One of my favourite things about this table is that not everything is new. I paired vintage green glass dishes, a blue dinner plate I’ve owned for years, my favourite lemon dress, and a handful of new finds. Beautiful tables don’t happen because everything matches—they happen because everything works together.

Create Your Own Lemon-Inspired Table
Whether you’re decorating a small balcony, a backyard patio, or a dining room table, you don’t need to buy everything at once. Start with a few key pieces, mix them with items you already own, and build a look that reflects your own style.
I’ve gathered the products I used, along with coordinating finds, to help you recreate this fresh Mediterranean-inspired table. Mix patterns, layer natural textures, and don’t be afraid to combine vintage pieces with new purchases.
