 Thanksgiving is just 48 hours away. You've cleaned the house, polished the silver, shined the crystal, and thawed the bird. A sigh of relief that everything is done right? Oops, did you remember to create a welcoming stage for that beautifully cooked dinner?  Great dinners start with great conversation. A welcoming table with color and interest, adds to the flavor of any occasion. Think of your favorite restaurant. What it the food, or the atmosphere you remember most? If you said both, you are correct.  Exciting however does not need to be expensive or elaborate. Simplicity can be beautiful as well. A simple candle placed in natural elements such as corn kernels or cranberries, is simple yet elegant. Layering your elements with flowers and dried fruits or nuts is also exquisite when done in complementary color schemes.  Is bold and outspoken more your style? Try a glass vase filled with coffee beans or chocolate color stones, with bold pink roses. Striking yet again, inexpensive and easy to create. Whatever your style, your color, or your budget, dressing your table is the jewelry that makes your dinner sparkle, and makes a memory that will last long after the last slice of pie is gone. |
