Create a stunning and Patriotic Fourth of July tablescape with a mix of red, white, and blue dishes from the Fantasy and Rua Nova collections.
Hello friends! The Fourth of July is just around the corner, and there’s nothing I love more than celebrating this patriotic holiday with family and friends. This year, I’ve created a festive and Patriotic Tablescape for the Fourth of July featuring red and blue dinnerware from the esteemed Portuguese company, Bordallo Pinheiro, which has been crafting exquisite pieces for 140 years.
I’ve mixed and matched pieces from the Fantasy Collection and the Rua Nova Collection to bring this red, white, and blue patriotic tablescape to life for our upcoming family gathering. Setting a pretty table in these vibrant colors is always a joy, and I’m thrilled to share the details with you!

The Patriotic Tablescape Place Setting
For each place setting, I started with a red charger plate from the Bordallo Pinheiro Fantasy Collection. On top of that, I placed an Indigo dinner plate from the Rua Nova Collection, followed by a dessert plate, also from the Fantasy Collection, to tie in the red. The layered effect of these stunning plates creates a visually appealing and patriotic look.
To complement the dinnerware, I used sapphire blue goblets which add an elegant touch to the table. The red-handled flatware brings in more of that vibrant red color, perfectly matching the charger and dessert plate.
For the base, I chose hyacinth chargers, adding a rustic element that ties in beautifully with the vintage waterpots and candlestick holders used in the centerpieces. The blue and white checkered cloth napkins add a classic, cozy feel to each place setting, making the table feel inviting and festive.
The Centerpieces
Creating the centerpieces was one of my favorite parts of setting up this Patriotic Tablescape for the Fourth of July. I used vintage Nepali waterpots as vases and arranged these beautiful, high-end faux flowers, greenery, and berries, adding a natural and lush look to the table. The center arrangement is a large, eye-catching centerpiece that creates height and draws attention to the center of the table.
To find the faux flowers, greenery, and berries I used to create this centerpiece, head over to my home decor shop Evolution Home Decor. I’ve linked them individually below.

ENGLISH BLUE HANGING TAPER CANDLES SET OF 2
The Blue Ranunculus Stem is from Hobby Lobby.
On either side of the main centerpiece, I placed two smaller waterpots that include red, white, and blue patriotic felt flags. To add an extra touch of Americana, I included felt red, white, and blue USA picks in the larger centerpiece.
For some added charm and color, I incorporated rustic candleholders with red and blue taper candles. The flickering candlelight enhances the overall ambiance, making the table feel warm and inviting.
Finishing Touches for a Patriotic Tablescape
To complete the Patriotic Tablescape for the Fourth of July, I used a red and white paper table runner from Hester & Cook, which adds a playful yet sophisticated element to the table. I also scattered some red glass mini salt and pepper shakers around the table, adding a touch of vintage charm and practicality.
Many of the items including all the faux flowers, greenery, and berries I used can be found in my online shop, EvolutionHomeDecor.com, and I’ve linked the rest of the items throughout the post and at the bottom.

Very nice Holly
what are the milk glass containers with lids on the table?
Thanks so much Judi! I use them as butter dishes!
Very pretty Patriotic table setting, Holly. I’ve never heard of Widow Maker heart attack?? I’ll look that up.. So glad to hear he is doing good!!
Thanks so much Nancy! I had heard of it before but didn’t know what type of heart attack it was until this happened to him. I just knew that most people who had them didn’t usually survive. He had some type of blood clot that caused a 100% blockage in his LAD artery which usually causes death. Somehow he survived thanks to our amazing neighbor, paramedics and an incredible cardiac team at the hospital. We are so grateful to them!
