Thanksgiving is the time of the year where it's cold, possibly rainy, the leaves are on the ground and beautiful colors, a time to give thanks for all that you and loved ones have, but it's also one of those holidays where you serve a feast at your table!
Setting a dining table is something I look forward to when I have a home and cook my first Thanksgiving meal. But how do you set the table to not have clutter on the table if you're trying to put food on the table too!?? A lot of the settings I've seen on websites and in magazines seem to have the food kept elsewhere so not take away from their design and setup.
You can set up your table with leaves, Thanksgiving themed decor, branches, nature themed items, or just go with the colors of Thanksgiving and fall. Oranges, browns, dark greens are all beautiful together. Even if you just focus on the colors, you'll still be able to bring the Thanksgiving feel to your table!
You can take these colors as your inspiration for a brighter table! |
Pumpkins aren't just for Halloween! The small pumpkins could be used to decoration, to put on top of the plates, or make a slit in the top of them for name cards! |
I liked the idea of having pictures of loved ones as the centerpiece, and the fresh pair with the pin in it for the name card holder. |
Creative name card holders can really bring your table together and as you can see, the possibilities are endless!! |
The name card holders at a table are what your guests see when they first sit down so they are vital to coordinating with your table. When they first come in, they will look at your table, but when they're sitting at the table for the big feast, they'll have more time for look at every detail!!
ENJOY AND GIVE THANKS!
