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.
And plenty of flags to remind us of the special day.
Marsha, you have captured the essence of "Stars and Stripes, forever!" I love your whimsical centerpiece and your cream cheese spread looks delicious. Pinned! Blessings, Cecilia @ My Thrift Store Addiction

ReplyDeleteMarsha your table is ready for 4th of July fun with all the stars and stripes and clever pieces. I love all the fireworks and you have captured the essence of a holiday with lots of good things too eat...that dip and crackers are calling my name. I like how you carried over onto your front porch which I have always been envious of...I know you have lots of wild life visiting and what a perfect place to sit back and enjoy the show and participate in the red, white and blue celebration. It is always fun blog hopping with you. Happy Summer!

ReplyDeleteMarsha, I would love to be a guest at your Fourth of July celebration! Your table celebrating our country is beautiful! I adore anything red, white, and blue. The fresh lemonade and fruit skewers sounds yummy too! Wishing you a happy Summer! Shannon@Belle Bleu Interiors
ReplyDeleteMarsha, how very cute, all your ideas here for a patriotic party! Those clings on the glass are a great idea, as are the firecrackers and fruit skewers. Using the napkin rings as votives is a smart idea too. And your porch is just as welcoming as the table. Thanks so much for bringing the patriotic ideas to the blog hop. Oh, and I like your new profile picture! Happy summer!
ReplyDeleteMarsha, I love your merry mix of stripes, and checks and stars! The red, white, and blue color palette is perfect for your upcoming celebration. The little star plates are so cute, and I love the star napkin ring turned votive holder. The fresh lemonade looks so good and so do your sweet fruit and marshmallow skewers. The garlic cream cheese spread looks delicious too. You have so many cute accents to go with your table and even the front porch is decked out for the holiday. You are ready to celebrate July 4th in consummate style. It was great hopping with you again and wishing you a very happy summer and July 4th!

ReplyDeleteWow! I am always a tad envious of the array of patriotic decorations that are available in the US! And you have definitely showcased how well one can decorate a festive patriotic table!

ReplyDeleteOh Marsha, you are a hostess after my own heart with your mix of paper plates and china and all things festive and fun!! I just LOVE IT! I love all the joy you have infused into the settings- delicious foods that look as good as I'm sure they taste!! What a treat. Your centerpiece suddenly has me itching to make my own firecrackers!!! Everything is so playful and full of feel-good fun - exactly what a 4th of July summer party should be! Thank you for giving us a seat at your table! ~ Hugs ~ Jennifer
ReplyDeleteI love your table Marsha! It's perfect for the holiday and for serving all your guests. The colors are so fun and inviting, and you've thought of all the little touches! I love the dessert skewers - I'm definitely going to borrow that idea. But my favorite is your fun festive centerpiece! I feel like I'm right in the middle of the firework action! Thanks for sharing your wonderful table!
ReplyDeleteMarsha, the mix of graphic patterns and bold colors is very festive, and announces "the party is here!" I like the way you used items in ways other than their initial purpose to add interest, like the napkin rings as votive holders. The way you've arrayed the dessert kabobs as a decorative touch is inspired. I would almost hate to retrieve one -- though of course I would! Enjoy the Fourth and your summer!
ReplyDeleteMarsha! Your table is the vision of the 4th of July! Being from Canada I sometimes am a bit envious of all the fun patriotic bits and bobs you all have! I love the faux firecrackers. So cute! The pinwheels and the fruit Kabobs are a fun element. The little star tealight holders are adorable. What a fun and festive table for summer celebrations!
