Jenni Kayne seems to effortlessly “do it all”. Some call here the modern day Martha Stewart. At age 19 she started her clothing brand and from there she's incorporated more things she loves into her lifestyle brand.
Today I’m sharing some of Jenni’s
gorgeous and earthy tablescapes. I love how she uses a foraged approach to her
table designs. She’ll gather herbs from the garden and combine them beautifully with
fresh flowers, fruits and even vegetables.
Relaxed and ethereal is how I’d describe
Jenni’s table setting style. Soft washed linens and old-fashioned blooms combine perfectly for a fresh approach to entertaining.
A gathering of herbs at each setting delights all the senses.
And I think Martha is quite a fan of
Jenni’s too!

1/2 carrot
finely diced
2 large basil

thyme
3 lb1 3/8 kg

frequently until the vegetables are tender; 10-12 minutes.
2. Stir in the tomatoes, along with ¾ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon
pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes to break down the tomatoes and meld the flavors.
3. Remove from the heat and puree the soup in a blender or food
processor, then strain through a strainer. Taste for seasoning. I added a bit
more salt.
4. Serve the soup hot or warm, with desired garnishes and a
drizzle of olive oil.

Jenni’s relaxed vibe extends to her
fashion choices and designs. Her simple shoes and sandals are quite popular here
in town.
I hope you enjoyed getting to know
Jenni’s style a little bit more. She’s given me tons of inspirational ideas for
setting my summer tables this year.
