Beach Tablescape... Welcome to the 108th Tablescape Thursday!

It's still beautiful summer weather here in Georgia. So, I've loaded up the car and I thought you and I would take one last beach trip before the cool fall weather arrives. Are ya with me? :)

A while back for a Tablescape Thursday, I posted two wonderful table settings created by my talented friend, Bonnie. You can view those HERE. I fell in love with the salad plates she used in one of those tablescapes. A search on eBay turned up two sets of four plates (8 total) and they were calling my name. I've paired them with another set of beachy china and stemware I found at Kohl's over 3 years ago. Hope you enjoy this last beach escape before fall officially arrives.


Summer breeze makes me feel fine...




The breezes were non-stop this gorgeous summer day...you may not be able to feel them, but at least you can see them. :)







Starfish are keeping our napkins from blowing away...







A few close ups...the appetizer seabiscuit plate...




Salad plate atop a dinner plate with a shell border...













Lots of shells collected from many years of beach trips to Hilton Head, Sanibel and Captiva Island...




Flatware has a shell-shaped design on the handle...













Getting darker...time for a little candlelight...
