Psalms 107:1 (NIV)
It's been months since I shared a tablescape with you all, and if I'm being honest, I haven't actually put together a new tablescape in a while. I've had so many ideas rolling around in my head for summer & fall tablescapes, but I guess they'll have have to wait 'til next year!
However, I couldn't let November go by without sharing a past Thanksgiving tablescape or two
(before my blogging days).
I started with my go-to neutral tablecloth, & then warmed it up with shades of green, orange, & bronze.
Remember the turkey that is in my living room this year?
Last year it took center stage in my dining room!

I simply used a store-bought wreath to add some texture & color, & stuck the turkey right in the middle.
I then flanked either side with a big candleholder, which brought in more of the bronze color. To add a little more interest, I not only filled the bottom of the candle holders with glittery pumpkins & gourds, but I also surrounded them with larger pumpkins, gourds, & berries.
I grounded each place setting with a Gracious Goods charger, then followed it up with cream Gracious Goods dinnerware.
Alternating green & orange leaf plates are perfect for dessert & bring more color to each place setting.
For placecards, I simply purchased pears in shades of green and reddish-orange and used a straight pin to hold the name in place. The "torn" paper displaying the names keeps with the somewhat casual feel.
The double-layered napkins, as well as the napkin rings, were also alternated.
Some showed off the shiny, striped napkins & were held together with a multi-colored beaded napkin ring....
Okay, I'll let you in on a little secret.....these glittery gourd "napkin rings" aren't really napkin rings. I had purchased a few small boxed of glittery pumpkins & gourds (remember the ones in the bottom of the candle holders?), & these actually came with the boxes, holding them together! I couldn't bear to throw them away, so I turned then into napkin rings!
Gracious Goods goblets continue the look.
Happy Thanksgiving!
