Fun & Festive 4th Of July Tablescape

Don’t you just love the Fourth of July?  I sure do.  From burgers on the grill, time in the sun and the fireworks show, the 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays.  We’ve got a pretty laid back day planned and will be spending the day at my brother’s. Even though we won’t be home on the 4th,  I decided some festive decor was in order at our house.  I jazzed up our dining room with a fun & festive red, white, and blue tablescape and also decorated the sideboard.

Fun & Festive 4th Of July Tablescape

Pulling this tablesacpe together was pretty easy since I already owned everything I used to dress the table.  Like most of my tablescape designs, this 4th of July table is a mix of traditional and chinoiserie elements with lots of pattern mixing going on.  The focal point of the table is the centerpiece arrangement which is a grouping of blue and white ginger jars.  Using jars with different patterns adds lots of visual interest and gives the table an eclectic feel. And for a little contrast, I flanked the jars with a pair of tortoise hurricanes.  Chinoiserie and tortoise are a match made in heaven!

The tortoise hurricanes are from Pottery Barn but are no longer available.  I did find a similar hurricane and listed the source at the bottom of the post.

The place setting I created is pretty classic.  I started with a solid red placemat and then layered a red and white buffalo check charger on top.  My vintage Blue Willow dinner plates are the finishing layer and area  great pattern contrast against the plaid.  I added the red salad plate and blue and white ceramic coasters to fill in around each pacesetting.  Both of these items were flea market finds. To add more blue and white to the table, I placed a blue and white table runner down the center of the table and used blue and white striped paper napkins next to each place setting.

I hung a grouping of festive paper fans over the sideboard mirror and flanked my favorite monkey dish with milk glasses vases filled with red roses. If you ever come across these paper fans pick them up because they are an easy way to add a dramatic punch to party decor.
