Thanksgivings come in all shapes and sizes. Ours is usually intimate and unfussy. There is a lot of food on the table and not much room for anything else.
However, we have daydreams about bigger celebrations -- ones where we entertain more than just immediate family. So we're collecting natural tabletop decor ideas. Bonus: These options are generally inexpensive too!
Start with AT:LA's 10 Cheap and Easy Ideas for Decorating the Table. Fruit, succulents, and gourds are all discussed.
Then, check out AT:SF's Roundup of Place Card Holders. (We especially like the wine cork idea).
How about these cork napkin rings? You can make them yourself.
Cloth napkins are environmentally smart -- and they can add interest and color to the table. We really like this Blue Prairie Flower set from Etsy seller Yunny.
Kids will love putting this one together. Martha Stewart has 46 more ideas where that came from. Surprised?
How are you decorating your table this Thanksgiving?
