For the centerpiece I used my white lantern from IKEA and filled the bottom of it with some black smooth rocks and a white tall candle and placed a large hydrangea leaf on the top. I was going to do more but I had to hurry.I just can’t tell you how much I love Lime Green! Even as a kid I have always loved Lime Green and Fuchsia together. See the black underneath the plates that is my fun secret….it is a gold charger turned up side down! Ya gotta love that!
If only it were cooler outside! It looks amazing but it is hot and humid out here overlooking the pool!
I grilled some yummy chicken for dinner! So easy…olive oil, Costco’s all natural seasoning (oh my gosh we put this on everything!!), kosher salt and fresh herbs from the garden. It was moist and deeelish!
Of course some locally grown watermelon! It is sooo sweet and full of juicy goodness!
I placed the watermelon on this cute little white platter that I bought a while ago from Tai Pan trading in Utah. I have also used those little white porcelain balls with letters on them for placecards…You find your initial for where you are seated.
I layered the plates as you can see….the white dinner plates with the black lettered words all around the edge followed by the lime green salad plate and then the dessert plate is the smallest sized plate….. white plates with black lettered words.

I just love those dishes! The touch of lime green looks great. I am realizing with surprise what a great "neutral" it really is. The fresh fruit pops out against this pretty setting.
Lime green goes with so many colors…this combo is very pretty. Love those plates.
looks fabulous, love those dishes~
I love lime green, it's also my dining room decor, and it's the cover of my lap top, and my cell phone…it's so versitile!
Thank you for sharing!
Your fabric in your tablecloth really set the tone for a very sophisticated tablescape. You did a great job, and the dishes are indeed wonderful. Thank you for sharing your charming design. Cherry Kay

Couldn't agree more in loving the colour scheme – I used the same one last week for TT! Love how you made the floral napkin rings – adds such a pop of the colour to the table!
Yummy looking chicken and watermelon!

I love the lime green too. I don't think I knew it even existed except in neon from the 80's. The fabric on the table really brings it all together.
I think your tablescape looks amazing! I love the fabric you chose for the tablecloth, and the napkin rings you made, too! 🙂
I hope that it cools down for you a little, and that you have a good night!
Loved your color combo, made for a very pretty summer table. Your napkin rings were so cute too.
all the food looks yummy too!
Making me hungry! lol
