Oct 17 Hosting: Thanksgiving Table Settings

Thanksgiving 2021 is just around the corner and it’s time to plan the perfect Thanksgiving table setting. While a lot of thought goes into planning your Thanksgiving menu, it’s also important to set a festive and welcoming mood with the perfect table scape. Whether you’re planning to serve a party of 12 or an intimate party of 2, a few well thought out touches will help create the perfect Thanksgiving mood. While it can be fun to upgrade or add to your serving ware, keep in mind that you probably don’t have to start from scratch. If you already have a great white dish set it will fit seamlessly into almost any setting.

Inspiration for this year’s Thanksgiving table setting recommendations came from thinking of Thanksgiving dinner as a celebration of harvest and autumn but also a time to begin ushering in the winter holiday season. Keeping that in mind I wanted a blend of gold, and deep browns, contrasting with and warming up some wintery greys and smoky glass. I also kept in mind that I wanted to find great items for your Thanksgiving table that were at a great sale price or of good value that you could use more than once. The set of 12 white dinner napkins are something that you will use again and again throughout the holiday season and are a worthwhile home entertaining item to invest in. Other items, like the pheasant feather centerpiece, may be something that is more tailored to serve as a wow factor for your Thanksgiving table.
