Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving dolls! I can't believe it's already that time. The last year has surely flown by and I am thankful for so much that has happened. While we are all giving in to our cravings and eating more than our fair share, I wanted to remind you that sometimes it's not about the party but about the people who share in the celebration with you. Remember to give thanks for all the blessings in your life and don't take for granite the wonderful people that embrace you everyday. After all, that is what today is all about. So, whether you are spending it surrounded by those you love most or simply thinking of them on this wonderful day, remember that we each have so much to be thankful for and we shouldn't focus on the bad but the good in our lives. I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing day and remember to give thanks for that which is most important to you!

Give Thanks

Thanksgiving is just a short week away, and I've got my table all planned out.  This year I'm going with a simplistic rustic feel. Thanksgiving is the ultimate holiday to go rustic in my book. A centerpiece of branches is perfect for guests to hang what they are thankful for on. I've laid out felt leaves in the middle of the table along with a silver sharpie so each guest can take one and write what they are thankful for and hang it on the branch. Somewhere towards the end of dinner, you can pick a leaf off and read what it says. I plan on setting up the meal as a buffet but by tieing guests silverware with a piece of twine they won't have to worry about carrying that on top of their already full plates. Keep the colors fall like and neutral using reds, oranges, and browns and whites. What I love about decorating for Thanksgiving, is you don't have to look farther than your back yard for all the items you need! How will you be decorating your table this year?

Give Thanks Inspiration

Thanksgiving is just a couple short weeks away and I'm starting to get all my ducks in a row for the holiday. The next box on the list I need to check is table decor. There are so many ways to go, but Thanksgiving is one of those holidays where I like to keep it simple and rustic. I'm planning a big table shoot for this weekend and wanted to share my inspiration behind the table with you! I'm thinking a branch centerpiece from which guests can hang leaves stating what they are thankful for, place settings showcasing silverware tied with twine and escort cards featuring pumpkins. I can't wait to share the rest of my ideas and the final product with you next week. What do you have planed for your Thanksgiving table decor?
