If you're anything like me, once Thanksgiving is over, you want
to kick pumpkins to the curb. In any case, I still wanted to share the table
that I had for Thanksgiving. This year I actually set two tables, but with all
of the activity of Thanksgiving Day, only had the opportunity to photograph
one. I hope you enjoy it as much as my guests did.
As you can see, I swapped out my more rustic looking turkey from my Neutral Thanksgiving Tablescape for the ceramic turkey from Crate & Barrel as a part
of my centerpiece. Easy.
The white turkey plates are among my favorites; I wish I would have gotten more
than four. These are years old and from Pottery Barn. They work great as salad
plates or sandwich plates when I serve a turkey sandwich along with a hot bowl
of turkey noodle soup after the big day.
If you look carefully you can spot the corncob candles from my last tablescape.
Here they are in a pair of my favorite rustic candleholders of pilgrims, perfect
for Thanksgiving.
The glass turkey tureens are from William-Sonoma; I have had these for 20 years
or more. At the time that I got them they were affordable, but they no longer
are, so I am really pleased to have these.
The flatware with the bamboo handles is from eBay. A fun find, and I use these
a lot.
You'll see the familiar brown spice route plates from Pier 1 as the dinner
plate, and the salad/sandwich/appetizer plate in gold on top of it. These are
among my favorite plates, as they are perfect for layering; you will see the
brown ones again in a holiday table setting coming up soon.
The pitcher and salt and pepper shakers I've had a long time as well, and they
are from Fitz & Floyd. I love the look on the turkey’s face as he peers
over the shoulder of the Pilgrim reading the recipe book. Both the salt and
pepper shakers and the pitcher add a fun bit of whimsy to the holiday table.
