5 Unique Ideas for Your Thanksgiving Table
November 9, 2018
Thanksgiving is one of the most beautiful times of year. Decorating your fall table is quick and easy and provide you and your guests with one more thing to be thankful for.
Delightful Details
If you’re only looking to make small, elegant changes to your table this year, focus on the details! Add a mini gourd or a cinnamon stick to each place setting or use a ribbon to tie each set of silverware together. Pro Tip: If you serve hot-cocoa or coffee at the end of your meal, the cinnamon stick is perfect for taking any festive fall drink from tasty to absolutely delicious.
Keep it Simple
There is always elegance in simplicity. While your table is packed with holiday treats, less is more when it comes to decorating. White pumpkins paired with white candles will still stand out, then add some pine sprigs for a pop of color.
Love in the Layers
Use multiple layers to add dimension to your table. Start with a table runner of your choice, berry garland and leaves for a base, pumpkins, gourds or cornucopias on top. Accent with pinecones and flameless candles.
Switch up the Traditional Color Schemes
If you’ve been overloaded with fall colors this year and want something to really stand out, decorate your table with colors other than the typical red, green and orange. As the most popular favorite color, blue is the next best choice to provide a gorgeously sophisticated setting. Pro Tip: Use blue vases, candlesticks and napkins but embellish with chocolate brown pinecones instead of flowers to really make the blue pop.
Accent Tones
Another way to make your table really pop this season is to add gold accents. Gold cutlery, napkin rings, and gold candlesticks give the table a cohesive theme and a touch of elegance. This adds the perfect contrast to a white or neutral table cloth and serve as the statement piece of your table. If gold isn’t your style, try silver or copper!
