Summer tablescapes

www.stylemepretty.com
I'm traveling and I didn't get a table set up before I left. I'm sad about that, but that gives me the opportunity to go "gathering" - you know all around cyber space. Have you done that before?


I've posted a source under each photo. I do hope you will go visit. Should anyone have an issue with my "borrowing" their photo, please email me and I will gladly remove it and it's link.

This would just be so much fun at the beach!

Love the hint of aqua with all the white. Did you see that bench?

I think the old wagon type as a table is so much fun.

Love the weathered plank. I am so borrowing copying this.

Ah, to have furniture in shades to blend in with the surroundings sure lets the table shine.

If the backdrop weren't enticing enough, the vivid throws on the chairs certainly invite you to spend some time in this cozy spot.

Gorgeous cloth and all the limes and yellows sure draw you into this scene. Are those dandelions?

This is just lovely.

Love love love this tablecloth and the yellow plates. Oh and those chairs just set my heart aflame too.

Rustic charm in it's best simplicity.
