It is definitely Summer Time here in the Midwest, the mercury is certainly on the rise! Along with the heat comes fantastic colors that seem right at home only during the Summer months. Really, some of my all time favorites! The greens and blues. Oranges and yellows. Love them! This tablecloth encompasses all the wonderful colors and looks great with my centerpiece of fresh faux fruits. I recently found this open weave basket at the thrift store, I'll be showing you how I updated it in a near future post. I'll give you a hint: spray paint.
I found the most fantastic glasses at the Dollar Tree and the whole family loves them! They are great for lemonade and cherry slushes, they are a perfect size! I love the retro-ish fruit motif!
Place setting: Sea grass chargers (Kolh's), white Claremont dinner plate (Big Lots), yellow swirl salad plates (thrifted), Red handled flatware (Target, I really heart these) table cloth and matching napkins (Kolh's) and fun bamboo napkin rings (Ummm...I forgot).
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you are enjoying the Summer!

ReplyDeleteOh, I love this table! Those darling retro-ish glasses are wonderful -- just perfect with the dishes you've layered and the striped linens. Gorgeous photographs, too!

ReplyDeleteLooks very fun and festive. I'm a sucker for pretty colors.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful setting, Michelle! I love your dollar store glasses, too, and the green you used on that basket. I need to get some spray paint, so I think I may expand beyond the Heirloom White and black I already have on the list.

ReplyDeleteThe summery feel to this is wonderful! Your mosaic of the 4 photos together just makes me smile. It would be wonderful framed in a kitchen.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors, Michelle! You have a way of staging your tables with faux objects that creates a better-than-real effect. If you ever change careers, you could surely find work as a design magazine/catalog photographer!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
