The Summer Table

Even though it's mid-August, there's still time to enjoy outdoor summer meals. Whether you're planning a simple meal or special event, here's some inspiration for creating beautiful summery tablescapes...


A lacy table covering and scalloped-edged runners used as place mats; potted flowers, candles, and soft pillows complete the airy, natural setting. From A Simple Life.


Here's a more simplified setting that still has lots of charm–a rustic wooden table adorned with greenery and a sprinkling of small votive candles. From Wedding Wire.


A Shabby Chic-style setting in a summer field, with colorful flowers and bright pink napkins and chair coverings, looks so inviting! From Style Me Pretty.


A refined, vintage look with quaint oil lamps, a basket of hydrangeas, and an antique table, chairs, and bench...a beautiful setting for any cottage garden! From Intimate Weddings.


Maybe you just need a simple setting for two–this is on the beach, which is wonderful, but the same set up would look lovely on a patio or in a garden area, too. From Aqua Beach.

Have you created any special table settings for summer meals this year?
