Thanksgiving Table

My Thanksgiving table is set.
I'll share a preview with you. I have had all these items for years. I like to shop my house and the attic for table decorations.
The candle stands are from Southern Living at Home.
The soup tureen is from Goodwill. I encircled it with some gourds.

I used some wicker chargers that came from Marshall's.

The salad plates also are from Goodwill.

The little napkin rings are some blessings wall decorations I found last year on clearance from Wal-Mart for 87 cents each. I knew I would use them one day.






The table is set for 6 now, but we will have a full table on Thursday.
I will probably add the leaves to the table.




I am entering Tablescape Thursday from Between Naps on the Porch.

You set a pretty table! I really like those candle holders. Everything will be done buffet style here as usual for lack of space.
Thanks for stopping by. You may have a Granddaughter some day. :-D Her other Grandmother makes the bows for her. :D
Enjoy your evening.

So lovely and inviting, Sheila!

I'll do well to get the table set before the group all arrives. I used to get everything done several days ahead, so I could just ENJOY the atmosphere, but now I'm just so SLOW. I find myself flinging books and jackets and mail onto our bed and shutting the door just as the guests are coming down the stairs.

We do always have a wonderful time, and I guess I just need to relax and let what will be, be.

Have a wonderful holiday with all your sweet Lovies!
