Can you all believe that Thanksgiving is tomorrow?! It’s been a blast creating ideas for the holiday table this month, and today we’ve got one more stunner to share (plus a delightful table from a creative friend later this afternoon!) For this setting, we were inspired by the shapes and hues of falling leaves…
To create a classically elegant look, we used traditional gold-rimmed china topped off with these gorgeous gold leaf dessert plates. Floral designer Amy Bodle from Merveille created the luscious centerpiece overflowing with fall flowers, berries & leaves gathered from a neighborhood walk (don’t you love the idea of foraging for flowers?) And the gilded artichokes & pomegranates peeking out take this arrangement over the top…

All of your presentations are gorgeous…do you have a magazine, or just this blog? You rank right up there with Martha Stewart!
What a lovely post! Thanks so much for bringing me on board for such a creative, and seasonal project! Happy Thanksgiving!
Beautiful table!! After I saw your place card tutorial last week, you inspired me to do it for our tables. Thank you!
