In this post – a Farmhouse Patriotic Table Setting for Fourth of July and Independence Day Decorations
I love setting tables – especially for holidays but I find that frequently patriotic tables appear too kitschy in my opinion.
For this patriotic table I was inspired by the antique transfer ware plates that usually sit in the cabinet or hanging on the walls.
This patriotic table has a little more muted colors of the flag – light reds and pinks replace the bold red that is usually present.
I chose peonies for this table, because one they are my favorite flower, and two, they kind of reminded me of fireworks!
A trio of goblets (for red wine, white wine, and water if you are going super formal) also echo the red, white and blue on our flag.
Vintage zinc lanterns are perfect for this farmhouse patriotic table.
Yes, the transferware plates are there for looks – the real plate that everyone eats off of is the scalloped edge white plate below – a new find from Aerin for Williams Sonoma.
You can create a patriotic table that has simple elegance – I kept it less formal by using burlap chargers and leaving out the table cloth!
This table can easily be translated for outdoor dining as well.
I’ve included sources for you for the new items – the rest are all antique or vintage or I cannot find the source!

Hopefully this table inspired you to create a beautiful patriotic table in your home too.
