Table Linens

Since Thanksgiving is big on traditions, we decided to gravitate towards the tried and true classic color combinations when designing the color story for our holiday tablescape to evoke that festive spirit. And because we think that the real secret to setting up an elegant and posh tablescape is to layer it with different textures and linens to truly make it stand out, we have set the foundation for our lovely Thanksgiving table with a classy natural-colored slubby textured linen tablecloth to inject an eye-catching textural appeal into our table decor. Combining the enticing bucolic look and texture of a natural burlap tablecloth with the smooth and soft feel of premium polyester fabric, our faux burlap textured tablecloth instantly brought a mesmerizing rustic charm to our tablescape. In order to stylishly accentuate our table aesthetics up a notch, we have also unfurled a lustrous burgundy-hued satin table runner down the middle layering it with a burnt orange satin sash. The dark, moody table runner paired with the splash of warm burnt orange hue and the neutral-colored tablecloth underneath has added a riveting contrast of colors which feels very on-theme.

Place Settings

As soon as we were done with layering our table linens, we moved on to our Thanksgiving table setting. Since we wanted our holiday tablescape to be all about incorporating different textures and designs to effortlessly add an enticing visual interest, we haven’t looked any further than our gorgeous gold round reef charger plates to set the stage for our festive place settings. Featuring a stunning reef-like motif and rugged texture, these metallic gold chargers stood out even more when we accented them with glossy burgundy satin napkins neatly folded and tucked underneath along with red-rimmed vine design dinner plates placed on top which was a subtle nod to the bountiful harvest season. Whereas, the exquisite gold baroque design cutlery and gold-rimmed flutes were the perfect finishing touches to our festive Thanksgiving table setting.

Centerpieces

Once the basics were out of the way, next on the agenda were the tabletop decorations. Because we were looking for some sleek Thanksgiving table decorations that are easy to whip up without breaking a sweat, gracing our table with a bunch of florals and lots of candles made perfect sense. To begin with, we have bundled up some artificial burgundy peonies, orange-colored silk chrysanthemums, and champagne-hued roses and hydrangeas in a couple of tapered neck clear glass vases creating two beautiful Thanksgiving table floral centerpieces. You can also opt to display fresh blooms but we suggest that you follow our lead and stick to faux flowers to decorate your Thanksgiving tablescape as it can be a little difficult to source fresh florals around this time of the year.

Although the plump whole turkey is undoubtedly the crown jewel of any Thanksgiving dinner table, we needed a striking centerpiece that would add a glamorous flair to the table just until the bird hits the table. Thus, we thoughtfully decided to arrange a set of our silver mercury glass pillar candle holders holding flickering ivory LED pillar candles in between the two floral centerpieces as you can see in the setup video. The flameless pillar candles that were perfectly nestled in the holders not only added gorgeous dimension and glimmer to our Thanksgiving tablescape but it’ll also make substituting the candleholder centerpiece with the turkey roast completely safe and risk-free.

But we haven’t just stopped there! In order to further illume our table with a warm playful glow, we ended up adding more candles to the mix. But this time around, we opted for our metallic gold pillar candles in varying sizes and set them on natural round wooden slices on both ends of the table. The metallic pop from the candles coupled with the bucolic charm of the wooden slices brought in just the perfect amount of rustic glam to our Thanksgiving table decor which also complemented well with the faux burlap-textured tablecloth. Furthermore, we have also introduced white LED votive candles to our chic gold metal criss-cross design votive holders and gold votive candles to our glass globe votive candleholders to elegantly light up the festive holiday table (You can also use the candles and holders you have on hand as long as they match with your table set up.)

Additional Decorations

Though our tablescape was brimming with exquisite accents and decorations, we were craving for some foliage to further signify the seasonal aspect in our Thanksgiving table decor. So we ended up zigzagging our LED green leafy garland around all the showpieces tying everything together (quite literally!) While we were at it, we thought that a few orange leaves randomly spread around the burgundy table runner would be a wonderful way to cue in the mesmeric fallen foliage, and boy did it work! Moreover, while the tiny twinkling lights in the garland illuminated the whole vignette, we also placed some gold LED tealight candles that helped cap off our Thanksgiving table decor.

However, when it came to the chair decor, we decided to keep things simple to avoid overkill. Hence, we have simply adorned the chair backs with a perfect burnt orange chair sash bow for a lovely harmonized appeal.
