Tablescapes, Sea of Glass

These “place mats” are waterproof    ☔️    and won’t blow away   💨

Tiles are great for outdoor settings

 

I used square tiles {leftover from the kitchen back splash}

The centerpiece base is a square of leftover bathroom tiles, small subway glass tiles still on the backing

If you don’t have any leftover tiles, you can buy small quantities or sheets at home improvement stores

Turquoise is my very favorite color, and I love Somethin’ fishy, so it was easy to find things around the house to use on this table

Pebble rim chargers are topped with a blue melamine rope edged plate, then a ruffled ceramic fish plate

a little sea glass bling

Weathered wooden buoys hold the napkins in place

 

Sea blues and greens are always so serene…

Tiles can be used to make an impromptu serving platter, like the multicolored one below used for a “cupcake dress” at a Mexican bridal shower here

Twine is wrapped around a bottle with shells tied and glued on the knotted ends
