Turkey Day is upon us and if your searching for last minute, inexpensive table ideas then look no further. With a neutral and gold color palette, these easy to find flourishes ensure the table will be ready in no time.
To start I’ll share with you one of my favorite things to use when decorating for a gathering that’s inexpensive and versatile…wrapping paper! Its great to use on tables or photo backdrops and comes in so many prints and themes making it perfect for almost any situation. Here you can see I found this plaid and gold print at Home Goods. Layer on the plates and utensils and napkins with personalized name place tags. Get these free, DIY printable name tags to type in the names and print your own, and inexpensive ribbon holds the tags and double as napkin rings. Flowers from the grocery store are placed in glasses with added herbs for greenery. Pumpkins were recycled from past decor with a few painted in gold spray paint to vary up the look and tie in gold accents.
Candle light always makes a dinner more intimate using a few mosaic votives that my mother already owned. Lastly, this beautiful blue and white pumpkin was also reused from previous decor using a wooden cutting board to make it a focal point, accented in additional smaller pumpkins and herbs. Using herbs on the table is great way to use remaining unneeded herbs and the heavenly smell gives you a warm and cozy feeling, engaging more of your senses. I wish everyone the best as they give thanks and enjoy all the yummy food around their well dressed table. Happy Thanksgiving!
