RED, WHITE & BLUE: INSPIRATION TABLEWARE FOR JULY 4

Happy Friday!  With Independence Day a week away, now is the perfect time to start thinking about creating your own tablescape look.  Whether you're celebrating indoors or out, get those creative juices flowing and enjoy!

The inspiration board I created below is a simple look, using some items I already own (like the natural water hyacinth placemats from IKEA and the natural raffia tray from West Elm).  I love the simple, red trimmed, hand glazed plates from Canvas Home (also available in blue).  You can use these plates again for Valentine's Day or Christmas.  Add a pretty tablecloth or runner, paired with napkins in red, white or blue.  Finish the look by adding some simple accessories like a hurricane lantern or vase.

If you don't have time or money to shop, you can still stick with the color scheme: a white bowl filled with blueberries and strawberries or display a tart on a white cake stand. Don't forget a lovely bouquet of flowers to complete the look.
