Hi Everyone! I am so excited to be here with 29 fabulous bloggers to share with you different ways of welcoming Spring into Summer. You are going to find so much inspiration in this group, from home decor, gardening, recipes and more. I have shared the links for everyone below.
My tablescape is about celebrating summer days with fresh flowers and lemonade. I kept it light and simple, and I let the tablescape to speak for itself.
When I style my table, I like to layer and repeat the decor. I started the layering by adding circular placemats. My table is only 5 feet long, so circular placemats give it more space, then rectangle. If I were serving less people, I may use rectangle.
My next layer is a charger. I love using chargers! I went with white to keep it fresh and light. For the plates I always use a basic white plate. I like to add a pop of color by adding a salad plate with a fun design. Plus when purchasing plates, I just buy the salad plates. It adds the color and design that I am going for and it gives me more room for storage. Living in a small home, I try to do what I can to save on space.
On the centerpiece I like to go light, with a bold statement. I love a grand centerpiece, but with a small space, I need to go the less is more route. I like to using fresh flowers that are in season. I was able to pick up these gorgeous Lilacs from Trader Joe’s. I placed them in thin vases, which will make them easy to move, if I were to need more table space. Plus how pretty is the purple with the yellow?
For fun, I added this cute drink station. I added fresh lemonade with lemon slices and a few sprigs of mint. The mint really makes it taste so refreshing. I also added some sparkling lemonade and glasses. Though, let me tell you, I bought the drink dispenser from Target. It’s part of the new Hearth and Hand summer collection and it leaked all over the place, so I do not recommend it. That was not a fun mess to clean.
I hope you enjoyed my Spring to Summer Tablescape. I had so much fun putting this together and I can’t wait to see what the others do. Have the most lovely day.

This is such a beautiful tablescape! I love the linens you chose and your place settting is gorgeous too. The lemonade stand is really cute and I know those lilacs must smell amazing. Hope your summer season is a fun one, CoCo
Thank you so much CoCo, you are so sweet. I do love the lilacs, I wish they would last longer then a few days.
wow this is absolutely so pretty I just love every part of it
Thank you so much Wendy. I had fun putting this tablescape together. Have a wonderful day.
Oh Jennifer! What a pretty tablescape! The soft pastels colors are absolutely dreamy, and those lilacs are just stunning! I love the little lemonade cart you did–such a great idea. I have a little rolling cart that’s somewhat similar, and I think I might just have to make use of it in this way! Thank you so much for inspiring me! xo, Kristi
I really loved styling the cart. It was a random idea, but so fun. Once I get a new dispenser, I’ll use it that way again. Thank you so much for having me be part of the group. I’ve had so much fun!

Thank you so much! Trader Joe’s for the win. Lilacs are a Rae flower where I live and was excited to find them.
Thank you so much. I am so happy to be able to get them. They are not an easily available flower in California. 😊
Hi Jennifer – Your tablescape is lovely. I, like you use white plates and collect salad plates to change my decor. The lilacs while simple do give the table an amazing WOW factor.
Thank you so much Lynn. I’m so happy to have been able to add the lilacs. They are not an easy flower to find in California. I just wish they lasted longer.
I love this so much! I love the lemon theme (any excuse to make lemonade, right?) and the lilacs are the perfect contrasting touch!
Thank you so much Michelle. I had a centerpiece for the table and when I found the lilacs, I thought they were just perfect. Any excuse to share lilacs. 😂
