With the warmer weather, I'm anxious to start enjoying meals out in our little cabana again. Today, I'm sharing some of the tablescapes I've created there in the past.
I hope you will tell me which one is your favourite.

Below is a grape-themed luncheon for four. This was before we got our new table/chair set but I did like the coziness of the round table we had back then.
I am not a big fan of melamine/plastic plates or acrylic glasses and no longer buy them as I prefer "the real thing" even for dining outside. However, I did have this set and liked the grape design on the plates and glasses.
The centerpiece is made up of a tall rectangular vase with a purple pillar candle inside. I surrounded it with faux greenery and grapes.
Below is our new patio furniture with a rectangular table and six chairs (only 4 shown).
This tablescape is a mixture of melamine and "real" plates in a brown/yellow and green colour combo.
We have neighbours (good ones!) close by on one side but....
...fortunately, no one has ever bought the property behind us in the 25 years we have lived here and we still have a lovely wooded area for our backyard view.
Below was a "Summer Whites" tablescape I created last summer thanks to inspiration from Cuisine Kathleen and her blog party last June.
I used my square white dishes with just a touch of colour in the hydrangea centerpiece.
Below, you will see "Christmas in July", a fun meme that Felecia at Playing with Dishes hosted last summer.
To really stress the "July" part of it, I created my tablescape outside in our cabana. I hauled out some of my Christmas dishes and decorations.
Can you see my "candelier" all lit up? I put some faux poinsettias around it for the occasion.
Here is a Summer Birthday BBQ we hosted for my sister-in-law last summer.
Plates and placemats in bright bold colours added to the festive mood.
Thanks for stopping by to look at my various tablescapes created in our little cabana. Which one was your favourite? Of course, I'm linking up to Tablescape Thursday hosted by Susan at Between Naps on the Porch.
