Thanksgiving Table

I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving celebrations.  We had a small gathering here with family.  There's a lot to be thankful for.  Hosting can be hectic, so I stayed up (too late) setting the table the evening before.  I used a simple white background for our elegant wedding china, and dried hydrangeas and fall leaves from our garden.  Fleur-de-lys punchouts from Petite Michelle Louise made the table festive.  My Dad asked if I cut those out by hand.  Ahhh...no. 
I also added Michelle's 'Merci' tag to the centerpiece as a simple message for the day. 

The sparkling cider on the buffet was wrapped in some vintage Belgium ribbon and white burlap.  I mixed the burlap, lace and a vintage striped fabric from Brimfield Flea Market as the runner.  The mirror is a Brimfield treasure from several years ago.  It was fun mixing the elegant and rustic pieces.

Now on to Christmas decor ...the happiest season of all!

Decorating with Etsy

Recently I've decorated with some lovely Etsy finds from fellow bloggers.  Here are some pretty paper roses made by Angela Harris at her Etsy store YourAngil.

I've also used her Paris Eiffel Tower tags, hanging on an old barn window with vintage French vocabulary words from Petite Michelle Louise.

I plan to use Michelle's Fleur De Lys punch-outs scattered on my Thanksgiving table.  Thank you, Angela and Michelle!
