I hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July, celebrating with family and friends..
July is speeding along..Don't forget Suzy's Ice Cream Social this weekend, and Susan's Garden Party the next..Details in the side bar...
I am joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for her Tablescape Thursday. If you have never been to her blog, you are in for a treat! Please stop in and see all the other entries...
Tonight I used some of the treasures that I found at Christmas Tree Shop...These covered individual casseroles. I went back to get more, and they were GONE!
Perfect for a pot pie, ziti, mac and cheese, whatever you can bake in the oven!
I used my ocean blue beaded plates from Pottery Barn...
Striped tablecloth, napkins..star fish napkin rings from WmSonoma,
Turquoise stems, clear water, indiv butter dishes..
White charger...Dansk flatware..
White hydrangea from my garden, little shell shaped votives...
The casseroles were $3.99 at Cmas Tree Shops, and I found indiv butter dishes there for 1.50! WmSonoma has the exact same thing for 5..I paid 2.50 on sale there, but bought some to give away for 1.50....
Dinner?
Salad with chicken , feta, red onion, bacon raspberry vinegar dressing and fresh pineapple...
Thanks for visiting!
Beautiful table, Kathleen!! Salad looks delicious!

Another beautiful tablescape with a beach theme. Viewing all of these is making me want to head to the coast. DD is on a cruise at the moment and I am so wanting to head south to wade in the water.
