Thanksgiving Table Setting

Now that Halloween has past, are you thinking about how you will set the table for Thanksgiving?

I've been playing with a neutral color scheme with touches of gold after finding an antique gold-rimmed goblet set an an estate sale a few weeks ago.  I thought I'd share some tablescape ideas that are both rustic and glam that will hopefully inspire you this upcoming Thanksgiving...

I always start my tablescapes with an idea that I want to use for the centerpiece(s).  In this case, I had just found two tall glass domes that I simply propped up on a pair of ruffled cake plates that I already owned.  I made the small bouquets under the glass by filling small iron urns with nature-inspired materials like cotton, pheasant feathers, petite pinecones, and walnuts (glued to floral picks).  My girls love finding acorns and always bring them to me to use for decorating. I simply scatter them throughout the table or they look great in glass vases with candles.

 Since I already owned the gold chargers, I pulled them out and paired them with my cream dishes and added a simple glittered leaf (from the Christmas ornament section at Walmart) to dress up the napkins.

I fell in love with the brown-striped burlap ribbon from Hobby Lobby and used it for table accents on each end of my long trestle table as well as lots of small white pumpkins, pinecones, raffia, and wooden candlesticks...

Now it's just all ready for the feast!
