I thought I'd better show you my turkeys since all this is getting packed away and Christmas is beginning! My daughter is having Thanksgiving so that is why I am getting an early start. Usually I don't start Christmas decorating til the Friday after Thanksgiving, but this year I am on a neighborhood house tour so wanted to get an early start! BUT, I also wanted to set a table for us til Thanksgiving and also show you the dining room. .I have this transitional runner that has pumpkins AND turkeys on it. Perfect for right now. I love the soft color of it too. I just used my Mr. Tom for my centerpiece, raised on a pedestal and surrounded by leaves and berries. Real squash and large acorns are scattered along the runner too. My ceramic pumpkins sit on the tiny pedestals from CTS.
Just a simple place setting. The napkin really pulls out the green in the plate.
I am using my brown bamboo flatware.
Gorgeous, sunny morning greets us today.
I love the beautiful detail on Mr. Tom
Here are a few nighttime shots.
And here is the dining room. It will chnge SOON, so I thought I'd better include it in this post. I kept my pumpkin topiary and used Mr. Tom along with it for the centerpiece.
Brown pillar holders hold my leaf embossed candles and I used two candle rings: the greens and pumpkin ones too. It all sits on my leaf runner and the hutch is dressed with leaf plates.
I love this topiary.
I think he looks regal wherever he sits!
2 sugared pumpkins complete the setting.
I hope you all have a blessed Thanskgiving. We will, as our son is coming up from Florida so all of the (immediate) family will be together. That is a true blessing. I wish Joe's brother and sister and spouses could be here too.

Love those plates, so many of us bloggers have them...will be pulling mine out next week and using them with the same orange plates or maybe the purple ones!
