The Little Yellow Corner Store

Happy Fourth of July!!!

Are you ready to celebrate with a bang? What better reason to have a blast than the holiday, the arrival of summer and an out-of-town visit from family. So it is time to bring out what little decor I have and make it into a special moment. A star-themed tablescape seemed to come together after I found my star pattern firecrackers I made a number of years ago. The stars were the inspiration of a my holiday table.

I am so happy and privileged to again be a participant in this month's Summer Blog Hop hosted by Panoply. The hop begins on Tuesday, June 11, 2024 at 7 AM Eastern Time and includes a variety of tablescapes that define anything "summer". The Little Yellow Corner Store has included this patriotic Fourth of July tablescape in this hop.

At the end of this post you will find a list of participants and their links to each of their blogs. Enjoy each and every table designer and their creations. Their talents and artistic ability provides everyone with new ideas and inspiration for great summer time expressions and fun.

Plenty of stars-----in cups, plates, candleholders and napkin rings turned into votive holders.

A huge mixutre of patterns......stars, stripes and checks.

And, of course, plenty of sparkle and bling from firecracker sprays, silver chargers and silver inserts in the cobalt blue napkins.

And plenty of flags to remind us of the special day.

An appetite teaser of garlic cream cheese spread and crackers are the perfect way to stimulate the taste buds before the grill is fired up for dinner.

This mini cheese dome made of glass is even decorated for the Fourth of July with red, white and blue window cling stars.

Of course, refreshments of tart lemonade and fruit skewers can be served after dinner on the porch. Fresh, sweet strawberries, blueberries, grapes and marshmallows on a skewer offers a light dessert. The iced lemonade is a great thrist-quenching drink for adults and children alike.
