Well, if you are like me and love to deck out your table in crazy splendor, then we’ve got you covered. We’ve compiled some great inspiration from other fantastic bloggers across the web who really know how to do Thanksgiving up right! Check it out!
Natural & Organic
Left / Eucalyptus, sage, olive wood, citrus still on the branches, a thick jute styled table runner and so much more. So simple and stunning, especially when paired together in Jen’s beautiful dinning room.
Right | Country Living took kraft paper to the next level, creating personalize placemats for each guest. Simple vases of mixed greenery zigzag between tall tapper candles and votives. How lovely, right?
Left / Erin Hiemstra of Apt. 34 has truly mastered the look of organic simplicity here with soft blue-grey tones throughout the room, gold silverware and soft white linen. A light and airy arrangement adorns the center of the table.
Right / There’s so much to be said about this look! I love the simplicity and airy feel the room has. A mixture of vintage chairs, pheasant feathers in massive display and soft, off-white table settings. This room really pops.

Dark & Dramatic

Right / Lately I’ve been obsessing over everything copper, so the moment I saw Lindsey Brunk’s stunning tablescape, my heart was happy. Her little detail of handwritten placecards is fantastic.
Farmhouse Feel
Left / Lauren Conrad took basic items, such as pumpkins, gourds and greenery (which can be found at most grocery stores) and created a sophisticated and fun tablescape. Smaller pumpkins were hollowed out to make serving bowls.
Right / Kristen from Ella Claire nailed it with this breathtaking tablescape. Heirloom pumpkins, eucalyptus, candle holders made from birch branches, old books used for placemats and individual homemade breads at each placesetting. Crushing hard over this one!
Left / Tall candle sticks are the main centerpiece for this table, styled by Liz Marie, and soft, velvety pumpkins adorn each place setting to create a unique, elegant room. Can we also talk about those chandeliers? LOVE!
Right / Pheasant feathers, warm color tones and large white pumpkins create a very inviting feel to this room decorated by Dear Lillie. By the way, how cute is that sign?
