Arabian Nights {Table Decor Inspiration}

Since today is Decor Tuesday, I thought I would sneak in this pretty little shoot by De Liefde. Cornelia from De Liefde tells us more about the inspiration behind the shoot.

At the moment we are very inspired by the seventies comeback- I always thought my mother’s clothes and my school friends’ kitchens in orange and brown were so ugly! Well, never say never…..

Our ideas came from the rebirth of this trend: The girls with the turbans in old Vogue Helmut Newton’s shoots and the Middle Eastern, Moroccan and Indian promise of adventure…

Judy and Cornelia reckon that this Arabian look is perfect for a birthday bash for a child of the seventies. The beautiful pictures were taken by Maree Louw from Natural Light photography.

I love anything to do with food {especially eating}, collecting pretty things, nesting, afternoon naps, reading and pinning. I am terrible at any kind of needle work, and I secretly envy those who can knit, sew and crochet. Freshly picked jasmin makes me happy. If I could choose my last meal on earth it, would be warm ciabatta bread with lashings of butter.
