One of my favorite times is Thanksgiving… an easy menu, family, and how I love to set the tables and enjoy the fall flowers.\u00a0 I am in the thick of planting winter containers and picking up outdoor greens, birch branches, magnolia leaves, and various fun additions to use… but I can never pass all those gorgeous indoor flowers!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yes, I am in a bit of heaven surrounded by gorgeous colors and a wide variety of blooms in the cold flower case, so I had to purchase a few beautiful stems to play with.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I picked gorgeous Hydrangea, Cherry Brandy Roses, an amazing hot pink Peony (my favorite!), a soft purple Queen Anne’s lace, pink and orange Ranunculus, Allium spray (that is called pink but is\u00a0more purple in color), and a variety of Berzelia, which I also like to use outdoors.<\/p>\n

I opted to use three birch bark covered containers that I also purchased at LD Trading Co, in Northbrook, IL. \u00a0I have two tables to dress so I put a rectangular container on the smaller table and the two squares on the larger table of 12 with various votives and candles.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

I always like to bring out all my good and also playful dishes, as a crowd of 20 requires me to use most all dishware.\u00a0 I prefer to use placemats and runners rather than table cloths because I like the look. \u00a0I found these fun paper place mats at Gethsemene Garden Center in Andersonville called “kitchen papers”. \u00a0This design is “Archival\u00a0Floral”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You can have as much fun with the flowers at the grocery store, just make sure to mix them up and choose a color palette that works for your fall thanksgiving table. \u00a0You can use ball jars, old various sized vases, pitchers for your containers, get creative and enjoy the process!<\/p>\n

Happy Thanksgiving!!<\/p>\n
