Inspiring Ideas for your Thanksgiving Table

I'm off-the-hook for hosting my family's Thanksgiving Dinner this year so admittedly, I haven't been paying too much attention to preparations but fortunately, many other creative professional party planners across the blogosphere have been.  Here's a quick look at what inspired me; may you be inspired too!

This edible cornicopia is made from bread, embellished with fresh fruit and looks lovely!

Look no further than your backyard to create this lovely centerpiece!  Clear vases are filled with pinecones, moss, prickly balls and even dried beans from your pantry.  Embellish the display with a few scraps of yarn, berry twigs and small pumpkins.
