A Tablescape for the Beach

Who doesn’t want to be at the beach right now! This tablescape idea started with these beach scene melamine salad plates. I went a bit wild finding everything for this table setting. I’m not sure where I found the turquoise tablecloth, I have had it for several years.

I was browsing through a Front Gate catalog a few years ago that had come in the mail and I saw these plates. I had been looking for a salad plate with a beachie scene and I loved the colors on this one. The palm trees and colorful beach umbrellas design is perfect.

These turquoise melamine salad plates came from HomeGoods a few years ago. They were made by IL Mulino New York. Like the salad plates, they are a nice heavy melamine.

Hubby went to the Dollar Store and bought silver chargers for me and then spray painted them this bright pink to match the salad plates. I am going to have to do that more often. It is such an easy way to have chargers the right colors for your table setting. The lime green place mats came from Pier 1 several years ago.

This flatware was called Madeline Green and I bought it at World Market online several years ago. I really like the frosted design on the handles. There are many flatware sets available online right now in different colors that are frosted like this set.

The white Adirondack chair napkin rings came from Wilford & Lee Home Accents online. I found the DII Design Imports tropical theme napkins on Amazon a few years ago after watching for beachie type napkins there for quite a while. They were a perfect color match for this table setting.

The white Adirondack chair place card holders came from Kohl’s online a few years ago. They were a natural wood but Hubby spray painted them white for me. I added a small plastic beach ball to match the centerpiece.

The lime green glass goblets came from Pier 1 several years ago, I use them several times a year. I like how tall they are and the design. The turquoise plastic goblets also came from Pier 1.

I wanted a beach type chair for a centerpiece and I started looking for doll chairs. I finally found this one on Amazon. It was made by Matty’s Toy Shop and it was just what I was looking for. I’ll probably put it somewhere with a plant on it later. I bought the small doll towel, beach ball, and shovel and pail set on Amazon as well.

I have had this cream and sugar set for many years, they are such a hoot! They were made by Daniel Dela Cruz for Enesco.

I had a lot of fun pulling this beach tablescape together. Myabe one day we can actually use it at the beach!
