Memorial Day Tablescape

I found these star salad plates at HG and knew they would make a great tablescape for Memorial Day, Flag Day and 4th of July.


The silverware is from Ross.


The bowls were found at Ross and HG. The foil centerpiece is from the Party Supply Store.


I added my hubby's military picture at the head of his place setting.

Some sparkle at the other place settings.





The napkin and napkin rings are from HG.





I'm joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday.

Thanks for stopping. I hope you enjoy a fun safe holiday weekend!

I love the beautiful elements you have for creating such a gorgeous "patriotic table"! I specially like the salad star plates and a flag basket...well, I love it all! I'm also at TT at BNOTP.

I love your tablesetting! And what a good idea to put your husband's military picture at his place! Somehow I think your food to fill these plates on Memorial Day is going to be wonderful too!

Hope you don't mind that I sat on your pretty porch and watched the fireworks before scrolling down to read the post :).
What a fabulous tablescape for Memorial Day. I love all of your treasures from HG and Ross. What would we do without those great places to shop? The silverware is great and I like the touch of putting your hubby's picture at his place.
Wishing you a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.

You do such beautiful things with your tables - you must have a huge amount of storage space! I love the sparklers going off!

Hi Rose,
Stopping by to say hello. Hope you and yours are doing well and enjoying the Summer almost(here).
Perhaps you are on vacation.

You must be very busy - hope you're having fun! These beautiful table settings will be usable again in a few days! Hard to believe summer will be on the downward slide - it always happens to me after the 4th.
