PO and other decorators
 

PO my event is going to have a theme "Summer Fun" and we will be decorating our tables with that theme.

I am thinking of maybe doing a tall slender clear vase, putting white sand in it and a beach ball on top.

A red and white checkered table topper and a slice of watermelon in the center.

But I need more ideas as I have more than one table to decorate.

I'll throw a few of these out as I have a busy weekend and won't get a chance until next week.

This isn't following your color theme, but this is my favorite beach theme. Very soothing colors.

I always think of lanterns when I think of the beach. Would love a three grouping on a round table.

Love the top photo with the serving bowl filled with sand and shells. The bottom photo gives me the idea of a larger pail with shells, star fish, silver dollars and a beach ball. Of course, I don't know what sizes you will be able to find in a beach ball. Never looked around for that.

I like this. I can picture various sizes hanging over the buffet table. Of course, you could also hang beach balls mingled with a few little pails, shovels or maybe starfish you find at a party shop.

Ignore Timmy and Randy. You have to visualize the Margarita glasses being something else. :heeheehee I love the glass serving dish with the white sand and the balls. You could make those with Styrofoam wrapped in fabric that is the colors of a beach ball, or scrapbook paper Mod Podged to stick and give a shine. I think crepe paper colors would bleed with glue, so that might not be an option.

Anyway, that's a few ideas. I'd throw some sand dollars or tiny shells in your vases with the sand if that is what you are wanting to use.

Thanks, I really love the sea shells.

I wish I could find a tiny pool I could put water in. :happydance

Re: PO and other decorators
 

Yep! I can imagine lots of things besides Margarita glasses! :lol

I would ditch the cloth and put beach glass in its place.

Ah. A kegger, then. Yeah, that works, too! :lol

Re: PO and other decorators
 

I love the star fish in the goblet.

Also, I think a sandpail with the sand tools would be neat.

As usual you are doing a great job!

Re: PO and other decorators
 

At the Dollar Tree here you can get those smooth colored stones in either clear or that pretty teal color for only $1.00 for a good size bag. If you have a Dollar Tree near you, that's a good place for you to look for them if you find you might be using them.

Re: PO and other decorators
 

I do.

Re: PO and other decorators
 

That's beautiful man! :tissue

I like this one too. Gee, I wonder what could be in it? Just visualize lemonade, Kool-aid or orange soda.

A little hard to visualize that bottle holding anything else. Just sayin'....

A couple of "safe" cups for Timmy and Randy! :heeheehee

Esther,
I have a couple of out of town trips and then company coming to stay for a while after that, so this will be my last post for some time. Just wanted to get a few more in. LOL!

Thought you might think this was funny - going with your beach theme. :heeheehee

Did you check at Garden Ridge, Michaels and Hobby Lobby?

Re: PO and other decorators
 

Yep, John Deere works anywhere. :heeheehee

Re: PO and other decorators
 

No, I don't have a Garden Ridge anymore where I am living, I can check Hobby Lobby or Michaels. Good idea.:thumbsup
