Thanksgiving Dining With An Organic and Woodland Touch (T)

I am joining 20 other bloggers for a Thanksgiving Day tablescape blog-hop hosted 
by Chloe of Celebrate & Decorate.  We are all linked together and you can find everyone's post at the bottom.

Welcome to my Thanksgiving Dining with an Organic Touch!

I added some woodland creatures like the golden pheasants. 

Squirrel accented planters were used and I filled them with dried Limelight Hydrangeas surrounded with fresh leaves from my ornamental cabbage plant that was out in the garden.  

I wove the garland made with woodland things like twigs, pine cones, leaves and berries through the center.



I chose the purple placemats to coordinate with the color of the hydrangeas and to enhance the 2nd layer leaf shaped placemats.

Some turkeys in the shape of Pilgrim Turkey Salt & Pepper shakers!


 I chose my crackle stemware from Pier 1 which have a nice light amber tone to them.

Salt & Pepper Turkeys from Pier 1 a few years ago.



The dishes from Williams Sonoma are called Plymouth. 

I made a fantail shaped napkin that I was inspired by from Mary @ Home Is Where the Boat Is 
This napkin has an embroidered wheat pattern so I turned it to show that off.  This style napkin fold works either direction.

Everyone enjoys seeing the decorative arrangements and since we often serve buffet style from the kitchen area I can leave everything as is on the table.  

Thank you for visiting and I hope you'll take time to visit the others for all their Thanksgiving Day tables at the links below!

  1. Just beautiful Liz...from the golden pheasants and the squirrel planters to Plymouth turkeys! I love how you filled your planters with the purple tipped hydrangeas and ornamental cabbage leaves. The plum and leaf placemats frame your Plymouth turkeys beautifully and really make them pop on the table. Thank you for the shout out on the fantail napkin fold. I’m thankful to be joining you for this blog hop. ♥

  4. Liz, this is a classically and beautifully styled Thanksgiving table. And wow! Those plates are truly majestic on your table. I really like the pheasants too. I am a textile lover so the layering appeals to me, and works beautifully to bring out the colors of the floral arrangements. That crackle glass from Pier 1 has always appealed to me too - reminds me of WV Blenko. I have a few pieces of it also. Very happy you've joined us for this collection.

  8. Liz your tablescape is warm and welcoming! I love your color theme, so rich and pretty. The golden pheasants caught my eye immediately...you know I am from Kansas and pheasants are abundant in the midwest....(none here in SW Florida). I wish I had purchased the crackle stemware when I purchased my amber crackle water glasses from Pier 1 several years ago, as yours are stunning. I enjoy all the different styles of table decorating at these hops, as there is a take away for everyone, and yours is no exception.

  12. Liz, you always so cleverly mix and match to create inviting tablescapes and centerpieces. Where does one find a squirrel planter? Want one! And the DIY garland --- what do you use to thread, tie it all together with?
