I love to set a pretty table for a light summer meal.... I was looking through photos of past tablescapes and thought I would share a few... |
aqua and pink...perfect for summer... |
layer your placemats just for fun! |
Melamine....perfect for casual summer dining... |
Use the good china for a special Sunday dinner |
Can't take a vacation to Paris...serve a meal on some pretty Paris themed dishes... |
Summer dining at its best on all white dishes....looking out into the back yard... |
I love to use floral dishes for summer dining.... |
White roses and tea on the porch..... |
Paper plates?...sure! |
everything doesn't have to match...mix it up a bit! |
enjoy cereal and toast on pretty dishes.... |
eat outside as often as possible... |
get out your vintage tablecloths.... |
have a light lunch in the yard... |
I love the pink depression glass, I have a few pieces from my grandmother and I think they are so pretty. Lovely tables. Have a great week.

Fun post, Penny. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteEvery one so pretty, I love the vintage linens and china!
ReplyDeleteYay, someone else has as many sets of dishes as I do.
ReplyDeleteSo many tables - it' hard to pick! I think I love the 1st one and the white one best! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteI'm absolutely swooning over your first table with all of that gorgeous pink depression glass.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty tables.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Lovely post - thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteI love the pink depression glass and the French pigs! I pinned several to my Tablescape board! Thanks for sharing. Blessings, D@TheShadyPorch
ReplyDeleteI am just curious as to what do you do with all the fabric touches in your yard and garden when it rains?? How do you keep them in good condition? It would be hard to have such beautiful scenes in the south. Unexpected showers and humidity would mildew them almost instantly.
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy your garden and see lots of things I would like to do.
I absolutely cannot decide which table I like best; they are all perfect in their own way. I'll take Paris today.
ReplyDeleteI love them all! Well done! Glad I found you at Two Girls!
ReplyDeleteI love them all Penny! Your dishes (all of them) are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, inspiring post.

ReplyDeleteSuch fun to see so many tablescapes at once! I love it, especially, when that gorgeous pink depression glassware creeps in! Thanks for sharing these and giving us some ideas for our hot-weather table settings!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you store everything. I have dishes, but have had to downsize and have things in rubbermaid containers and you have so much
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely table setting!!! Your glassware is just to gorgeous.

I love all of the settings, but the pink(s) are my favorite! Jennifer
ReplyDeleteI've never seen so much pretty pink! I have a few pieces that I treasure! You should help people decorate their Bed and Breakfasts. You are so talented!

ReplyDeletePenny!! I love ALL of your tablescapes!! I think my favorite is the one with the Moss Rose dishes! I collect them too!!
ReplyDeleteI also love the black and white ones too!
I bought a small folding metal table for the patio so i hope to set up some tea scapes on it for posts. I wish I could do tablescapes on my Dining Room table but where would Joe read his newspaper if I did that??? LOL!
I did buy some purple glass plates recently too!!
Hugs,
Deb
