Garden designer Butter Wakefield is known for her layered and effortless gardening style, and her approach to hosting and tablescaping is no different. Color, pattern, and texture all come together – much like in her outdoor projects – to create an eclectic look that isn’t overly done or fussy, but instead blends maximalism with a considered touch.
‘I come from a long line of good gardeners,’ explains Butter in our most recent episode of How I Host. ‘My mother’s a really good gardener – she was the president of our local garden club in Maryland – and my grandparents were also very good gardeners. So I feel like gardening is in the blood. And my mother’s an incredibly good host and a great cook, so we like to do this kind of thing – garden and entertain. It’s a lovely way to live, really.’
