Hello and Happy June! According to the meteorological calendar, summer began yesterday. Our ninety-three degree day confirmed!
“And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
Philippians 1:6
I have gathered some of my favorite summertime tablescapes from the archives to welcome the new season!
Colorful zinnias add beautiful color to a table!
I am now craving a slice of ice cold watermelon on this hot day!
A pitcher with attached memories is filled with hydrangeas…
…complementing the colors of the April Cornell cloth!
A box makes an interesting container for flowers!
The flowers are hydrangeas…a must when they are in season!
Once again, something a bit unusual holds the flowers!
I found this Clabber Girl Baking Powder Can in the back of an antique store. Reminder to myself…use it again!
We planted three snowflake hydrangeas last fall, I love the way they cascade!
Lemon macarons…yum!
This beach-inspired table has a fun backstory!
The shell box is a favorite find!
The Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt was made by my grandmother!
Another arrangement of hydrangeas, but the quilt is the star! Of course, we would never use it for food. It rests at the foot of the bed in my guest room.
Sweet Peaches & Summer Flowers
Peaches are my favorite fruit, so why not celebrate their juicy goodness on a table!
Zinnias, sunflowers, Black-eyed Susans, and limelights, all cut from my garden, make a colorful centerpiece!
A table to honor our pollinator friends…the bees!
I baked this amazing honey tea loaf cake to celebrate the bees. I didn’t plan to share food in this post, it just happened. I am now wanting a slice of honey cake topped with fresh peaches and whipped cream. Throw in a lemon macaron for good measure!
As always, thank you for your visit and gracious comments.
I will be joining fellow table stylists for a summer tablescape blog hop on Tuesday. Monday, I will join my bloom friends as we welcome a guest to Monday Morning Blooms. There will be plenty of summer inspiration for you to enjoy! Wishing you a joy-filled day!

Thank you for the Eye Candy this morning!
Happy June Sweet Pam!
Thanks so much, Nancy. Happy weekend dear one!!
A beautiful round up of table inspiration to welcome summer! It’s always a treat to have a virtual seat at one of your tables! Happy Thursday. ♥
Thank you, Mary. The weather is supposed to be a little cooler today, I sure hope so!
Oh, Pam! How do I even choose which one I love the most as I love them all! Of course I’m partial to your grandmother’s quilt! What a unique way to present the flowers (baking powder, boxes, etc…). Each setting packed a punch! You have such an amazing gift of detail and beauty! The honey loaf looks yummy, too. You really bring me happiness and a smile when you share your beautiful tablescapes. Sending love and hugs always! 💛💛🥰🤗
Thank you, Karla for your sweet and encouraging comments. I am praying for you, my friend. Sending love and hugs 🙏🏻🥰🤗♥️
Thank you so much, Pam. I definitely feel it. 🙏🏻💕🤗🥰💪🏻
Your tablescapes are making me so excited for the zinnias to start blooming! I got my seeds in late, and they germinated in a week! Pam, ask your dad if he remembers clabber ice cream! He is younger than my father, so maybe not. Daddy said it was something they made during the Deptession to save money. A little old lady talked him into cleaning her yard when he was about 13 with the promise of ice cream. She brought brought out a big bowl on a hot summer day, and he eagerly dove in. It was clabber and apparently quite horrible because he mentioned it every time we went for ice cream!
Thank you, Roxanne. My zinnias are growing, can’t wait for their happy colors. I will ask my Daddy about the clabber ice cream, it sounds horrible.
Any idea where you purchased the multicolored striped glasses on the zinnia table? I love them and they would be perfect with my vintage Fiesta.
Good morning. The glasses came from Pier 1 many years ago and happen to be one of my favorites. I miss Pier 1 stores.
A beautiful post, Pam! I especially love your grandmother’s quilt. And, I learned something about you, that peaches are your favorite fruit! Peaches are also my favorite fruit. And how I wish we could sit down and enjoy a piece of the honey tea loaf!
Thank you dear friend. I didn’t know peaches were your favorite fruit!
They are all so lovely!
Thanks so much, Penny!
Pam, as usual your table are gorgeous. I love the colorful striped glasses you bought from Pier1 years ago. So many favorites. Adding a slice of watermelon is perfect on a hot day. Hydrangeas are always gorgeous. Difficult to select a favorite because ai adores each one. Love the seashell box. Enjoy your summer and ai shall see you on June 7th for a summer tablescape blog hop.
Love all all!
Thank you Jo Ann♥️
Thank you so much, Linda. I am looking forward to the blog hop!

Thanks so much, Kris!
oh the baking powder tin makes a wonderful home for your beautiful blossoms, friend. and it’s amazing how the glassware at the top mimics the colors of the tablecloth.
you have such an eye for color, detail, and all things lovely and gracious. bless you for being in my life, friend …
You are so kind, Linda and thank you for your visits!
A virtual wash of stunning color combinations and creativity. Bright red watermelon on a dark green plate, peaches
amid a pastel setting….what an eye. The memory-filled treasured quilts take center stage… Is it my imagination or do
these tablescapes carry a “cooling” effect on what could be a hot day? Just might be the serenity of it all. Thank
you for the beautiful ideas for summertime entertaining.
Thank you, Mary. Your comments warm my heart. Wishing you a lovely weekend!
WOWWWW!!! Amazing! Balm to the soul…
Thanks so much, Maristella!

So many beautiful tables Pam – I can’t decide which to read about first! 🙂 Thanks for all your wonderful inspiration. I learn something new every time. Happy Summer my friend!

You led with the zinnias and I think they lead the way for me, too! But I really love using that wonderful quilt as your table cloth. Oh, golly — I love ’em all!
Thank you, Jeanie. Zinnias and sunflowers are happy flowers!
Dear Pam, such lovely tables. I am so happy I am not on a selection committee. But if I had to select a winner it may be the table in honor of the bees. They are so important. Happy June, dear one and enjoy your beautiful garden.
Thank you, Sandra. Happy gardening dear one!
Beautiful summertime round up Pam! I especially love the zinnias paired with watermelon and the hydrangeas with the sea shells! I must get busy on my table for next week…
Thank you, Jenna. I would love to have a slice of watermelon this morning. Happy Weekend!
Recipe for Honey Tea cake, please. You have my mouth watering for peaches!
All of these tablescapes are gorgeous. I can’t pick a favorite. I love the colors, the flowers, and the boxes as well as the tableware and the tablecloth fabrics. Pinned.

Thanks so much, Cindy. I too a macaron class several years ago at Sur la Table. They are difficult to make, I gave up trying! Happy week to you!
I’m sorry, I missed your post, Pam. I can’t keep up.
I could scroll over and over and not tire of your creativity. All the tables are so lovely.
Busy week ahead for all of us. I don’t know how you do it.
