a Patriotic Table Setting that Hopes to be a Tablescape

Hello friends, once again I find myself surrounded by talented tablescapers. Chloe, my bloggy friend, and blogger at Celebrate and Decorate has gathered all of us together for a Patriotic Tablescape tour (tablescape blog hop). I am so happy to be included again. True confessions- I had something completely different in mind when I originally thought of a design for this patriotic theme. But, like life, things take us on different paths. So it’s no surprise this one changed for me. I’m not 100% sure it qualifies as a tablescape. Maybe a Patriotic Table Setting that Hopes to be a Tablescape one day.

If you hopped over from Follow the Yellow Brick Home, welcome!

I try to use what I have at home for tablescaping ( again not sure this is one) and crafting too. But this time, I went through my holiday stash and realized…. I don’t really have one for patriotic themes. I am a woman bereft of Patriotic stash. Fear, not my friends, I went to the local Michaels and found a few things to add to my minimalist table setting.

Let me tell you a little secret, see the cute napkin rings? They are hair ties! Umm yes, a new uses for old things for certain.

I had hoped for large red or white plates but they were out. They had these little red ones so in the cart they went, then I found the stars and stripes plates. I paused and thought of how many rules may be broken by combining so many patterns… Pause over and into the cart, it went, along with those two cute pinwheels tucked in the carnations.

Hubby loves ice cream sundae’s, I say “Eat dessert first”, it’s one of the best parts of being a grown-up. I was really craving some of my almost sugar-free oatmeal apple bombs ( recipe is HERE) when I started putting together this tablescape (wink). So It’s a dessert table setting..see, what I did there, that’s right.

I didn’t make the bombs but the sundae sure looked yummy.

I turned the table a little catawampus so I could have the flowers and garden in the background. You can see I used the DIY 4th of July tablecloth I shared on Tuesday HERE.

As you can see, this tablescape is all about minimalism and keeping things casual, and having very few dishes to wash never hurts ( wink).

I couldn’t put ice cream in the sundae glasses, it was 88 degrees when I set this up, so it was melting very quickly. The truth is the frosting was even beginning to slide off of the cookies a bit.

Okay, it’s time to move on to the next tablescape on the list, please hop over to My Thrift Store Addiction and see her Patriotic Tablescape. I hope you’ll visit them all. Please leave comments, they are the kindest thank you for sharing gift you can give a blogger.

    Katherine, your table is so fun! Dessert first is something I always say I want. Such cute accessories. A beautiful backdrop to enjoy this theme. Sundaes sound wonderful right now, since it is so hot outside. A pleasure to join you on this Patriotic tablescape blog hop. Happy 4th.

    Katherine, for last minute shopping at Michael’s, you hit the jackpot. Love your combination of patterns ~ not too many at all ~ and all the pretty dishes. I would have a sundae too, even in the heat. The hair tie idea is great; better than rubber bands! Lovely table and happy you are hopping with us.

    Katharine, I am all for mixing patterns! Using hair ties for napkin rings is a tip I am going to borrow! Dessert first is always a fun treat, and the sundae cups are so cute! I love the little caddy holding all the toppings. What a great idea!

    Who doesn’t love a cute dessert table!! Kudos for the ice cream shot in hot weather! I did that once and and said never again, mine kept melting and looking like a puddle of yuck. If there are rules about combining patterns, I am sure I have broken all of them, they would have to lock me up and throw away the key! I like the patterned plates on your fabulous bandana table cloth!! Fun and festive!!! ❤️have a wonderful 4th!!

    Very cute and resourceful, Katherine! Love the tablecloth and the added pom pom fringe. I’ve used hair ties for napkin rings too, even keep a set I purchased in the same cupboard where I store the napkin rings now.
    Hey, dessert table is a table, of course!

    Your table is so darn cute, and who doesn’t want to just have dessert and skip the rest of the meal? Of course, despite the rest of your decor like those adorable plates, your tablecloth steals the show!! That is so darn creative and the addition of the pompom trim is the icing on the cake!! Thank you for joining us again for another hop!!

    Kathrine, Never and I do mean never apologize for a tablescape my friend. A vignette or tablescape can be whatever we want it to be. We are stylists sweet friend.
    Even though our tablescapes can sometimes be considered works of art….most of the time we are just having fun decorating and your title of “the patriotic setting that hopes to be a tablescape” is so perfect.
    Remember, in the beginning, the painter Monet’s paintings were considered formless, unfinished and ugly!
    Really? I LOVE MONET’s art….especially “Impression, Sunrise”
    AND I love your wonderful dessert bar! I will never turn down ice cream or cookies with sliding frosting from the sun. LOL
    I also like the napkin ring hair ties and bandana tablecloth.
    Such a pretty setting with your flower garden in the back ground…turning the table was genius.
    It is always a pleasure to blog hop with you. Happy 4th
    Kari

      Hello sweet Kari, we are two peas in a pod.Monet is my favorite. I have many books and a couple of replicas that I enjoy. I like most impressionist works but, Monet has always been my favorite. Thank you for your kind comments and encouragement. Hugs!

    How fun to create a dessert bar tablescape to celebrate in Red White and Blue! It would be fun to surprise my hubby with a version of this on our back porch one evening. The pom pom fringe on your DIY table cover is adorable!
