The big Thursday is just about a week away. For today, I have set a table in light blues and grays giving the traditional oranges and browns a little rest. It never hurts to try something new!
I do love to decorate with pastel colors in my house, so why not set a Thanksgiving table featuring these light colors.
I bet you saw these plates at Pier 1 earlier in the season. I bought six then tried to buy a few more a little later but they were sold out. Glad I jumped on buying them as soon as I saw them. Love the blueish gray pumpkin on the plate design.
For the table centerpiece, dried limelight hydrangeas and little limelights from my gardens were used.
I simply cut the blooms in late September; placed them in a vase with just a little water. I try not to touch them since I'm sure they might crumble.
Flatware for the table is Laurie Gates - Sizzle in Oyster Gray.
The stemware is Fostoria Heritage which belonged to my Mom.
You might be wondering about my mini pumpkins. I grew two plants of them in my tiny vegetable garden. Some of the pumpkins were white and some had orange and white stripes. A little gray paint was added to the striped ones just to go with this blue and gray tablescape.
The leaves were cut using a Tim Holtz die and my Sizzix Die Cutting Machine.
If you are waiting a table that is casual and not too formal, this look might be just for you. It could be used for a Thanksgiving breakfast or Thanksgiving evening and a formal table for the main meal. The choice is yours.
The placemats and napkins are also Pier 1.
Thanks for stopping by for my Thanksgiving in Blues and Grays - Judy.

ReplyDeleteI saw those at Pier 1 then went back to buy and they were all gone - I was so mad. They're the prettiest ones of the season that I found, too. Well done - awesome tablescape, darlin. xxoo
I am impressed by your table. I LOVE it. Our tablescapes are usually more informal, but wish they were more like this!
ReplyDeleteOh, my! This IS pretty!!! I love the non-traditional color scheme! I’m super impressed that you grew your own mini pumpkins, too! I’m going to try next year. Fingers crossed!!! 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 This die cutter machine...I NEED that! I don’t really understand that much about how they work or what the extent of their capabilities is, but I would love to be able to create shapes using the paper pattern of my choosing! Those leaves look so cool!!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving, Judy!
ReplyDeleteCasual or formal, the design is quite sophisticated. We have similar tastes. I love your table. Thanks for inviting us for a peek. CherryKay
