Ah, summer lovin'!  There's nothing like it, and if you've found your true love this past summer, why not celebrate it?  As we approach the final days of August, start planning a romantic dinner for you and yours.

Set your sights on a whimsical retreat...in your own backyard!  I found this simple, yet beautiful idea on Celebrations at Home and its guaranteed to transform your backyard into a romantic getaway.

All you need is a few bamboo poles, light gauzy fabric and a couple of potted plants!  But, don't forget the mood lighting--a strand of stratigically placed twinkle lights and a few votive candles should do the trick!
