Hello, dear friends!
How is your summer going? It has been a beautiful summer so far, and I have been enjoying the lovely warm days. I can't believe it is August already, and it's almost back to school time. Just got back from our vacation in Cape Cod, and it seems like summer has gone by so quickly!
Today, I thought I will share with you some pictures of a summer tablescape :)
Dining alfresco under the apple trees is a wonderful way to enjoy the balmy days of summer:
A pot of red impatiens sits inside a white lantern and is hung from the branches with a wired burlap ribbon:
Elements of a summer tablescape:
Flavored water in blue mason jars to quench your thirst on a hot summer day:
Ice cubes made with strawberries and blueberries or any other fruit of your choice not only add flavor to the water, but look so colorful as well:
The place setting:
Elements of a casual place setting:
Two layers of dinner napkins in red and white:
I found these adorable berry napkin rings in an outlet store called Anne and Hope in Providence, Rhode Island. Don't they look so pretty with the red napkins?
A closer look of the place setting:
I love the nautical look of these adorable plates.
A rim shot of the plates:
A red soup bowl sits on top of the white salad plate:
Love the black coiled tip fork from Pier 1:
As centerpiece I inserted a pot of pretty blue lobelia inside a Coca Cola crate:
I love lobelia with its delicate and dainty blooms
Cute little blue ceramic birds added as accents
A galvanized bucket full of summer blossoms sits on a bench
Dining alfresco is another wonderful way to enjoy the beautiful days of summer:
Before I sign off today, I will leave you with a few pictures from our vacation at Cape Cod:
The pristine beaches of Cape Cod:
The Pilgrim Monument erected to commemorate the Pilgrims' first landing in America on the Mayflower at Provincetown, Cape Cod:
So, how are you enjoying your summer?
Thanks for stopping by! It is always a pleasure to have you visit me.
Enjoy your weekend!
~Hugs, Poppy~

A navy blue and white striped dinner plate is topped with a smaller Crate and Barrel white salad plate. The blue and white striped dinner plate is from their Country Living Collection:
