Flag Day 2013

Happy Flag Day!

A festive flag day table.



I'm looking forward to lots of red, white and blue for the next

several weeks.  It starts on June 14th and ends a few days after July 24th.

Flag day, July 4th and Pioneer Day...fun, fun, fun!

A red, white and blue centerpiece...

Sunday Table 12

   

 

This table started off with only yellows and blues.

Originally, I had just the blue delphinium

and the small yellow Gerber daisies in the white pitcher.

 

{When we lived in our California base housing, 

I decorated the main living area in yellow and blue.}

Yellow and blue will always make me think of living in California.

Yellow and blue will always make me think of the start of summer.

 



 

Recently when I was walking through Trader Joe's,

I saw the bright bold peonies, and decided to bring some home.

I added them to our yellow and blue table.

 



 

I also pulled out my metal 'granny tray'... not exactly sure why I call it that.

Metal trays -- and metal TV trays -- and aluminum tumbler cups for that matter

make me think of my paternal grandparents.  

 



I'm not sure if I preferred the table in just yellow and blue,

or if I like the pop of color.

Either way, cheers to summer and pretty colors.

 

This table marks a dozen Sunday tables --

plus another half dozen or so holiday tables that I've blogged about.
