Dads and Grads Tablesetting

This month, we’re taking some time to celebrate some of the important people in our lives. For the month of June, we’re celebrating Dads and Grads! Father’s Day is coming up on June 21st, but for this entire month, students are graduating and moving on to the next chapter of their lives! It’s an entire month to celebrate, and what’s better to celebrate them than with a party! We created a versatile table design for the month of June. One that can be used for both Father’s Day and Graduations! Show how much you care and create a beautiful setup!
Laid out on the table on the left is everything we used to throw this simple design together. We began with a Navy Pintuck Tablecloth as the base, and then used a Black Satin Chevron Runner accent on top. When using a round table, you may opt to use an overlay as well. After that is placed, we created the centerpiece with two sizes of our block vases. We have the small square vases and a long rectangle vase. We used Black Chevron Ribbon to accent the vases.

Atop the vases lie some Dahlia Kissing Balls in Lime. The hanging decoration inside the base was made from printed card stock and taped together onto some burlap cord. This can be switched out depending on what you’re celebrating. Here we have an example of a Grad version of the hanging vase decoration. This was then pinned onto the kissing ball’s foam interior and placed on top of the vase.

Finally, the table setting was put together with an Apple Green Napkin folded at the base. The same Black Chevron Ribbon accent was placed on top of the napkin for a more interesting effect. A lime green charger was then used with our dinnerware and utensils. A napkin is expertly folded into a shirt that will impress any dad, you can see instructions on how to fold this napkin design here. Holding a party for a grad? Don’t fret, we have that covered as well! Replace the Folded Shirt Napkin with a Grad Hat Napkin. It’s just easier to make, and just as impressive!
