It’s getting hot, hot, hot…

We had family over and the forecast was for temperatures in the 90’s, so this orange heavy tablescape made sense.

I was drawing inspiration from the Villeroy and Boch Bonjour Monsieur salad plates which have bright green, light blue, yellow, and two different colors of orange. So, I started with a light blue tablecloth–white seemed way too formal for such a fun/playful table setting. Then I put white mums, yellow button mums, and orange and yellow zinnias in some orange flower pots (I put mason jars in the pots to ensure that I didn’t have any water leakage. I also put out some really cute painted orange and yellow candle holders that I found at the thrift store.

For the place settings, I used my persimmon fiestaware dinner plates, the salad plates, and an orange napkin. I thought about using my lemon/lime slice embedded glass tumblers, but decided that would be too much.

Fortunately, it ended up not being quite as hot as the prediction because we had some cloud cover, but it was still plenty warm.

What do you think?
