Summer Tablescapes, Part 1

Photobucket

My back patio is finally starting to come together. Or at least the fence has been painted white (you can get some glimpses below)! In honor of the new backdrop, I put together a fun tablesetting, perfect for an early-evening spring get-together...

I've been dying to use this great tablecloth from the Orla for Target line. I paired it with $1 striped dish rags from the Dollar Store (here used as napkins), simple white melamine plates, jelly jar flower vases, and an assortment of vintage glassware. Oh, and a touch of playfulness from the Jonathan Adler "Viagra" canister.

Can't wait until the rainy season ends and I can start entertaining on a regular basis. I have so many more fun tablescapes to share!

OMG, I love this! Chartreuse has been a fave color of mine lately. And I am totally going to Dollar Tree today in hopes of snagging those dish towels. Thanks for the inspiration.

Very nice. Love the Orla table cloth with the gray and white napkins. Nice touch with the Viagra vase.
