modern farmhouse thanksgiving tablescape

One of my favorite things to do during the holiday season is put together pretty tablescapes for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners.  Every year I come up with new color schemes and themes and have so much fun putting it all together.  I thought I would share this year’s modern farmhouse thanksgiving tablescape.  Last years, table was farm inspired as well, and I remember writing about how it was my dream to move to a farmhouse.  What a difference a year can make.  We’ve got so much to be grateful this year, it makes me extra excited to celebrate Thanksgiving!

Plates. Salad Plate. Napkins (made by me. similar here and here.) open weave iron basket. cotton stems. numbered candles. woven chargers.(similar here.) greenery and pots. (Ikea.) similar farmhouse tables here and here. similar bench here. metal chairs.

As I said a few weeks ago, I’ve got buffalo check on the brain this year, so I went with that print for the napkins and paired them with lots of modern farmhouse elements; white plates, cotton stems, glass jars, a metal centerpiece and natural woven chargers.  While I love the aesthetic of big beautiful centerpieces, I’m not a fan of actually using them for a meal, because you can’t see each other, and I want everyone to be able to talk and enjoy the meal together without having to take it apart.  So I usually gravitate towards low centerpieces, that make passing the salt easy.  I also added some rosemary and thyme sprigs to the plates to give the table a natural feel and a fresh scent.  I plan to use a lot of these elements in my Christmas dinner table, and just change/add a few things.  As for Thanksgiving, I love the way it all came together.  Now, all we need is the turkey!
