A Casual Thanksgiving Table!

A casual Thanksgiving table is the kind I love to sit at!  Holiday meals are always special but you can easily achieve a pretty setup without fancy decorations or fine tableware.  You can eliminate a lot of turkey-day stress by keeping the tabletop simple.  But that never means that your guests won’t think it’s fabulous!  Make it pretty with natural elements, mix-and-match dishes, and lots of love and your feast will be a hit!  A casual table where fine etiquette is not required will always create a relaxed atmosphere.  You might find your friends and family will linger long after the meal has ended.  Conversations around a table can lead to some of the finest memories.  So let’s make the season bright…

The best part…it’s so easy and inexpensive to make!  All you need is a low basket or crate to hold your selections of popped corn along side a few simple autumn elements.  Like most 2020 holidays so far, Thanksgiving might be smaller and more casual…but adding popcorn to the celebration is sure to delight everyone gathered around the table!  I’d love to share this mouth-watering, easy idea with you today!  So let’s set a festive, fall table with a…

Thanksgiving Table with a touch of Christmas!

November 19

We’ll be setting the Thanksgiving table next week…can you believe it?  Since the holiday is so late this year, I think it’s fair to say everyone is feeling the push to get going on Christmas.  But I just can’t go all out before our Thanksgiving feast is over…so this year, I’m blending the two!  It’s not my turn to host our extended family feast, but since we celebrate that meal on Saturday, I still have Thanksgiving Day to serve something festive to my family.  I’m definitely a wait-til-after-Thanksgiving Christmas decorator, but I think I found my new tradition!  By adding greens to my pumpkins and gourds, I found a blend that’s as easy as it is beautiful.  Let me share how I’m decorating this year and making it easier to transition to Christmas!

Colorful Thanksgiving Table!

November 7
8 Comments

Setting a colorful Thanksgiving table can be a fun and extra cheerful way to celebrate the holiday!  I LOVE to decorate with bright hues throughout this season.  After all, the autumn landscape is often speckled with plenty of vibrant color!  And in many areas you can still find a few flowers or greens in the garden to compliment a simple tablescape in rustic style!  Today I’d like to share some simple ideas for mixing and matching different styles and tableware to create a beautiful, custom table that will let your personality shine!  Shopping my house before I entertain always turns up favorite goodies I’ve forgotten about or haven’t used in a long time.  And if you’re lucky enough to have family or close friends who love to entertain…try shopping their house too!  You might find you can share decor for special occasions and help each other stretch a budget AND set a pretty tabletop!  This is exactly what I was able to do with my fall display.  So let’s set the Thanksgiving table…

serve up a colorful holiday!
