Summer is on its way, which means it's time to start planning your sunny tablescape. After rolling out her new collection for Magnolia, Joanna Gaines showcased her favorite indoor and outdoor decor trends for summer. When it comes to Joanna Gaines' top tips for welcoming summer to your home, she's all about playful motifs and timeless patterns. She recently highlighted her favorite items at the silos, namely fruit-themed decor and vintage-inspired textiles.

Gaines told her Instagram followers: "Nothing screams summer like strawberries, peaches, and this adorable gingham." In the video, she dons a gingham apron while showcasing artificial peaches and a bouquet of wild strawberries. With these key items, she was able to create an adorable summer table display. The arrangement featured an earthy color palette with blue and green gingham linens, contrasted by the bright, decorative summer fruits. Gaines has officially proven that flowers aren't the only way to design a stunning table centerpiece. 

While you can source Gaines' favorites on her Magnolia website, there's also a few ways to get the look at a lower price point. You can purchase these Voschoix Artificial Strawberry Branches and create a fun arrangement with filler branches and flowers, or opt to display the strawberries on their own. These Palonmy Artificial Peach Branches are a highly-rated alternative for Gaines' peachy bouquet. Last but not least, grab a set of sky blue gingham linens like these PurpleEssences Mini Gingham Check Dinner Cloths. These are all affordable and stylish summer decor ideas that can be easily swapped out after the season.

When it comes to decorating with fruit at home, you don't have to limit yourself to just strawberries and peaches. If you love a more Mediterranean look, try citrus-inspired branches with lemons or oranges. Rather than contrasting the warm-toned fruits with blue and green gingham, you can also create a more monochromatic look by matching the fruit-themed display to the color of the checkered textiles. Gaines' concept provides a charming starting point for sweet and summer-forward table decor.
