Welcome Summer!
It’s time to get out all your summertime things
and set a table for all the fun summer can bring!
Celebrate & Decorate’s Chloe has gathered some fantastic inspiration for you!
Join the fun all week long as we “celebrate & decorate” tables for summer!
If it’s summer, you know where I always want to be
On the porch of the beach house near the deep blue sea
We have such fun at this table where we all love to dine
It’s a perfect table for 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 we’ve even sat nine!
The conversation often includes fish
So it’s fitting each place is set with a fish dish!
This table setting is full of coastal features
Banana leaf palms, coconuts, sea shells and all kinds of fishy creatures!
Wine glasses painted with palms, starfish, flip flops and floats
It’s quiet today but the water soon will be full of passing boats
Lots of blue hues and a little dose of green
A tropical table with a touch of serene…
Is there anything better than a beachy summer scene?

Jenna, how fun that you get to set up a beach tablescape actually at the beach! The runner is so perfect with its banana palm leaves as a base for your wonderful collection of beachy items. The fish plates are so cute as are your painted stemware and the seashell forks! Your talents are always amazing and I know your beach home provides so much joy with your family.
Just a side note, our son spent Monday and Tuesday filming a yacht at Orange Beach. He said the weather was perfect!

You have just the right amount of green to go with your blues….and where did you get those cute little flip-flops? Adorable! The hand painted stemware are so perfect for your tablescape. I love blog hopping with you as you give me inspiration beyond my capabilities. Hugs dear friend.

Jenna, I just love all the fun things sea related to set your table at the beach house. Cute theme with the table runner and sea creatures. A fish for each setting suits the occasion and I can only imagine the fish talk. I would be the same, if I had a house by the deep blue sea I’ll give one one guess where you’d find me……..
