Canadian Thanksgiving Table

I finally found the time to set a table in our new dining room!

Of course I HAD to set a table too as we are hosting the 

Canadian Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday in our new home.

I cannot wait to host Mr. B's mom & dad!

In previous years I have chosen to go with a traditional table 

setting as you can see here and here.

This year, I decided to set a less traditional Canadian Thanksgiving Day table.

I haven't unpacked and hung up my tablecloths yet so, 

keeping the table bare was a very easy decision!

And I also kept it simple with no chargers or place mats.

I chose to use my pale blue dinner and salad plates at each setting. 

Not your usual color for Fall but I felt they were perfect 

against the mahogany dining table.

Plain white napkins and our wedding flatware don't distract from the dishes.

The Godinger Shannon goblets always work, whether it be a 
traditional or non traditional tablescape.

I kept the rest of the table decor in shades of white.

A thrift store pumpkin tureen and a Dollar Tree 

pumpkin sit at one end of the table.

While another small pumpkin and leaf salt and pepper 

anchor the other end of the table.

For the centerpiece I filled my favorite urn from World Market with clippings from the Purple Sand Cherry bushes that are planted by the front porch. 

The color could not be more perfect for Fall and Thanksgiving, don't you think?

There is nothing new on this table.  All have been used before and 

I am so okay with that.  It is so fun to set a table with them in a new and different way in a new and different room. 

Now that could all very easily change as, unlike the U.S. Thanksgiving, 

all of the stores will be open and there is nothing Mr. B's mother and I like more then hitting Home Goods, TJ Maxx, Ross, and World Market when they come to visit LOL!

We'd like to wish all of our Canadian family & friends 

a very Happy Thanksgiving!

See you soon!
