Its Tablescape Thursday, graciously hosted by Susan from Between Naps on the Porch.
This week I wanted to go with something cheery and fun… but practical for casual outdoor dining. Of course I had to incorporate some red, polka dots and cherries!
I used black chargers under cherry and polka dot plates.
Of course I had to throw some gingham in somewhere. 
I used red and white gingham napkins tied with a small, simple black bow. I also used small mason jars with gingham bows.
I used a black glass canister with cherries all over to hold some fresh, frilly white flowers.
Take a look at these fabulous candles… white with ginormous red polka dots. 
And I brought out this white pitcher with red polka dots for easy refills without having to go back into the kitchen.
I LOVE these seat cushions from Home Goods…
A couple more peeks around the table…
I like both Adam and Kris…but I have to root for Kris since hubby is from Arkansas.
I love cherries and I love the polka dots! Very nice!
