly on One Kings Lane.
Please remember that One Kings Lane is invitation only. If you need an invitation head over to sign up and start shopping.
The restaurant looks amazing. One of the things that gets me to try a restaurant is the ambience. there’s nothing quite like eating delicious food in a beautiful setting and Fig and Olive seems like a restaurant i’d enjoy dining in very much. Those are nice items on sale, I hope the price range is similar to the prices here.

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
