Welcome to TABLESCAPE THURSDAY!
This week I thought I would share some summer inspiration for outdoor tables and centerpieces. Using ordinary items in extraordinary ways is the best part of setting the table. During the warmer months of Spring and Summer, I opt for casual over formal any day but that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice on style, creativity or beauty.
I love the way the lemons are balanced on top of the candle holders in the picture below.
Simple but lovely.
A silver ice bucket becomes the perfect container to hold fresh blooms cut from the garden.
A silver teapot is the perfect accent to Mexican Heather.
A double stack takes on new meaning. A silver cake plate topped with a silver bowl makes a pretty display for silverware.
Used and repurposed, soda bottles clustered with happy Sunflower blooms make a fun and casual centerpiece.

I have to thank Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for hosting this fun little party every week! For more table top creations, please pop over to vist her.
Until I see you again,
Happy Decorating!
