Bee-utiful Late Summer Tablescape


Thank God it's thrifty Friday, Friends! Today I'm joining the Late Summer Tablescape blog hop hosted by Chloe at Celebrate & Decorate. I'm wrapping up the summer season with a few of my favorite things: a bee-utiful table and iced coffee in the garden...

I've paired vintage Crinoline dishes and other thrifted treasures with some end of summer bargain finds like these mini buckets filled with garden honeysuckle, plus I already had the bee magnets!

I also shopped my home to create a simple centerpiece featuring a thrifted bee skep and a bee printed burlap citronella candle. If you're familiar with Vera designs, you may have noticed the mod-patterned daisy napkin. It was another thrift store find, and since I only have one, it's perfect in the center of the table.

I love iced coffee--actually I make iced lattes with almond milk--and I thought it would be fun to serve it in vintage milk glass Irish coffee mugs. As a treat, I garnished it with a quartered stroopwafel. ;)

Here's a view of my table for two--if you were here, I'd serve you this tasty treat!

My bee-themed tablescape was inspired by another recent project--my bee-utiful stenciled bistro chair upcycle.

  2. Cute theme and great DIY stenciling and upcycling of your bistro chairs. I've always wanted a bee skip but haven't run into one with a good price.
    How do you make your iced lattes? They sound nice. I will google a recipe.
    I love the cute tablecloth and your table styling.
    My favorite thing is your zinc bucket. I passed one up that I have kicked myself about.
    Nice blog hopping with you.

  9. Cecilia, your outdoor bee table is summer sweetness! So precious! I love the printed chairs and all of the details of your table. And your shiny retro-style tablecloth is so adorable and brings everything together, including your charming blue floral planters. I love the use of patterns to replicate everything bees. So charming and perfect for a summer moment.
