Welcome to Panoply's Summer Tablescape Party!
My kitchen cart is decorated for the summer in a patriotic theme. Everything is close at hand when I need it, dishes, flatware, napkins.....
.....mini plates for appetizers....
a large platter for desserts....
...and luncheon plates....
My table is set for breakfast....
I always look forward to bringing out the MacKenzie-Childs enamel and ceramic Star Plates!
The red and white runner is from Target, the blue stemware is from Dollar Tree, the red star bowl and flatware are from Pottery Barn, the appetizer plates are from Hobby Lobby and the checked dinner plates and topiary are from MacKenzie-Childs.
The red, white, and blue color palette is highly symbolic due to the American flag and I like to keep using these colors all summer.
So, what's on the menu?
French Toast, fresh fruit and sausage patties.

Patti, your summer tablescape is red, white and blue-tiful! The colors and layers create such an inviting setting for gathering with family and friends. Your kitchen cart is equally charming, and I always enjoy seeing how creatively you style it for the season. As always, it’s treat to hop with you. ❤️🤍💙
ReplyDeletePatti, I agree with Mary--your patriotic tablescape IS red, white, and blue-tiful! I really love how you styled your cart and everything looks so festive and celebratory!
ReplyDeleteI do love a good kitchen cart. You know, I have a bamboo bar cart that is just in the closet. I never use it. You have really inspired me to do so. I think I’m going to spend the summer trying to come up with something very interesting. Your table is beautiful. I love all of the stars and stripes. I’m asking myself why I don’t have any stars and stripes. McKenzie Childs is always wonderful, and I do like that dinner plate, but the star shaped plates are what really are calling my name here. It’s really lovely.
ReplyDeleteExcellent array of items on both your tabke and cart, Patti! You truly have such vast collection of MC items for every occasion, and the mix of other high and low-end items proves it can be done tastefully. Your AI avatar is perfect! Thank you for sharing your talent in styling this great breakfast table for two and side party at the ready for this summer tabkescape blog hop.
ReplyDeletePatti your cart is adorable and I love that you keep your red, white and blue out all summer...and why not? There are so many patriotic themes to be had...Memorial Day, Flag Day, 4th of July, Veterans Day, Labor Day and I am sure I have missed more. I keep mine out too! The Captain put the bunting up on May 20th and it even stay put up til Fall. I always like seeing your MKC pieces and what a collection you have. I also like that MKC is coming out with so many new colors, especially in their check patterns. Have a great and wonderful summer. ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
ReplyDeletePatti, your red, white, and blue stars and stripes table and bar cart really set the stage for a patriotic summer. It's fun to see all your MKC pieces styled for the summer holidays. Cute avatar, too! Happy 250th!

Patti, it's a marvelous idea to have all your Americana table elements stashed on the kitchen cart, ready to use at a moment's notice. And what colorfully detailed dishes, napkins and flatware you've assembled! I'm sure you'll be able to make endless fun combinations with them all summer long. I love the star-shaped plates and bowls. I fell hard for the sweet topiary and the figurines. Have a Happy Fourth!
