 June 14th, Flag Day, commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag,

paying tribute to the banner that waves above us all.

Old Glory’s official history dates back to June 14, 1777,

when the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution

establishing America’s banner.

The U.S. flag has gone through an evolution of 26 changes before it became the iconic symbol

that it is today, proudly flying with 13 stripes and 50 stars,

to represent the original 13 colonies and all 50 states.

Americans are encouraged to observe National Flag Week by displaying the flag,

so I’m waving the flag and sharing some patriotic table inspiration

for your Star-Spangled celebration!

    Beautiful..,as always. I loved the red truck tabletop ( honestly I loved them all!). My hubby used to have a red Ford 150 now he is on his 2nd blue one. Think I have to get a small truck for flowers. Thanks for the inspiration. Peace.

    Three cheers for the Red, White, and Blue! I love everything about your lovely post honoring our flag. I especially love the Staffordshire Liberty Blue plates! Beautiful lakeside table, too. Our Flag Day Ceremony was rescheduled due to bad weather…and today hasn’t been much better.

    Love ALL of these, especially the red & white quilt and the paisley with striped runner underpinnings. Your post prompted me for a few table elements I’d forgotten I had. It happens when we love our stuff so much and keep getting more….!

  14. June 16, 2023 at 8:16 pm

    I think I forgot that we have the same red and cream quilt, Mary! Thank you for all the inspirational tablescapes. My flag is out there proudly waving! 🇺🇸
