Simple 4th of July Tablescape

Simple, cheap, festive, and cute!  All things I love about decor.  Come check out my Simple 4th of July Tablescape!

Happy July!  With 4th of July just around the corner I thought I would share my simple 4th of July tablescape in case you need any last minute ideas.  As always I love to keep decor simple and all these items were stuff I already had on hand.  But the star of the show….just these little target dollar spot flags!

I’m sure most of you already have these little flags on hand but if not I have still seen them recently in the Target dollar spot or Amazon.  Then I say shop your house for some neutral pieces to put with it.  I started with these water hyacinth placemats, I love the summer vibe they give off.  Then I added my usual white buffet plates that are a staple in all my place settings no matter the holiday or season.  I chose simple white napkins and jute string for my napkin holder.

Then I just added the flags to each place setting.

I also wanted to give it a try with some blue gingham napkins as they are also such a darling option for summer!

I ended up keeping it white this time around to show off the flag better.

Mason Jar glasses were added to keep with the simple farmhouse look.  I always love keeping little paper straws on hand and I thought the blue with polka dots would be the perfect touch!

The rest of the stuff on the table, (table runner, galvanized tray and bucket, flowers with big flags) were already there for the past month.

I hope this inspires you to shop your house and create a beautiful patriotic tablescape with items you already have.  If you are just starting out and looking for ideas I found purchasing simple neutral pieces, white, tan, galvanized etc. that can go with any holiday and season is a great place to start!  Then I just bring in the accent color for the time of year.   I find that so much easier than trying to get tableware to match every holiday.

Wishing you all a wonderful 4th!
