Tablescapes, Pink & Yellow Roses

When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade, right?

So when life handed me pink and yellow roses,

I made a tablescape 💐😊

HHjr is so incredibly thoughtful,

he brings me flowers all the time and came home the other day

with these gorgeous pink and yellow roses

So since these beauties arrived my way,

it was time to get out some plates and play away!

Ruffled pink placemats, yellow chargers and bright floral plates

Are ready for the tasty bites that await!

Bright dotted glasses and flower ringed napkins

And let’s add coral salad plates,

they look pretty too, as it so happens…

Let’s try it with just colored plates for another look

See the menu below to see what to cook!

Here’s what’s on the menu for a Summer Celebration

Fruit Pastries with Almond Cream

Romaine Wraps with bacon, cranberries, bleu cheese and pecans

Antipasto Skewers

Watermelon Chocolate Chip Mini Cupcakes

Celebrate these last beautiful days of Summer!

  5. Summer is my favorite season and I drag it out until the very last moment. Your painting is gorgeous and of course, the nibbles look delicious. Happy late summer days to you.

  6. Jenna, how special that HHjr brings you flowers often. The roses are beautiful and of course they demanded a beautiful tablescape. I love the ruffled placemats and the floral plates. It all combines for a summery and stunning setting. The menu looks delicious. Happy Sunday!

    • Thank you Pam, the roses came from Publix, they were BOGO {he loves a deal!} and they are gorgeous! I used Mary’s flower preserver spray on them, and they still look perfect after 5 days…do you ever use that, it is truly amazing, it doubles the life of fresh flowers 💐

    The roses remind me of my daughter’s wedding where they were such an important part of the look. They combine beautifully with your dishes.
