A Pink and Green Thanksgiving

We're mid-way into November and I've got Thanksgiving on my mind.  One of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving is setting up the table.  I love to go all out and use the china that I don't get to use as often as I'd like.  Here's a mock - up of a table setting I'd love to do this year - or for any party really.  I have a huge soft spot for a soft pink + green combination.  Incorporating gold touches into the color scheme was a no brainer.  I love that the green still gives it an organic feel  - perfect for Thanksgiving.  Also, instead of spending a ton of money on a single floral centerpiece, go with kale flowers.  They're inexpensive, the perfect size, and you can recycle them by planting them in your backyard.  I love me some win- win situations!

While this setting probably won't happen in my house this year (we're always atleast 35+ people for Thanksgiving!), I can always dream.  Oh, and there would definitely be more food than just a turkey, bread, and sweet potatoes.

  5. Oh, I love this setting! I am frantically finishing a job application so I can get cooking (we celebrate here on Saturday, alas there is no Thanksgiving public holiday in Australia). Priorities! :)
