TIME FOR TEA

Give your tea party a Mad Hatter vibe with pom-poms and patterns galore! Hang fun paper decorations over the table, layer a bright cloth with a runner made from doilies and cover chair backs in fabric with bobble trim. Add jugs of flowers and treats on tiered stands for a classic afternoon tea feel. For similar fabric, try Voyage Maison. Party Pieces sells paper pom-poms

GARNISH WITH EDIBLE FLOWERS

Decorating party food with edible flowers is a fitting finishing touch for a summer spread. Scatter them over a show-stopping cake for an eye-catching centerpiece, float them in guests' arrival drinks, or use them to add a special flourish to salads. For safety, be sure to use those that are certified as edible; look at Edible Flowers by Monica Nelson (£29.95, Monacelli) or source from a specialist supplier, such as maddocksfarmorganics.com or finefoodspecialist.co.uk.

TIE ON PLAYFUL RIBBON STREAMERS

Multicolor ribbons tied to chair backs create a beautiful effect when fluttering in the breeze and bring a whimsical touch to an outdoor dining setting. French-style café chairs are an easy design to fasten them to and also give a relaxed feel. Pick shades that coordinate with your table linen and various widths for extra interest. You could tie in floral sprigs, too.
