Happy Birthday America


Hello friends, it's time for another tablescape blog hop, this one being patriotic.
Since social distancing is in order, I have set a table on our deck off our study.
It has some nice ambiance with the plants and fountain.

Many thanks to Andrea  from Designs Morsels and Chloe from Celebrate and Decorate who are hosting this blog hop.  I hope you get inspired by these lovely tablescapes.


Star and stripes forever.
I am using this plaid red, white and blue tablecloth to start with.  Red chargers hold the blue and white dinner plates.  Patriotic salad plates and bowl sit on top. Cobalt blue goblets along with blue flatware plus the star and striped napkins and cute bicycle napkin ring.

Dollar store star  dress up the chairs for this table set for two.

For the centerpiece, I am using a wide vase.  I added a pretty Patriotic tutu around it to dress it up. Hydrangeas in red, white and blue  are added along with these darling little Patriotic hat picks.

Uncle Sam is riding his bike with the American flag and fireworks.

I made a Strawberry, Blueberry Charlotte cake.

  7. Linda you are the tablescape whisper. This is gorgeous. I hope someday you will put together a book on all your tablescapes. You my friend are the tablescape princess. If you put together a book it would be a bestseller. That TUTU is adorable. Can't believe it is almost July 4th. Summer is going quickly. Hugs.

  8. So cute Linda!! I used an Uncle Sam theme too, and I love your bicycle riding one! I also have those napkin rings from Pier 1, and I am beyond sad that they've gone out of business, they always had so many treasures! Your patio setting for 2 is so lovely, and the flag cups and plates are fabulous! AND that cake, wow, that is beautiful! I've never made a Charlotte, I must put that on my to do list! Happy 4th to you 🇺🇸

  24. The tutu dressing the vase immediately caught my eye on this adorable table. How cute! The place settings are perfect, and the pairing of the Uncle Sam and bicycle napkin rings couldn't be better. The Charlotte cake looks professionally created, Linda! I must say, I am crushing on those blue & white Ikat print cushions. Very classy touch to the whimsy on the table!

  27. Linda, what a fun Fourth of July tablescape. I love all of the details and embellishments. The vase skirt, Uncle Same on a bike, patriotic hats, flags and stars make for such a celebratory table. I love the bold plaid tablecloth and flag design napkins and dinnerware. It is so bright, cheerful and festive. I am ready to sit down at your lovely table and have a slice of the delicious dessert, Strawberry, Blueberry Charlotte cake. YUM! Have a pleasant holiday!
