favorite Thanksgiving table ideas

Thanksgiving is only five days away, so this is the weekend to start planning, especially if you’re hosting! We always host a group of about nine for the big day. It’s all close family, so there’s not too much pressure with décor and cooking.  

I stick to our family favorites when it comes to the menu, and we all have certain dishes we can’t do without. Mashed potatoes with gravy, stuffing, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce and turkey... not sure I can pick just one that stands out above the rest. It's all about those combined flavors on the plate for me!  

When it comes to setting the table, I usually like to combine past looks I’ve done which works out great because I mix and match from tablescapes that were most memorable. I plan on setting my table on Sunday, so I’m going through photos today for inspiration. 

I like to gather elements first and then style from there. Here are some of my favorite Thanksgiving tablescape looks from the last several years for you to take a look at. What elements and tables stand out the most? 

Please stop by again next week for the final reveal of our Thanksgiving table. I do plan on using some pretty new napkin rings I received from Vagabond House and my favorite Serena & Lily napkins together as an accent on the dinner plates. From there, we’ll see...
