MARISA'S MAY MUST-HAVE'S FOR SPRINGTIME FROM HOME DECOR TO GARDENING

I anticipate plenty of backyard get togethers and fewer safe distance beach visits in lieu of parties in the coming months. This will be the closest thing we have to socializing and entertaining, so here are some spring must-haves to make staying put more enjoyable. From getting your garden ready to wine accessories, the list this month shares great new additions that caught my eye. Enjoy!

It’s back! The Bermuda bag returns from Mark and Graham in this great blue and white gingham. And this one has my initial, so it makes me want it even more!

If you decide to venture out to a park or grassy knoll, bring the wine and hors d’oeuvres in Anthropologie’s rattan wine basket it’s just the thing for al fresco drinks at a distance.

Corksicle stemless wine glasses are the portable drink container du jour. I see people walking down the street in New York City carrying them while on their evening stroll.

In a small blue and white floral print, Serena and Lily’s lightweight laminated birch Priano trays are a great addition to an existing collection and can be used indoors and out.

This decorative ceramic flower from Chive is so pretty and can be used as a pretty addition to a dining table or as an objet on a coffee table.

Have a graduate at home? Put a picture of them in this Williams Sonoma Home woven rattan frame. I like it for its summery feel.

Cheap n’ chic. This fluted brass planter from H&M reminds me of a Josef Hoffmann piece.

Is it peculiar to like a garden hose? This heavy duty one from Terrain can withstand a lot of use and the color is anything but basic.

Need a place to rest an iced tea while in the garden? Try a garden stool that is a bit less expected, covered with blue squiggles from Anthropologie.

Just the thing for a staycation: cute striped sun chairs! Business and Pleasure, a cool Australian brand that understands breezy beach style, has a collection of fringe detailed umbrellas that coordinate, available on Chairish.
