Sunflower Tablescape

Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch is one of my most favorite parties in all of blogland! Seeing so many amazing and creative tablescapes make me very happy.

Today, I'm sharing my Sunflower Tablescape.







Tablecloth & napkins from Kohls. Napkin rings, a steal, from ebay. Blue flatware by Cambridge.



Little square sunflower dish from Christmas Tree Shop.



Sunflower plates also from Christmas Tree Shop. Blue dinner plates from the grocery store, of all places!



My glass candleholders from Hobby Lobby last fall. My sister let me borrow the giant sunflowers.





I had always thought to pair sunflowers with rich, fall-like colors but I found that I really liked the summery blue with them just as much. Who knew?

I'm linking up to Tablescape Thursday.



Fourteen (14) days until we are back to school/work & I'm trying to savor every last drop of summer. I hope that you are all doing the same.

    Oh Gina,
    I love the color combo. I have always relate sunflowers with Fall so I would always think to pair them up with Autumn colors, like you said...But the blue is just beautiful. Love it. Great job. Oooh, and love, love, love your sunflower plates. Cute!

    Hugs and Kisses,
    ♥Ana
