Tablescapes, Keeping Cool with Watermelon

 

Let’s cool off with some watermelon today

 

 

 

 

With higher temperatures on the way

 

 

 

 

Watermelon is a refreshing treat on a hot summer day!

 

 

 

 

I set a watermelon table for 2

 

 

 

 

It’s full of watermelon slices and has a great view

 

 

 

 

The tablecloth is folded to look like a watermelon slice

 

 

 

 

With all things watermelon set to entice

 

 

 

 

A simple centerpiece of watermelon colors and things

with a “Slice of Life” coaster for even more watermelon zing

 

 

 

The place settings have watermelon chargers, bowls and plates

 

 

 

 

With a watermelon apron, the final touch to this tablescape!

 

 

 

 

What’s on the menu today do you think?

 

Spinach & Watermelon Summer Salad

 

And for dessert, Watermelon Cupcakes, more things pink!

 

Watermelon Mini Cupcakes

 

Watermelon not only tastes great, it’s fun and easy to draw and paint!

    Jenna, your watermelon table is the perfect cheerful display for a Summer’s day! It just looks so bright and happy and makes me smile. You also have a gorgeous water view to enjoy. I would so enjoy visiting with you at this lovely table!

  2. What a cheerful, happy table! I love it! Your art makes everything happy, too. I have those watermelon bowls but what really sets them off is the whole deal. Summer — it’s right here on your blog!

  3. Jenna, what a delightful post this morning. I agree with Shannon, it makes me smile. Your table is fun and festive and celebrates the sweetness of the watermelon. Now I am craving a slice of its goodness. Summer, beach, and watermelon seems to go together. Have a Happy Wednesday! 🍉🍉🍉

    Loving all of your watermelon! Such sweetness Jenna. I have been hankering for a good sweet watermelon and bought one and it wasn’t sweet at all. Hoping to get a good one before summer is out. Love your table. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    Jenna, your darling watermelon items are refreshing just to see. I like to eat watermelon all summer long! We try to keep it cut in bite size pieces in the fridge to have a handy snack.

  6. I love watermelon, and with that view, it would be fantastic-enjoy:@)

    How smart to even arrange the tablecloth to look like a slice of watermelon! The tablescape is darling. Am going to read how you did the watermelon chargers and I bet they go on my list along with your awesome beach forks! Lol. If I ever get all my picket fences painted, (they enclose our entire backyard to keep our dog in), I just might have time for a fun project! Lol and I agree with you if the watermelon is tasteless, it’s a huge disappointment. LOVE your view! 🌞🌊

    Adorable and so cheery Jenna! I love the tablecloth folded like a watermelon slice! Looking forward enjoying some watermelon over the 4th! 🍉🇺🇸

    Happy Day to you!

    Cute, cute, cute! Love how you casually placed a round cloth on the edge for the setting for two!

  11. Jenna, love your refreshing watermelon table. So many cute accessories. You always set such a cheerful happy table. I know you are enjoying your beach home. Happy summer.
