Give Thanks Thanksgiving Tablescape

“Give Thanks” to this spectacular seating for four Thanksgiving table. We simmered the design with autumn colors of Cranberry, orange, gold, yellow, & cream. With a hint of glitter, this tablescape is sure to sparkle during your holiday. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays, well after Christmas and I enjoy the atmosphere of family friends and FOOD. I wanted this year’s décor to be warm, comfortable, and inviting. Here are some of the posh details that brought my table to life.

Details

Much to my surprise, when I went to Dollar General I found these decorous brown linen napkins that fit right into the arrangement. The gold napkin rings also made a wonderful addition to the color scheme. This was a bonus buy because they napkin rings can also double as table accessories for Christmas décor. I dug deep into my closets and found cranberry colored placemats that I dressed the table with under gold chargers that occupied the dinnerware.


I adorned the table with voltive candles I purchased from Walmart, glitter Pumpkin cut outs from the dollar tree and glittery pumpkins from the Michael's craft store. Incorporate boxes and stands in different heights to add levels to your table. I brought a gift box and wrapped in burlap fabric that I purchased from Walmart. I used the same fabric to make a matching table runner to bring a rustic feel to my design. Adding the Harvest basket with lemons and loose fall leaves completes the look.

I wanted unique centerpiece that would resembled fall and the purpose of Thanksgiving, so I filled with red beans, brown rice, & orange voltive candles in various glasses and vases. Lastly, I purchased little pumpkin party favors that you can use to make one of a kind placecards for seating arrangements from the dollar store.


I was able to find inexpensive accessories from everyday retail stores such as Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Michaels, and Walmart. As you can see, you do not have to break the bank to make a fashion statement!
