My Thanksgiving Table

16 years ago

Minus the silverware, I'm just too tired, but wanted to get a pic tonite, as it will be too hectic tomorrow.

    Wish I was there. Very pretty, Yach. I especially love the candles in the goblets and how you did the napkins.
    I have also saved your centerpiece photo for our Album.

    hugs and have a wonderful Thanksgiving,

    Happy Thanksgiving, Yachter. Everything looks just great, I'm loving all the neat turkey figurines everyone has found. Are your pretty goblets brown or burgandy? And the plaid on your runner is neat too. Love it all, hope you have a wonderful day--don't work too hard, be sure to take a deep breath and just enjoy the smiles on all the happy faces around your table--I know you work really hard to make the day perfect for everyone.

    I got so excited I hit a button and wiped out my whole post!

    YOU GOT IT GOING ON!!!

    Yacht, I'm jealous! That turkey centerpiece is sooooo pretty. I LOVE how you presented your napkins. And the colors of the bows and flowers pull the color right out of the centerpiece and runner and brings it all together BEAUTIFULLY!!

    I am SERIOUSLY wanting your glasses!!! They go so well with your placemats. Target had all different colors back in the summer. I picked up the red and put them in my basket. Before I left I went to put them back because I didn't want to spend the money and DD said, "No Mom. Don't put them back. Buy them if you want them." I'm sure glad I listened to her because that was the last time I've seen that style in any color, anywhere.

    Soooo.... If I came to your house I would whine to borrow your's!!!

    I know your GKIDS are ohhhing and ahhhing over this one. I sure am.

    I have the same style chargers in a bronze color on my table now! But, I'm sure you found a great price for your's while I paid retail at Burlington Coat Factory. If we lived close I would be begging to tag along with you to the yardsales. I'll have to remember how good the placecards look on the corner of them and steal.. I MEAN ..borrow that idea from you!! Did you print your own placecards or buy them like that? They are perfect.

    I love the mood-lighting with the candles and how the light from above reflects on everything.

    Of all of your tablesscapes, I think this is my all time favorite. It is elegant, floral, rustic, romantic and you still have room for some serving dishes if you chose to bring them to the table. You won't have to be jumping up and down.

    You were right to frame your pictures. I think I would IRL take some 8X10s and frame them to use as decorations in the fall in future years. Shucks no, a poster would be better.

    Uhhhmm... On second thought... That turkey centerpiece really doesn't look very good at all. And I know you've run out of storage space. So.... just send it to me and I will store it for you. OK? OK. LOL

    Have fun today. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all of your family, Sweet-Cheeks.

    Oh how pretty! I love the square chargers, don't think I've ever seen any like those. Your colors really knock it up a notch with those luscious ruby red goblets.

    Enjoy the day!

    Yachter, Wow, you did wonderfully! Your table is warm and inviting, I love that you have your wood table exposed instead of using a tablecloth, all the warm browns of the wood contributes to the overall feeling to the colors of the season along with the plaids and flowers.

    The centerpiece is great too, is it a clay type of material that the turkey is made of? Again, I love the subdued color, it fits in so well with your color scheme. I love the glasses too, I must have those in 4 or 5 different colors, but I am not sure I have them in that rich chocolate color, I am jealous :)

    Your family so fortunate to have you as a mom, you are truely a wonderful caring person and friend, I am glad to "cyber" know you! I hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
