Easy Thanksgiving Entertaining Ideas

I love all the holidays, but Thanksgiving and Christmas are my favorites.  That’s when we get all the family together for a great meal with tons of laughter and fun. I love setting a pretty table for my guests. Here are some Easy Thanksgiving Entertaining Ideas.

Sometimes that can seem a little daunting, so I thought I would share how to pull a table together with things you already have.  To me, that is the best kind of table because I can make it kind of fancy or really casual, whatever mood I am in. This table is a little on the more formal or fancy side.  Nothing over the top, but extra pretty for the Holiday.

Looking through my stash I found all the things I needed to create several different tables.  I wanted this one to be pretty but simple.

I started with a simple runner and then added an assortment of pumpkins.  I used a mix of gray and white with one black one for added interest.  My dining area is part of the living room so I wanted to keep the same color scheme of gray and white that I had in the living area.  I sprinkled a few faux floral picks under the pumpkins for some added interest.

I used my gold chargers and gold flatware for each place setting.  I added a simple white plate and a two-toned gray napkin.  The gold etched wine stems add a bit of glam to the setting.  Of course, there will be wine, so I added a pretty bottle of rose.

These pretty crystal candlesticks came from Goodwill years ago. Goodwill is a great place to look for table accessories and always at a fabulous price.  If you collect a few basics you can always set a pretty table for any occasion.

Use what you have and think outside the box to create the perfect table every time.

I like how it turned out.  Nothing over the top, but pretty enough for a Holiday Gathering.
