My table for Thanksgiving this year is based on my rustic lighted pumpkin. (source: Aldi last year.) I added lace, flowers, leaves, candles, and more rustic pumpkins for the center of the table.
My place settings start with the woven circular place mat. More natural rustic elements to play with the shiny plates, crystal, and silverware. I used a wood charger and then the off-white plate with brown details. I topped the plate with a woven pumpkin.
I like the light woven placemats and white lace with colored leaves, and lighted pumpkin against the dark wood of the table.
In the corner on the wooden stand is a scarecrow and pumpkin.
A pleasing table to give thanks.
Thanks for visiting. To embrace this season of gratitude and kindness, I suggest we say thank you to someone today.

What a beautiful table for Thanksgiving!! I can’t believe you got that pumpkin at Aldi! Thanks for stopping over and liking my birthday banner!
Your pumpkin tablescape looks great, Carol. Pinning. Thanks for partying with us at Snickerdoodle.
Love the twiggy pumpkins Carol! It’s so important to thank you daily! I do it, even if it’s to my dear hubby for even the smallest of things. I am always asking him for ‘honey do’s’. I figure if I thank him, he will keep doing them for me. 🙂 Plus, I really do appreciate it. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
I agree gratitude and saying thank you are essential.

Loving the dark pumpkin with your choice of table/dishes, etc. And of course, lighted makes it even better. When the sun is so low, a house is dark even during the noon hours, and a little glow here and there, helps so much. Lovely, and so glad you used what you have—I’m really sick of the buy, buy, buy mentality in blog world! Grins, Sandi
I agree – most of us don’t need to buy new stuff at all.
