Easy Outdoor Summer Tablescaping

Summer is here and we are excited to share with you our tips on how to create the perfect outdoor table to impress your friends and family this summer.

Linen

Easy breezy fabrics are perfect for Summer. Cotton linen is the perfect fabric for warmer days. Linen napkins are a perfect touch if you want a more elegant and formal setting for the table. Try exploring colourful options like green or light blue to add a summery vibe to the setting.

Floral Arrangements

Nothing screams summer than summery flower arrangements. They are arguably the finishing touch to any table inside or out. Head to your local florist and pick out a big bunch of flowers. Find something to put them in like a jam jar or a pot. Wildflowers that you find on the roadside can easily be snipped and put into jam jars for a more casual setting.

Tableware

Use high-quality and durable tableware for your outdoor dining space. Colourful glasses are always a great wait to brighten up a tablescape. Make sure your crockery fits in with your theme whether it’s funky, vintage, or sophisticated.

Easy Food

Although we would all love to be professional chefs, slaving over a hot stove isn’t the best way to entertain your guests. It’s best to serve food that is light and can be served cold. Salads are ideal as you can make them ahead of time. Antipasti boards are great and cater to all tastes.

Lighting

If you are planning on entertaining into the evening time, lighting on your outdoor table is the perfect way to set the mood. Tea lights are always a perfect subtle addition or battery-powered candles. For something a little more, lanterns are always a good addition to a table.
