Thanksgiving… only a few days away. Wow. I remember last year when I set our homemade table outside to make it comfortable for the whole family to sit together. I love how it all turned out and the little cookie/candy turkeys are always fun! (see last year’s post here)
This year a lot of our family will be elsewhere so we’re keeping it super simple. That’s not to say I didn’t use the design I created last year for a table that might inspire you in your celebration this year. 😀
Below are some photos of the table my mother and I put together for a contest we wanted to enter. It was so last minute but I love the little touches we added to the settings and especially the little rosettes to the chairs. We like simple and kept it that way, using burlap for the runner and a nontraditional lavender table cloth. Instead of the usual pumpkins we used pomegranates, pears and persimmons as the main items in the centerpiece. I hope some of it will help inspire you to do some crafty things at your table. Oh, and the “because we’re family” printable design is available for next to nothing in my etsy shop. Feel free to hop on over there! (here)
I wish you and your family the best Thanksgiving yet.
