If you're planning on having a big, family reunion style picnic, here are some easy ways to decorate for large parties. You can create a beautiful setting without a lot of time or expense. Drape white rectangle tablecloths over the picnic tables and place vintage pillar buntings down the length of the table. These buntings are meant to hang vertically, but they can also double as table runners! Dress up the picnic tables by hanging cloth vintage Americana bunting on each end of the tables.
Layer each place setting by stacking blue gingham plates on top of red dinner plates and white scalloped chargers. You could also alternate by stacking small blue plates on top of red gingham dinner plates.
Place red and blue patriotic paper straws inside mason jars for a festive touch! Red gingham napkins are the perfect fit for this table and red, white and blue cutlery.
Fill galvanized tall pots with fresh flowers and tuck few mini American flags inside the pots. Nothing like a bouquet of beautiful summer flowers on a picnic table!
