Tablescapes Featuring Red, White & Blue

Let me show you how I incorporated Red, White & Blue !

When I was growing up, our church always put on a dinner they called “The Calendar Supper”.  The ladies were assigned a different month of the year and were tasked with decorating a table with a theme that related to that month.  They would prepare a salad and a dessert specific to the month. Ham loaf, scalloped potatoes and green beans were served as the main course. The ladies could either use the church’s dishes or bring in their own.  As a child, it seemed like my Mom always got a “lame” month.  Her group would get January or August.  She never got the cool months like February or December.

In the Fall of 2012, the church ladies decided to do a Calendar Supper as a fundraiser.  They hadn’t hosted a Calendar Supper in years.  So I raced to sign up to decorate a table.  I KNEW they would give me a “good” month…. after all, I was the town florist.  Who else should get a “good” month but someone who is gonna kick that table decorating out of the park (or in our case, the basement).  But guess what, I got……. January.  Really?

After I was finished muttering about the absolute unfairness of it all, I decided to decorate with an Inauguration Day theme.  One reason was I could serve my beautiful Red, White and Blue salad:

and the other reason was we had a ton of Red, White and Blue decorating things at the flower shop.  And I knew where they were.  Oftentimes, not being able to find something was a big problem at the flower shop. But I did know exactly where the Red, White & Blue decorating things were. 

The Table Decoration

My best friend Robin offered to help me with my table.  We used a piece of glittery red felt as a table runner.  I had 4 red vases. A single red rose surrounded by baby’s breath accented with a red/white & blue bow was placed in a ruby red vase.  A festive centerpiece was placed in the middle of the table.  Two sets of three flags also graced the center of the table.

The plates were made of melamine and were actually some outdoor picnic plates my Mom had.  The cups were red Solo cups to cut down on dish washing.  The tables were set for 8 people.  We sent the red rose vases home with 4 of the people.

I was actually quite pleased with how our table turned out.  In hindsight, I think the ladies gave me January as a compliment.  They knew I could come up with a creative way to honor the month of January!

Red, White & Blue At Home

Pictured below is another version of a Patriotic table setting.  This one is in my parents’ dining room.  I used milk glass glasses in place of the red Solo cups.  A tray in the center of the table holds a beautiful cobalt blue vase from Denmark as well as a crystal vase with two American Flags. The plates were accented with the use of a red placemat.

I don’t talk about my faith a lot. I do believe I don’t talk about my faith a lot.  I do believe God puts certain people in your path for a reason.  An example of this occurred on Tuesday.  It was colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy day.  I was really nervous about how it would all work since it was my first time since I had my cancer surgery. 

 The nurse that was taking care of me in the pre op area turned out to be the same nurse who had prayed for me last year. My husband was in the parking lot of the medical center speaking with his friend who happened to work at the center with this particular nurse. I was very sick at the time and they prayed for my healing.  It was great to be able to thank her in person and let her see that the prayers had been answered. ❤️

Then the anesthesiologist came in and told me about his cousin who had also been diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer about a year ago. He mentioned some of the treatments his cousin had had and how important a positive attitude is.  I was touched that he took the time to tell me about his cousin’s experience. 

 We had arranged in advance to have my husband’s friend as the nurse anesthesist.  He was able to pray with us as well as reassure us about the procedure.

The procedure went well. The three polyps that the surgeon removed were sent to pathology.  The report is already back and there no evidence of cancer.  Prayers were answered again❤️
