I'm a creature of habit. Which is why last week's weird blogging schedule was... well, weird. And now Thanksgiving is on Thursday so it's going to be yet another week of weird-ness [but the good kind!]. Anyway, I've decided to embrace the season and dedicate my posts to all things Thanksgiving. Today I found amazing tablescapes via Pinterest to inspire you as you prepare your table for the great feast!
This one is my favorite. You know I love incorporating natural elements into seasonal decor, and this table is a perfect example of that. So, so pretty. [Where will the food go, you ask? Who cares... oooo & awww over your table first, then figure out that little detail of the food later :)]
Mis-matched china. [love] Simple, gorgeous and edible name cards. [love, love] Easy table decor that looks incredible. [love, love & love!]


Alright, you have noticed that I love neutrals- but Thanksgiving is a great reason to pull-out the bright reds and deep oranges without making any long term commitments. This royal red Thanksgiving table is so festive, beautiful and cheery!
Speaking of neutrals... here's a gorgeous table that is simple and elegant. I really do love it. [And I think this one even has room to set a turkey!]
Here's a great example of keeping it simple with natural elements and then adding the drama with candles. BTW, I have this little obsession with leaves... so this table is extra perfect in my eyes!
What a great, simple centerpiece. So pretty. [and I could even do this last minute... since basically everything I do is last minute, that's a big plus for me!]
Of course I had to include a few kids' tables!
This one is my favorite because it's super cute; however, it's also super practical and fun. And really folks, let's face it... all the kids care about is fun anyway. I love the drawn-on placemats too, what a cute idea [and it's the only placemat that won't end-up on the floor!].
Check-out this turkey centerpiece! So cute. I'm pretty sure that I'm not patient enough to make it, but this popcorn turkey is so adorable and really is a good idea for keeping the kiddos occupied until the real turkey is ready.
Ok. This one is obviously a snapshot straight out of a mother's imagination of what Thanksgiving "should" look like. In real life those sails would be knocked off the table in no time. And you can see that the kid in the green is about to rip his adorable little Pilgrim hat off [and he's gettin' paid to keep it on, so our kids' hats don't stand a chance!]. Despite all of the obvious "not gonna happen" moments shown here... I still love it! So cute :)













The first 2 pics are my favorites...and of course, the last one is the cutest:) I am not hosting Thanksgiving this year (one of my siblings is) but I appreciate the sentiments conveyed in a table setting - it creates the tone for the meal. Thx for the inspiration - some day...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table settings! Really enjoyed this article. Everyone should make their home beautiful.
