Simple Thanksgiving Table Setting

 

 

I am beyond excited for Thanksgiving this year!

 

I thought I would share some of my ideas with you all in hopes that you may get a few ideas of your own.  You know, in case you are in the same kind of  tizzy.  🙂 (That IS a word, right?)

I am definitely a color person and I have been getting bored with my regular old white plates as of lately.  I decided to go to Homegoods and “look” around.

However, I had a Starbucks in my hand and I can never just “look” when I have a Starbucks in my hand.  All I will say is stores who have Starbucks in their stores know what they are doing.  It’s like having waitresses serve you drinks when you are gambling in Vegas.  The more you drink, the more you spend.  It’s NO DIFFERENT with coffee.  You are high on caffeine and BUY BUY BUY!  Well, at least I do.  LOL!

I fell in love with this blue and really built the color palette around this one plate.  All the plates were $4.99 ea. at Homegoods.

Now, my centerpiece will be a little different come Turkey Day.  I plan on lining mason jars down the center.  Some with flowers and some with candles.  I just didn’t have any flowers or candles on hand, so I thought this would look better than empty mason jars.

These Turkey salt and pepper shakers might get lucky enough to stay though……

I definitely have quite an eclectic taste, as you can see.  I still get all googly eyed when I look at my new chandelier.

I firmly believe in using lots of natural looking elements like Burlap.  I found this Burlap Runner at Target a while back for about $17.00.  I love it because it is so versatile.  It usually stays on the Coffee Center, but I’m going to use it here for the dinner.

I know you are probably thinking to yourself by now, where are the glasses?  The answer to that is I haven’t figured that part out yet.  If I don’t by the actual day, then I guess we will be drinking out of Solo Cups.  😉

Or, I guess I could just toss the flowers out of the mason jars and use them instead…….. RIGHT?

So, what kind of table setting are you doing this year?  I would love to know!

XOXO,
