Thanksgiving Accents

I started with the entryway chest.  I swapped out the large striped MC (MacKenzie Childs) pumpkin with my MC turkey I bought a few years ago.

Everything else is the same with the fall garland I draped around the tray that’s hidden below and the little MC checkered pumpkins.



I changed out the pumpkin that was here with another turkey I already had. 

I added a bunch of miniature pumpkins on top of the raffia.



I edited the mantel by removing most of the pumpkins and gourds that I had there and then added the two pheasants.  
I’m already dreaming about Christmas decorating on the mantel.  It seems like everything happens so quickly from this point on!

I got my pheasants at Pier 1 a while back.  I’ve tried to use them in different ways each year. 

I rearranged the pine cone garland that I already had there and adjusted the remaining pumpkins.  I like to pretend the design is mimicking a forest floor. 

I didn’t change the tall arrangement that I introduced in an earlier post this fall. 

This new time change has me screwed up a bit.  It was dark by 6 pm and I had to take pictures with the indoor lights on.  We’re taking off in the morning for my Aunt’s funeral.  I’ll get a chance to see my mom,  sisters and cousins I haven’t seen in a long time.

  1. Everything looks so pretty. You have some awesome turkeys. Adding the MKC pumpkins is lovely. I might be adding a few to my cart. The pheasants look great how you displayed them. A pretty fall look for the upcoming Thanksgiving. Have a safe trip.

  3. Good Afternoon Liz!
    Oh I so agree with you everything does seem to move along so quickly now and a sense of urgency is in the air. We still haven't really even cooled off yet. We had one day where we thought we were going to get cool-to only return to 90. Love how you edited your mantle and the turkey is beautifully nestled among the mini pumpkins.
    Wishing you a lovely week,
    Jemma

  4. Such beautiful pieces on your table, Liz. Your turkeys are quite handsome and look lovely. I especially like how you arranged your mantel--stunning!
    I just changed out Halloween and now need to put Thanksgiving decor up before it's over. You are so right we are in fast forward now.
    Safe travels Liz. ♥

  6. Your Thanksgiving accents are so pretty, Liz. I love what you said about trying to emulate a 'forest floor'. and I think you have definitely achieved that!

    So sorry to hear about your aunt. Safe travels, my friend.

    Hugs,

  7. I'm sorry about your Aunt, Liz. I totally skipped right over Thanksgiving decorating this year. I have jumped right into Christmas. You always put together such beautiful vignettes. I LOVE the mantle and the pheasants!
