“And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands;”
Hebrews 1:10
Happy Tuesday sweet friends! I am getting prepared to celebrate our nation’s birthday tomorrow and I sure hope you have your plans finalized!
As we find time, we are accomplishing some inside projects that have been on the to-do-list forever. Last Friday as I was cleaning out before starting on our current project, I discovered something that brought back a few memories. Late 70’s or early 80’s our master bedroom was painted in the now very popular blush color. I used a Waverly floral fabric as the primary fabric and mixed it with plaids, stripes, and a mini print. The room was very pretty with balloon curtains, bedding, and a canopy bed. Yes, The Renaissance Man slept underneath a canopy with floral fabric and never once complained. Let’s just say it was my Mario Buatta room. For some unknown reason, I kept one of the sheets and discarded all the bedding, pillows, and curtains. I was about to throw it away when I suddenly had an idea, I can repurpose the sheet as a tablecloth.
With God’s creation as a backdrop, I love setting a table in the garden!
The vintage and slightly faded sheet makes a floral splash!
What I love most about this tabletop is that I had everything on hand.
Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage salad plates rest on toile patterned Churchill dinner plates. Both were purchased at Tuesday Morning several years ago.
Hydrangeas that I cut from my front yard were placed in a matching Churchill pitcher and bowl for an easy centerpiece!
The mophead hydrangeas have very deep colors varying from blue to purple.
The limelights are almost in full bloom!
Sterling napkin rings hold Cynthia Rowley napkins that I found at TJ Maxx in early spring.
Godinger stemware that I use for everyday completes the place setting.
“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.”
Proverbs 25:11
Light is fading!

Pam, I love your table setting. It looks so refreshing in your garden and relaxing.
Thank you and have a safe and Happy 4th!
Thank you Betty! Have a joy-filled day!
Very pretty. Sheets do make good tablecloths, and they are the richest coloured hydrangeas I’ve seen.
Thank you Cath. I just enjoyed your guest writer’s post.
Wonderful idea! Your landscape and table setting are perfect.
Thank you Nancy, have a safe and happy 4th!
Your garden is wonderful! And so is your tabletop – I love the sheet/tablecloth – I wish I had kept some of mine!
Thanks for sharing the beauty.
Thank you for your sweet visit!
Oh Pam ~ this post is goes in with my favorites, possibly at the top. I love the colors in the sheet and the overall gorgeous floral. Your hydrangeas are luscious – they do love the south. What a wonderful treat to sit at such a lovely table in your beautiful garden.
Happy Fourth to you and your family!
Sandra, thank you sweet friend!
Love how you used the beautiful sheet as a tablecloth and what an awesome idea. Your table is beautiful Pam. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Thank you sweet friend!
Likely you saved that sheet because it’s so pretty! Love the pattern trim too. Waverly made some gorgeous prints. Those hydrangeas! So rich in color! Very pretty, Pam. Enjoy your 4th.
Thank you Rita! Enjoy your 4th!
Every time I think your garden could not look more beautiful, new photos show it to look even more exquisite! I have hydrangea envy!! Years and years ago, my prim and proper mother floored me when she said “a married lady should decorate her bedroom so the man feels he is an important visitor”. My parents’ bedroom was always very feminine, and I never once heard Daddy complain!
Roxanne, thank you so much. I love the story you shared about your prim and proper mother. I think she had the right idea!
Pam, I never tire of seeing a tablescape with your beautiful garden as a backdrop! I wish that you could come to my house and give me some ideas for my flower beds. Your gardens have so many wonderful layers, textures, and colors. The sheet makes such a lovely underpinning for your beautiful tablescape. There is something so pretty about pink and green together. Enjoy your holiday, sweet friend!!!
Shannon, thank you for your sweet comments and encouragement Blessings sweet friend!
What a beautiful post. Love the large floral tablecloth..genius to save it. Most difficult to find anything this beautiful. This is one of my favorite tables with breathtakingly background.
How sweet, thank you Dianne!
That reminds me of a lovely watercolor painting, so pretty and soft. I did a vintage inspired table over the weekend that I’ll be showing tomorrow. I am longing for simpler times.
I can’t wait to see your vintage inspired table!
Pam, your romantic tablescape as well as your landscaping are truly inspirational!! I too love the usage of sheets as a tablecloth or even curtains. In the 70’s, I actually wallpapered a room using them!! Truly gorgeous my friend!!
Thank you Penny. Wishing you a beautiful Tuesday!
Your garden is absolutely amazing and the table looks stunning. Such a dream setting.
Thank you sweet Marty!
The hydrangea are amazing. What’s the name of these?
Hi Mildred. I have always called them mop heads. Someone gave them to me over eleven years ago and their blooms are always deep blues and purples because of the soil.
What a wonderful idea! I’m going to look through my old sheets now! Thank you for such a great idea! Happy Independence Day!
Thank you Kelli! Happy Independence Day!
Hello dear Pam… Your table is out of a dream. I love the soft pastels and the pop of the deep purple hydrangeas. I haven’t been visiting blogs much but I never miss your gorgeous eye candy on Instagram. Hope you are enjoying your Summer. xx
Katie, I read on your last post you would be back first of September. Enjoy the summer and the break from blogging. It sounds like a great idea! Sending you hugs!
Pam what a beautiful table setting. Your Hydrangeas are gorgeous.
HAPPY 4Th OF JULY

Isn’t it great to find new use for something old? The color of your hydrangeas is gorgeous. Mine are just starting to bloom. Good timing as the peonies are almost gone.

Oh, Pam! This is just breathtaking! You are SO talented, and it just warms my heart to come here and visit with you.

Beautiful, beautiful….Happy Independence Day Pam!!!
Thank you Shirley!
It doesn’t look 90+ and humid. It looks like a glorious sunny-and-75 degree day! I love it — always so beautiful!
Happy Fourth!
Happy Thursday and thank you Jeanie!
Just gorgeous Pam! I love your tables set in your garden and repurposing the sheet as a tabecloth was so smart! Our limelights are a couple of weeks behind yours and will be breaking out into bloom in a week or so. Happy 4th!
Thank you Mary, happy Thursday!
Your hydrangeas make a bold statement on your ‘tablecloth’ and the pitcher is the perfect vase! Sheets were so much prettier then – now they all seem to be solid colors. With the heat (and humidity) we’re having, I’ll admire your tablescape through the windows, lol!
Thank you dear Sandra. Have a wonderful weekend!
What a beautiful garden tablescape. It is so refreshing! Happy 4th to you and yours!
Thank you, Nancy, happy Thursday!
Love this tablescape!!! I really love the beautiful hydrangeas!! The sheet is beautiful as a table cloth!
Thank you so much and have a wonderful day!
Your garden looks like a lovely spot for a chilled glass of sweet tea.
Thank you Kiki! Have a wonderful weekend!
Just perfect. Beautiful.

Wow Pam- what a great idea using the sheet for the tablecloth! It’s a very pretty pattern- love the colors. You generated a beautiful tablescape on it and I love those hydrangeas!
Thank you dear Liz. I love using what I have on hand. Happy weekend!
Mario Buatta, I had that look too. I can see why you saved that sheet, it is lovely and makes a wonderful tablecloth. As everyone has said, your garden and table are beautiful. Your color combinations remind me of Monet’s garden, I could see your pretty table in that setting.
Thank you Karen, wishing you a wonderful week!
Beautiful outdoors tablescape as usual dear friend. I do adore your floral table topper, so cheerful and colorful !
Lovely as usual.
Fabby
Thank you so much Fabby!
This is so stunning, and to think that gorgeous tablecloth is a sheet!
