Fall Decorating with an Heirloom Appeal<\/h3>\n

We are approaching the Thanksgiving holiday. The baking is almost done. Decorations, including several heirloom keepsakes that we display each year as part of our holiday traditions, are all in place. Tomorrow, the family will arrive and once again, we will eat more than we need. And as always, at the end of the day when the house is quiet again, I will say, “It was worth it!” Holiday memories are some of the most treasured of all. The heirlooms will go back in the box, stored for another year.<\/p>\n

One of our readers from Texas uses her collection of heirlooms for her fall decorating throughout her home. Charming and inviting, she combines the old with the new to create a beautiful setting for her Thanksgiving table.<\/p>\n

Handmade heirlooms\u00a0include\u00a0placemats\u00a0in the shape of an oak leaf and golden pears. Both are\u00a0made\u00a0of sateen\u00a0cotton\u00a0fabric. The leaf veins in the placemats\u00a0are created\u00a0by top-stitching with a brown\u00a0cotton thread. Both the placemats and the fabric pears demonstrate\u00a0excellent workmanship as well as a quality choice of fabric.\u00a0The pears are\u00a0on\u00a0display year round.<\/p>\n

(If you are crafty and interested in making fabric pears, check out this site for a similar pattern. HugsAndStitches.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Completing the\u00a0tablescape with purchased cotton napkins in a beautiful gold design that compliments\u00a0the color of the placemats. Also, added for texture and interest, metal\u00a0and\u00a0glass\u00a0leaves purchased from Hobby Lobby are placed\u00a0in the center of the table alongside\u00a0additional plastic leaves\u00a0found at\u00a0a local Big Lots.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_4992There is also a turkey that has been around for many years, and it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without him! The fabric turkey is colorful and adds a bit of whimsy to the decorating scheme.<\/p>\n

Using the fabric turkey in the formal dining room, she continues the theme of Heirloom Decorating, creating a simply elegant tablescape design. The colorful turkey pulls all the colors of the tablescape together, and the height of the turkey as a centerpiece is the perfect choice to allow conversation between guests across the table without blocking their view. Too often, the height of the centerpiece is an overlooked detail. When designing a tablescape, it is a good idea to sit at the table prior to your dinner to check the view.<\/p>\n

The gold satin table runner coordinates with the colors in the fabric turkey and the warm, rich colors of the tablecloth. This is a perfect example of how to combine formal and casual fabrics that work beautifully together. The result is a relaxing atmosphere for\u00a0guests.<\/p>\n

The neutral color of the walls of this dining room lends to numerous choices for tablescaping and decorating. Rich hardwood floors, open space, and full-length windows is a perfect setting for any holiday dinner!<\/p>\n

Interested in the oak leaf placemats?<\/h3>\n

We found a site that not only offers the\u00a0Leaf Placemats, but you will find a wide selection of table linens at reasonable prices. They also have told me their merchandise is “Made in America.” I haven’t purchased from this company, but will be receiving some items to review. I will let you know the results. Visit YourTablecloth.com<\/a><\/p>\n

The Hull Pottery Dish | A Favorite of my\u00a0Vintage\u00a0Thanksgiving Collection<\/h3>\n

Each year during the fall season, I bring out several serving dishes that belonged to my mom. One of my favorites\u00a0is the Hull Pottery <\/a>brown drip glaze divided leaf dish.\u00a0I use it to display the hickory nuts we gather each year in the woods behind our house.<\/p>\n

I also use\u00a0a vintage\u00a0Squirrel Nut Dish that usually holds assorted nuts. However, my granddaughter decided this year it would be perfect for the Holiday Acorns<\/a> we made using a Pinterest inspired idea we found.<\/p>\n

Putting the Final Touches on the Tablescape<\/h3>\n

Today I am putting the final\u00a0touches on\u00a0our Thanksgiving Tablescape, including the napkins. Over the last few days, I have experimented with napkins folded to look like turkeys, incorporating pine cones in the design. Next, napkins were folded to look like a cornucopia. Then, I tried Chinese lanterns. But finally, I have decided to\u00a0fold our napkins in the shape of a leaf.<\/p>\n

Now, to decide whether to use the green or white napkins. I like either one, but perhaps leaning toward the green. (Update: My oldest granddaughter likes the green, so decision made!) Your thoughts?<\/p>\n
