More Blue and White Mother's Day Gifts

Kate Spade Make It Pop Prep Bowls

 

I have more Mother's Day gifts I had to share. These ombré prep bowls are so chic for the blue and white kitchen. Prepare pancake batter, a delicious sauce or side dish in these Kate Spade New York Prep Bowls, styled in shades of blue.

Blue & White Mother's Day Gifts

Blue and White Measuring Cups

I have found the cutest collection of blue and white things for the kitchen ideal for Mother's Day gifts or for your own blue and white kitchen. I have lots of blue and white in my kitchen on display including my Staub and Le Creuset cookware and love it.

The Perfect Summer Blanket

ChappyWrap

If you are looking for the perfect warm weather blanket or the best Mother's Day gift, my choice would be a ChappyWrap blanket. The ideal blanket, there is only one problem with them. Once you get one, everyone in your household will want one and you will never want to sleep with another blanket. They are addictive. 

ChappyWraps are plush, soft, warm, yet not heavy. They wear like iron and machine wash and dry. I use mine not only on my beds, but for the beach, tailgating, picnicking, the car, pets, and the lanai. Their collection now includes lots of botanical prints and pastels that I love.

ChappyWrap

Chic Olive Oil

Frantoio Muraglia Extra Virgin Olive Oil in Striped Bottle

 

I think this is the prettiest bottle of olive oil ever. The ultimate kitchen-to-table olive oil, this award-winning Italian oil works equally well for cooking and finishing. To preserve its rich flavor and aroma and protect it from sunlight, the extra-virgin olive oil is bottled in a hand-painted ceramic container that can be enjoyed as a vase or serving vessel after the oil is finished. 

Perfect Mother's Day Gift for the Chinoiserie Lover

Jasmine and Yuzu Porcelain Diffuser

I have found a delightful gift for Mother's Day. Refresh any room with the sophisticated floral and citrus notes of jasmine and yuzu. Simply place the porous porcelain floral sprigs in the bottle of oil to disperse the light, delicate fragrance. Both the visual and the scent are very Chinoiserie Chic. 

Setting the Spring Table - Famille Rose

Famille Rose Collection

 

The term "famille rose" (meaning of the “pink family”) refers to Chinese porcelain glazed with enamels in a predominantly pink, white, yellow, and green color palette. Perhaps you have some antique or vintage pieces in this classic chinoiserie style.

Reflections

My lanai last evening

This is my first Mother's Day in 35 years that I have lived away from my daughter, and Kate and her boyfriend were supposed to be arriving this evening. With the pandemic, the trip was of course canceled. Disappointing, but we all have to keep in mind how fortunate we are compared to so many others right now. This was my view last evening having a glass of wine in my lanai. Paradise but in troubled times. I hope everyone has a lovely Mother's Day weekend in trying times. Stay safe.

Tomorrow I am posting on my closet that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I was staging. I was delayed posting because I ran out of black velvet hangers from Costco and had to wait for another Costco run to reload. And Monday I have the best Chinoiserie Gone Wrong to date. You will not believe it.

A sneak peek -

The pair of wooden hangers are from years ago from the Boca Raton Hotel and Beach Club. My late husband and I were both lawyers at the Commodity Futures Trading Association and would attend the Futures Industry Association Conference that was always held there. I loved staying there every year.
