Americana Table Settings for Outdoor Entertaining

One of the best holidays to look forward to is the 4th of July. Just the thought of it conjures up thoughts of BBQs, summer dining, & outdoor celebrating. And with this all important holiday right around the corner, I wanted to share some great table setting looks for you no matter what kind of celebration you plan on having.

My favorite thing about these different looks is that you can utilize them for both indoor and outdoor gatherings ā€” while all of the dining plates are melamine and ideal for outdoor dining because they are lightweight and affordable, they are equally perfect for an indoor patriotic party. I also like the idea of utilizing pieces that can be used for other looks and holidays, so Iā€™m sharing different pieces in reds, blues, & white tones that can be staples in your table settings for the future.

Go for a more modern Americana table setting with bold blues and fun patterns, like these MANGO WOOD SERVING UTENSILS & STARBURST SERVING PLATTER .

This BLUE FOOD COVER is a stylish way to keep food safe for an outdoor BBQ.

This ACACIA WOOD CHEESE BOARD is a great staple to have year round and daily use, and is perfect for a table setting to share cheese, bread, etc.

I love these PLEATED OUTDOOR PLATES that give you the look of quality china dinner plates without the price tag ā€” these are melamine and very affordable!

Woven placemats are one of my favorite items for creating a tablescape, and I love these BLUE RUM SEAGRASS PLACEMATS that can be styled for both casual and more sophisticated settings.
