Welcome to the 513th Tablescape Thursday!
I’m super excited to share a wonderful summer table with a fun, beach-sea life theme for this week’s Tablescape Thursday! Sandra recently emailed and shared photos of a table she set for a family dinner. I immediately fell in love with the blue and coral color scheme of this whimsical table setting.
Sandra said she found the blue and coral-colored tablecloth while vacationing in Nice, France. What a great souvenir to bring back from vacation. It can be enjoyed and memories relived each time it’s used in a table setting. I will definitely be keeping my eye out for linens the next time I find myself traveling in Europe.
Sandra said the turquoise blue dinner plates are similar to Fiestaware and she has them for many years. The placemats were a find in HomeGoods many years ago. The pretty blue and white striped teapot and cups are by Cynthia Rowley, a lovely find in T.J. Max. Love those!
Sandra found her bamboo flatware here where it’s currently on sale for almost half-price: Bamboo Flatware.
The adorable turtle salad plates are by Vietri from several years ago. I didn’t see them still available at the Vietri website, but they are available at Replacements, Ltd online.
Sandra said the beautiful turtle napkin rings were a gift from a friend who used to care for her turtle whenever she was away on vacation. What a thoughtful and beautiful gift!
Sandra continued the theme of her beach/sealife table setting with a couple of sassy pelicans in her centerpiece.
The pelicans were both finds in Gumps.
Thanks so much to Sandra for sharing photos of this fun summer table setting for this week’s Tablescape Thursday! Looking forward to all the beautiful tables linked for this week’s Tablescape Thursday!

I love the theme and colours on Sandra’s table. The linens are beautiful. Thank you for hosting, Susan.
Thank you for hosting! So pleasant to show up today and see that we both used the same theme and colors for our tables this week! Have a great weekend!
There is so much to like on this table, from the turtle plates and napkin rings on the top to the lovely tablecloth as the foundation. Beautiful.
Thanks Susan for hosting. Someone asked me how I got started tablescaping yesterday and I told them about finding your blog back in 2009 and I was hooked!
Sandra’s tablescape is amazing with so many wonderful elements for her beach sea life theme. I agree her tablecloth was a great find.
SO pretty!!! Love the colors…perfectly beachy!
I may not say it each week, but I so appreciate you hosting a party focusing on tablescapes and the joy they bring!
Thanks so much, Sandra! So glad you enjoy it and thanks so much for joining in the fun! XXX
I really like this – I did a tablescape with similar colors a year or so ago after visiting the beach. I found some salad plates at Home Goods in the teal color with a seashell or coral pattern (can’t remember for sure!) and some dish towels I used for table runners. I’ll be getting those out again next month so I’m happy to have some early inspiration.
Lovely table! Love the colors!…Christine
Wow this is wonderful! Definitely love the colors and she put together such cute details! Those sea turtle napkin rings are my favorite! Love the pelican with the shells below it. Great job! I need to do a seaside tablescape!
Such a fun sealife table! I love the color palette she chose, so pretty! Thank you for the tabletop love party!
I love that table setting! Great job, Sandra. Thanks for sharing it with us. The linens are gorgeous and I love how you’ve put together pieces from many different sources to create a cohesive theme filled with memories.
Thanks for sharing Sandra’s fabulous sea side table, it is very striking with all that color. So much to take in! Thanks for hosting, Susan.
Thanks for sharing the great tablescape – such interesting colors. Love it !
I love the colors and the whimsy! Her table just looks like Summer at the beach.
What a pretty table! So creative! I should really do better decorating my tables!!
This was such a fun table to tour! The blue and white striped teaware looks so similar to cake plates that I have by Noritake, called “Carnivale.” I’m planning a tablescape for them soon! 🙂 Thank you as always Susan, for hosting my all-time favorite link party… and to Sandra for sharing her fun table!
Love this tablescape. I own a parrot so I am a big bird person and try to work them into my summer tables capes. Do you happen to know where the pelicans came from on the table? I love that they’re white so they’d go with everything. I love your posts every week and have tried many of the products I would never have found if not for you. Thanks so much for taking your time to educate us!
Thanks so much, Victoria! Aww, that’s so wonderful that you have a parrot, such amazing, beautiful birds! I’m pretty sure Sandra found her pelicans in Gumps. I’m not sure if that was in person or online, but I think she said she has had them for a while.
