“Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.”
Psalm 143:8
Hello sweet friends. I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. Ours was mostly quiet. Butch and I had lunch with my Daddy on Sunday, and we grilled burgers yesterday for our son, daughter-in-love, and the Princesses. With Memorial Day being the unofficial start to summer, what better time to take a look back at some of my favorite garden tablescapes. Please join me in the garden and I will provide a tall glass of sweet tea with lemon and mint!

Sweet peaches and summer flowers are a lovely combination…and there is the sweet tea as promised, with a slice of peach!
All the flowers were cut from the garden!
I even found a tablecloth celebrating my favorite summer fruit…peaches
“Reverie” is the name of my wedding china used on this table. Do you know what the word reverie means? It is the state of being pleasantly lost in one’s thoughts, a daydream. Lost in reverie perfectly describes this summer table!
Sorry there isn’t tea, but water, lemon, and a sprig of mint for a hot summer day!
A centerpiece of hydrangeas…so simple but elegant!
Lovely limelight hydrangeas highlight the table and the garden!
I love mixing blues and greens for tabletops!
The sun has set on a beautiful summer day.
A table runner of fruits and flowers is a simple, summer, alfresco centerpiece!
A mixture of zinnias, sunflowers, oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruit…
…a table filled with color and texture!
The bistro table is set for tea party dreams…
…tea parties that I would have with our first born princess.
We have enjoyed many tea parties…on the floor, the picnic table, and in a play tent. There is plenty of time for a fancy one!
Y’all know how much I love zinnias. This table is in honor of a simple zinnia bouquet!
Zinnias in bottles and a zinnia bouquet tablecloth…
…combine with watermelon and bright colors for a summertime table set in the garden!
Thank you so much for your sweet visits and gracious comments. Wishing you a joy-filled day!

There is such simple, stunning beauty in your tablescapes. Adding fruit is something I never would have thought of.

Your round up of garden tables is the perfect kick off to Summer Pam! I especially love the table with the fruit and flower runner, so casually elegant! So many beautiful blooms right from your garden and green thumbs 💐 It sounds like you had a lovely Memorial Day with your family. My group just left and I am looking forward to a few days of restful quiet, but I have a feeling the guys will be back on Friday for more snapper fishing 🐟 Looks like a rainy week for all of us…

Sandra at Maison De Jardin says
Good morning, Pam. Your tables are stunning and I am sorry, I can not select a favorite. Each one is different and truly beautiful on its own.
We had a quiet Memorial Day, with very hot weather. Which is to be with us again. It is hard to believe with as much rain as we have had, we are already dragging the garden hose.
Again, a beautiful post with glorious inspiration. Have a wonderful week, my friend.❤
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you Sandra. You are a lovely encourager. Wishing you a lovely week, my friend♥️
Nancy says
Good Morning Pam… it sounds like you had a lovely weekend with Family.
Your round up of garden parties are such a treat for the eyes this morning. I scrolled through your beautiful inspiration with coffee while I sat on my back patio. Such a glorious morning I have had because of you!
Happy Tuesday dear Pam!
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you Nancy. Wishing you a joy-filled week dear one!
Mary says
Just.beautiful Pam, I always enjoy having a virtual seat at one of garden tables! I hope Butch’s sunflowers are coming in in his raised beds and not a buffet for the bunnies or deer. I threw out some zinnia seeds again this year several weeks ago but a majority have been nibbled or dug up by the squirrels so I’ll have to have a redo. Hope you’re drier than we are this week. It looks like another washout. Happy Tuesday❣️🌺🍽🌼
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you Mary. The sunflowers have all come up, we are waiting to see if the deer or bunnies attack the buffet. Mary, I had a redo on zinnias yesterday. I don’t know what happened to our seeds. It has rained all day and promises to rain the rest of the week.
Donna it Vandygriff says
Pam, I’m sharing the Psalm 143:8 verse you shared with several of my friends today. I needed to hear it and I felt it was perfect for several of my friends today too. Thank you for your sweet witness and encouragement!
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Donna, I am so thrilled that you are sharing the verse with your friends today.
Heritage Hall says
If you press the imagination button, your beautiful pictures come equipped with aroma, taste and sound. I can just taste
those succulent peaches and smell the mint from here.Are not watermelons the most refreshing item to fit into a table scape? The colors just sing Summer, and yet they are also those of Christmastide, which leads me to think they were meant for special times. And at this special time of needing comfort and encouragement, you and Butch redeem your gifts by bringing joy to all of us. Bless you.
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Mary, thank you so much. Your words are always a blessing sweet friend ♥️

Thank you Jeanie!
Shannon@Belle Bleu Interiors says
All of these are absolutely beautiful, but I have always admired the fruit and flowers tablescape. It is one of my favorites. Seeing your Zinnias reminds me… you inspired me to order seeds from Floret Farm. I have seeds planted in various areas, and I am so excited to see green leaves and stems popping up! I can’t wait! Happy Tuesday, sweet friend!
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you Shannon. I am so glad you planted zinnias. Have a lovely week sweet friend!
Jemma says
Good Afternoon Pam,
Well this certainly was an enjoyable afternoon scroll and pin for me!
How delightful to be growing such stunning crops of flowers and then incorporating them into the loveliest centerpieces.
Like a previous comment there is certainly no earthly way I can choose a favorite! They are all simply divine, unique and enchanting in their own way.
Hope you are doing well sweet friend,
Jemma
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you dear Jemma. I always love your visits. Have a lovely week my friend!
