More than a dozen large, blue, spherical Chinese lanterns hang from a pergola above an outdoor party scene from the pages of Entertaining at Home by Ronda Carman. The scene also features a table with a white tablecloth and an arrangement of white hydrangeas. There are two rattan armchairs at the table. A bench sits to one side, and a stocked bar cart to the other. The background is lush with a thick wall of greenery.
