An ironstone pitcher serves as a vase and centerpiece for the table, filled with hydrangeas and flags. I exercised my freedom and independence, using a ‘Happy 4th of July’ cake topper/banner, atop the hydrangeas instead of a cake. ;)

Mary, beautiful tablesettings! I borrowed quite a few ideas from your posts! Always so many tips and instructions to help replicate your photos. I’m making the napkin rings this weekend. I purchased the pins last year but did not get around to making them. Yours look so pretty!
So thankful for our troops. Brave men and women who serve for our continued freedom.
Thank you!!
Absolutely beautiful and very inspiring!
Mary, I love every table and floral arrangement! I am partial to the lakeside and the mountain settings! But each is gorgeous and unique! I love the red, white , and blue!
Happy Thursday ❤️🤍💙
Hi Mary ~ what an inspiring and patriotic post ! Your post instantly brought back childhood memories to me. Memorial Day is very special to me. My dear grandmother Elizabeth was a Gold-Star Mother as her son, Robert, was MIA in WWII. She used to ride with the other GS Mothers in a decorated Cadillac convertible in the Memorial Day parade and she always brought me with her and let me hold the gorgeous wreath of flowers that was placed on the WWIi monument every year. Those memories are bittersweet to me but Memorial Day is a day I remember my Uncle Bobby and riding in the parade with Grandma Elizabeth, honoring him 🇺🇸
Mary, Your creativity knows no bounds! I love seeing your tables for the holidays and seasons. I’m so glad you included your flag napkin ring DIY as I missed it somehow. I’m looking forward to making some, thank you!
Beautiful Mary – each and every one of them! A lovely and inspiring tribute to all that died in military service. Happy Thursday!
So much beauty and patriotic inspiration you’ve shared, Mary! I’d be happy to sit at any of your tables. ❤️ 🇺🇸 💙
Mary, You always inspire! Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity with us. Three Cheers for the Red, White and Blue!
So many fabulous patriotic tables ideas! Thank you for sharing!
Your little truck is so cute, I want to try that!
Mary, it goes without saying that my patriotic loving heart has been looking back at each table. Each one inspires and makes me eager to pull out my patriotic things. I recently found a pair of George and Martha Washington blue glass stems. I’d not seen them before and scooped them right up.
I can pick a favorite of your tables. Each one inspires and delights, and the lake side setting makes it all the more special. I would love to live by the water.
Oh Mary! What beautiful tables full of inspiration for the Red, White, and Blue. Your lakeside tables are some of my favorites. I appreciate your DIY on the napkin holders.
❤️🤍💙
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful roundup!

We must not forget those who died for our freedom. 🇺🇸

Mary, Many thanks for sharing these Red, White & Blue tablescapes! Really love the

I’m a new follower and I have to say, I’m blown away by your tables and photography! I come from a military family so my heart beats red, white and blue. Keep up the good work!
Always so FULL of inspiring ideas! All gorgeous, too.

Mary, you always provide such attractive table settings. I particularly enjoy anything patriotic as my husband was in the service. Thank you for your tribute.
