Happy Tuesday Friends! Welcome to the Summer Tablescape Hop hosted by Rita at Panoply! I've styled my jadeite with fresh flowers, herbs, and lemons to create a sunny alfresco setting you can adapt for any summer table. If you love pairing natural decor with vintage dishes, join me for a summer garden tea for two...
Did you hop over after visiting sweet Sarah at Hyacinths for the Soul? I always love seeing her charming photographs. I'm so glad you're here! These cheerful lemon chargers and matching dish towel that I scored on sale at Hobby Lobby served as the inspiration for my little garden tea party.
You may remember the thrift store upcycle I'm using as a centerpiece.
I paired it with my yellow teapot and used the dish towel as a small runner.
Now for the fresh lemons--I shared these fragrant citrus herb mini bouquets as spring decor, but they are perfect for summer celebrations and hostess gifts! In fact, if you were here, I'd send you home with your own lemony bouquet!
I've seen several varieties of lovely lemon dishes, but I'm sure it won't come as a surprise that I went with my vintage jadeite!
I used my copper flatware and if you look closely, you'll notice my favorite lemon ginger tea.
Now all we need is dessert! Wouldn't Rita's individual honey lemon pound cakes be perfect, or how about some lavender chocolate brownies? Perhaps you prefer something different--what treat would you bring to my lemon tea party?
Next up is Carol at Bluesky at Home--I know you'll love her pretty blue and white table setting! Then be sure to visit the rest of these lovely tablescapes below!

Fresh and summery on your outdoor table, the jadite is lovely.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely Cecilia, lemons just sing summer and I love the flower filled lemons on your pretty Jadite plates...summer in the garden, I can almost hear the bees buzzing!

Cecilia, I love lemons and this is lovely. Your Jadeite is so pretty with the lemons. Great idea tucking in flowers in individual lemons. A lovely centerpiece. A perfect way to celebrate summer. Always a pleasure.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the lemon decor...it's so in right now, and I like it because yellow is the most cheerful color. Pretty table! I'm linking from Linda's blog.

ReplyDeleteCecilia, I knew your table would be special when I read vintage Jadeite. I also love anything lemon!!! Your plates and linens look citrus fresh and perfect for a summer table. Darling idea to use the lemon posy as a party favor. I'm going to remember that!

Natural décor with vintage dishes - yes please! Really cute tablescape Cecilia, and what a great find with the lemon dishes at Hobby Lobby. I gravitate to any kind of lemon motif so love these dishes. You've combined the jadeite dishes and and new plates beautifully.
ReplyDeleteHappy summer,
RR
What adorable little lemon bouquets! I will definitely be borrowing that idea! I love the jadite layered on the lemon plates. And, lemon ginger tea is my favorite right now! I would love to take a seat at your sunny summer table!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty table with you vintage Jadeite dishes and the sweet lemon bouquets. I love the idea of using fresh fruits for vases, and you did such a lovely job with these! The chargers fro Hobby Lobby were a great find, too!
ReplyDeleteCecilia, I love your pairing of Jadeite and lemons and your pretty lemon chargers and towel you found at Hobby Lobby! I remember your sweet lemon bouquets as takeaways, so pretty! You can’t beat a table in the garden for summer. So happy to have a virtual seat at your table and blog hop with you once again. Happy Summer ♥
ReplyDeleteCecelia, your table is darling, it looks like the perfect spot to enjoy a cup of lemon tea on a summer day! I love your Jadite and lemon combination! It all has a bit of a retro theme, Your little lemon bouquets are just the thing to complement your pretty placesettings. Have a wonderful summer☀️
ReplyDeleteCecilia, all I need to bring to your charming tableside is my lemon water, which is a year round constant for me. What a delight that HL had the lemon chargers and dish towel. I so love the lemon dishes and textiles that have been available in the past several years. The lemon design pairs perfectly with the jadeite, something you & I both have in common love. I tell you what - you bring the lavender brownies, and I'll bring the honey lemon cakelets, and we'll swap! What a nice time we'd have in your restored garden space. Thank you for sharing your sunshiny styling at the table!
ReplyDeleteCecilia, Loved the citrus mini bouquets and, of course, the jadeite. Inviting table setting for friends to sit and share stories.

Cecilia, Your garden tea is delightful. I adorn your Jadeite dishes and lemon theme.
ReplyDeleteI would love a cup of lemon tea and a visit in your garden.
Lovely to blog hop with you again.
Cecilia, the pairing of lemons and Jadeite is perfect to welcome summer. A table with a lemon theme always looks so fresh, and I love any dessert that contains lemon. The mini bouquets are a lovely takeaway gift. It is always a pleasure to blog hop with you!
ReplyDeleteI adore these lemon decorations. I am enjoying all of these tables!!!
ReplyDeleteHoney lemon pound cake sounds divine! I almost bought lemon ginger tea at the grocery store today:) I'm a huge lemon fan so I love this table! And I'd certainly love one of those lemony "bouquets." xo Kathleen
ReplyDeleteCecilia, the new lemon plates go perfectly with your jadeite plates. The little lemons on the plates are so cute as is the lemon centerpiece. That yellow pitcher is lovely. Your setting looks so cool in this Texas heat wave.
ReplyDeleteCecilia, there is something to be said about the combination of lemons and jadeite.....a perfect match. I can't imagine one without the other. So summery and soothing and perfect for indoor or out. It always reminds me of summer luncheons with the neighbors. Everyone enjoys these summer time meals. Your tranquil and cheerful table leaves a lasting memory. Have a wonderful summer.
ReplyDeleteCecilia, I really like how you created such a welcoming summer table mixed new with vintage. And, in such a pretty setting too! The lemons are such a classic and worthwhile addition to your tableware collection.
ReplyDeleteCecilia, I always swoon when I see your vintage jadeite on your table settings! It really compliments your Hobby Lobby lemon plates. I love your DIY centerpiece box, too. Your mini lemon bouquets make sweet favors for your guests. I would bring lemon squares to the party :) It was fun hopping with you!
