Beach Tablescape Summer Party Idea
Wouldn't it be a dream to live by the beach? Well I can't so I am just going to pretend I do by creating a beachy tablescape.
For my Centerpiece I chose to use my Ikea lantern filled with shells and a tall white candle surrounded by two other glass apothecary jars filled with sea shells and gold silverware.
The gorgeous satiny fabric that is flowing all down the center of the table is actually a $5.00 bolt of fabric from Wal-Mart! Yes indeedy cheap it the only way to go! It looks so romantic and kind of sexy don't you think?
My daughter Madeline took all the photos you see of my table. I love how all the gold forks just shine sitting in the tall glass apothecary jar filled with sea shells. Little Mermaid herself would love to sit down at this table.
My incredible chandelier was purchased at a consignment shop here in Salt Lake and it just adds that sparkle to the room. My hubby installed a dimmer switch so we can light it up or turn it down low for a more romantic feel.

| I actually found these clear slightly green salad bowls after we shot all the pics but I just had to show you my deal! I found these beauties at Tai Pan for only .99 each!! Are they not perfect or what?! |
These blue salad plates are from Tai Pan but they don't sell them anymore.I wish I could find dinner plates in the pattern and color! Notice the sea horse chocolates sitting in its own shell...they make such a nice gift for your guests.
More of these delectable chocolates sitting ready for me to eat! Actually I have already eaten a few ha ha!
You will notice I used silver charges, silver candle sticks, mixed with "King Triton's" gold forks, spoons and knifes but it all works beautifully. I love my white napkin rings and I wish I had more to sell but they are no longer making them :( |
Madeline came up with this idea of putting all the gold forks in the jar. I leave this on my buffet most of the time..it is so fun. By the way....those gold forks are from Big Lots..ha ha years ago!
Now If I could just have this all set up in a beach house overlooking the ocean it would be perfect wouldn't it?
Dreaming.....

Another great tablescape, and perfect for my "coastal" style. Will have to add some of your cool tablescape pics to our "dining by the sea" pinterest board!
