Happy First Official Day of Spring! Today I wanted to put together a recap of my favorite FH tables from last Spring because I always use my old tablescapes to influence future ones! Hope these bright and cheery table settings get you thinking in color!

Starting with colorful printed placemats… I loved this Champagne and Peonies party … mostly for the Sugarfina candy and Rosé Veuve Clicquot, but equally as much for the pink napkin rings and striped straws.

On to the blues… I love blue placemats matched back to simple white summer flowers like daisies {which I put together for this FH post}, and how cute are the glass bottles for serving summer drinks? Then on my Instagram I styled a simple dinner with blue hydrangeas as my centerpiece. A fabulous vase filled with colorful flowers is all you need to take your table from winter to spring! And then a must for you Spring shopping list, these Juliska Bamboo Napkin Rings.

Can you believe the inspiration for this next table came from a pitcher of pink lemonade? I was loving the way the pink popped and needed to build a table around it! I added striped napkins and a large orchid to host a “girls only” party. Sometimes a themed drink is all you need to set the tone.

So the bottom line… bright colors are essential, bright drinks served with striped straws are always a hit, and bright flowers complete the look! Looking forward to many more bright and cheery tabletops this coming year! Stay tuned in my Entertain section.
