It’s almost July and it’s time for a red, white, and blue summer table. Today’s offering is a casual table set for a patritoic celebration. First I added a white tablecloth to the table. Then I used my new bright blue placemats with my white plates. A Dollar Tree red star paper plate tops the place setting. For those of you who don’t live in the USA, it’s just a fun table with colors used by many countries. Did you know that 29 countries use these 3 colors in their flags?
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day. Mine was quiet but enjoyable. Each year I start adding a few patriotic red, white, and blue items to my home around Memorial Day. This is my theme up into mid July. I also like to play with graphics.

It’s summer and almost 4th of July. Each year between Memorial Day and 4th of July, I decorate with patriotic decor. Last week I shared my homemade patriotic table scarf from an old t-shirt. I used it with a red, white, and blue centerpiece with my country bandana summer ring.
Just before Memorial Day, I started adding a few red, white, and blue touches to my home. I started with my front door. I got my wreath on clearance last year at the end of the summer. I love the rustic feel of the twig heart with the red, white and blue accents.

I hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day. Company came to visit me for a long weekend which I thoroughly enjoyed.
Prior to the visit, I wanted to try adding red, white and blue for the holiday. I like to do things sweet and simple. I usually get into trouble when I complicate things. Have you ever heard of the KISS principle? I discovered it early in life.
