Every year when Autumn begins, we are so excited for Halloween and all the festivities that the month of October brings and when it ends, somehow Christmas pops up everywhere and Thanksgiving is brushed aside. Even more, the amount of Thanksgiving decorations is quite sparse in the stores. This holiday seems to get overshadowed by Halloween and Christmas, and I can understand since I do love both of those holidays so much! But it has always been important for me to not let Thanksgiving go unnoticed and unappreciated, isn't that the point of the day anyway, to show appreciation?! So this year I created a printable collection that allows us to show how "thankful" we are for all of the blessings we have in our lives.
I created a very simple, elegant, and natural design so that I could take an earthier look this year. This design has a lovely pumpkin motif, but I also created a collection with a turkey motif for those who want to really celebrate "turkey day"! The banner featured here simply states "Thankful" so that we can be reminded of all to give thanks for this year.....and we have so much!
Each place setting has a menu card outlining everything that is being served for dinner. There are also little mini chocolate covered Oreos as a sweet treat to get the guests palate started. Then as a thank you party favor, each place setting has a large chocolate Covered Oreo with a tag that says "Thankful for you" so each person knows that they are also loved and appreciated.
And of course what table setting would be complete without water bottles adorned with coordinating labels to wash down all the delicious food and goodies!
It doesn't take much to dress a table for Thanksgiving, but it is the little things that go a long way....both in decorating and in life! So this year appreciate the little things in life, sometimes they are what make life BIG!
