This festive season norsu has joined forces with local small business Flou. Design, to create a limited edition curation of linen napkins with placemats in delicious summery Gelati tones.
These 100% linen natural table napkins and placemats are made from pure and quality European flax.

Read below to learn some tips on how to recreate this uplifting and colourful outdoor setting in your home this Summer.

Much like the indoor table styling we showed you last month, we have continued our love for injecting a huge dose of colour. As the weather warms, it's time to shift and brighten the mood. This time we do it with hues that remind us of our favourite Gelati flavours. Think lime sorbet, pink lemonade, cool blues and rich velvety caramels.
We top it all off with the addition of our new Oak & Ave outdoor cushions which pack a serious punch. Made of durable water resistant fabrics, in patterned stripes and vibrant beachy tones.
Our new napery collaboration with Flou. Design, combined with Oak & Ave textiles, reflects our passion for coming together to celebrate the good things in life.

Layering
A fail safe tip for lifting your table setting to the next level is to layer your objects, creating differing heights. Trust the norsu team, it works a treat every time. Be creative...in our table setting we nest candles in trays and vessels, and we carefully place them on Styleware containers which can later be removed when it's time to serve. Don't forget to select candles at varied heights so your table setting doesn't sit flat. We're all about creating the celebratory feel.

Lighting
As the sun begins to set, it doesn't mean it's time to call it a day. Ensure your table is set with adequate lighting to transition the mood late into the evening. This year we've welcomed an extensive collection of portable lighting. Each rechargeable they've got your outdoor entertaining covered. 
For additional ambient lighting, add an array of norsu candles such as our latest Yod and Co Stack candles which add a playful element to the scene. Each candle is individually hand poured by skilled Fair Trade artisans. Lastly, don't let the mosquitoes ruin the vibe. We're thrilled to be a stockist of stylish outdoor candles by Grace & James and it's no surprise they're flying off the shelves.

The small but important touches
The smaller details are often the ones that make the biggest impact. Complimenting our favourite Flou. Design brass napkin rings, we added a festive place setting with dehydrated orange with fresh daisy blooms. Simply punch a small hole in the orange and feed your florals through. It's a cost effective way to add the final touch of magic to your outdoor setting.
