Since the weather has cooled a little, I set a under the sea table under the palapa. The theme all started with the cute jelly fish paper lanterns. I wanted to create a sea themed table. My husband told me, he had an idea for a tablescape. An aquarium table. Basically it was the same idea I was going for.
The fish make the table look like an aquarium. The table rod came in handy to hang the jellyfish paper lanterns and fish. I had most of the other accessories and tableware.
I used an aqua starfish tablecloth as a runner for the seashells and decor.
The napkin rings are seashells.The centerpiece is a tall glass cylinder that I added aquarium stones with plants. I tucked in an LED puck light for nighttime ambiance.
The chargers, plates and goblets were purchased years ago.
This angle you can see the hutch my husband built.
Below is the video I shot of the table. Enjoy!
Here's a few other looks with aqua.
I hope your temps are not too hot. We got a little break. In fact, today we had a few sprinkles.
Happy August.

How fantastical! Those jellyfish hanging from the table rod and all that color makes for a realistic under the sea look, Linda. Well done!
ReplyDeleteWe are still waiting for the ever elusive thing called rain.
Your ‘Under the Sea’ table is super creative for summer Linda! Love the lanterns hanging from the table rod, fish and glass cylinder with your LED light to mimic an aquarium! It’s especially beautiful illuminated at night. Stay cool and Happy August!
ReplyDeleteOut of this sea world! Wow..so cute Paul is interested also:) Kudos!
ReplyDeleteLinda, your under the sea table is magical. All of the color is amazing and creative. The jellyfish lanterns hanging from the table rod are the icing on the cake! Happy August and so glad you are experiencing cooler temperatures!

ReplyDeleteHow magical and pretty. I love the under the sea colors. They all pop and make it feel like you are really under the sea. You do fabulous tablescapes. Big hugs have a wonderful weekend. Kris
ReplyDeleteWow Linda! You've really outdone yourself this time! Your "aquarium" is fabulous! I love the night time lighting, so magical! I'm glad your temps have cooled, we have been in the high 90s for weeks, it's hard to even go outside!

ReplyDeleteHow fun is this table? So clever! I would so enjoy sitting here! Sadly it's been to hot here this summer to dine al fresco!
ReplyDeleteI love how it all comes together, especially with the lighting but I have to say it is the lanterns and the hanging fish that are totally rocking it for me. It takes me to a magical undersea land and I just adore it. Gorgeous, Linda, and such fun!
ReplyDeleteYou are the Queen of amazing tablescapes Linda! Truly magnificent, you add the perfect touches to the table!
ReplyDeleteAmazing. Very clever. We had a few sprinkles as well. Still very humid. Happy August . Summer is almost over yay.
ReplyDeleteHappy August, another amazing tablescape. I am a big fan of lighting. I'm glad you got a little break in the temperature and had a few sprinkles. We haven't dined alfresco much this summer at home as it has been humid and there is no breeze. At our lake cabin, the temperature is eight degrees cooler so we've been eating outdoors (if the bugs don't bother us lol).
ReplyDeleteVery fun to see in the daylight, you know how much I enjoyed your video!
ReplyDeleteHappy August Linda. What a beautiful table you decorated and I love that table your husband made. This table theme is perfect for summer. I'm glad it's cooled down for you. It's very hot here and I'm looking forward to the days of no humidity. I hope you have a nice week Linda.
ReplyDeletePerfect underwater table Linda. The jellyfish make it magical as the breeze moves them. LED lighting completes the scene. I love your creative ideas even if the hubby has the same it just shows that great minds think alike. Keep cool
ReplyDeleteViewing this in a larger size now on my computer. Even more stunning. You are indeed an artist when it comes to decor. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteThose jellyfish paper lanterns are so neat! I love this table setting. I am a sucker for anything aquarium/sea/blue.. :)
ReplyDeleteI caught this on Instagram, Linda and I thought it was so lovely I had to pop by and see it!! Just beautiful. I think it's one of your best!
ReplyDeleteHow fun and beautiful Linda.Those jellyfish set the mood and everything else followed. Every detail is so well thought out. It would be a joy to sit at that table.
ReplyDeleteLinda, you have such a beautiful array of colorful collections to set up gorgeous displays. I love all the color and how you put it all together. xxoJudy
