Hello, happy Sunday and a happy first day of summer as well. And speaking of happy’s, a very Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! Wishing a very special Father’s Day to my own dad and my husband, both exemplary ideals of what and who a father should be. I am doubly blessed and not a day goes by that I don’t realize that.
Parenthood is not always easy, full of unbelievably high high’s tempered with plenty of hiccups of variable degrees along the way. So hats off to anyone who parents a child (old or young) and knows of the trials and tribulations. Everyone deserves a special day to be recognized and I am happy to celebrate all the strong father figures in my own life today!
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. Summer is flying by and before you know it, it will be July 4th. Here in Palmetto Bluff, the decorations are already up and there is a celebratory energy in the air. Onward to this Sunday’s post….

1 PALMETTO BLUFF HIGHLIGHTS Was able to escape to PB for a few much needed “down time days” and though it’s never long enough, I was grateful for it to happen at all:) The beauty is just hard to put into words, and of course the most beautiful part is always Mr. Duke! When I say it’s like escaping to a little sliver of heaven, I am not exaggerating. Just ask anyone who has been.
2 STUNNING NEW WALLPAPER ON MY RADAR I love wallpaper and all the possibilities it holds to really change a space. Few things can transform a room like wallpaper magically can! I think this new addition from Quadrilles beautiful line of papers is stunning, especially loving that soft blue. I could see this in a powder room or a bedroom wall. Beautiful!

3 INSTAGRAMS OF INTEREST This round up subconsciously represents my love of beautiful homes, of all varieties. So many pretties to share-
4 A FABULOUS AND EASY COCKTAIL This is new and so so good. Very easy to make, I like it because its not too sweet. I tend to favor a citrus flavored cocktail that is not sugary sweet. Found over at Straight to the Hips Baby. I need to add edible flowers next time:) A great party drink!
This is for one cocktail so increase measurements accordingly
2 ounces freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice
1 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 ounces of Hendrick’s Midsummer Solstice Gin
1.5 ounces simple syrup, homemade or store-bought (used less than this)
1 generous handful fresh green basil
ice
Garnish of pink grapefruit rounds, grapefruit zest, and edible flowers.
5 GORGEOUS CUSTOMER PHOTOS I am always so floored and impressed seeing how you use our products in your home. So much creativity and inspiration! Here is our latest batch of customer photos….
6 A SIMPLE AND ELEGANT DESSERT HACK This is so easy and looks quite elegant, I must say. Take your favorite simple store bought cake, grab a 3-4″ glass, a carton of berries and powdered sugar. That is all you need to take a mundane ordinary boxed cake to a beautiful individual mini cakes that look like you slaved over them:)
7 SUNDAY’S SURVEY An easy poll that requires just a few seconds, no brainstorming today! Always curious to see which style of decorating you most relate to/what style appeals. I am a hybrid of two of these so you get to choose two. This should be interesting, I find myself evolving but staying true to what I love.

Tina, I love the simple, yet elegant looking dessert. And looking at Palmetto Bluff pictures feels like a mini vacation. Thank you for showing my Summer Breakfast photo (the one with the grapefruit) on today’s post. What a surprise to see it on Seven on Sunday!
