Greetings Everyone and Happy Tablescape Thursday! How are you all doing? Ready for Christmas? Presents wrapped and stockings stuffed? I am slightly behind schedule this year. The house is decorated, yet I still have to bake the cookies and do the shopping. But, before I delve into all the Christmas Chaos I would like to share with you one of my thanksgiving tables.
Last year for my mothers birthday, I had bought martini glasses and recreated a holiday decoration I had seen in a magazine years ago.
Even had left over napkins from last years party! The napkins were also the inspiration for the silver and white tablescape.
The fireplace lit—it was nice and cozy when the guests arrived.
I love my individual gravy boats!

Champagne for our guests!
The candles are lit….
The guest of honor!!!……(as always we grill our turkey on the gas grill—–soooooooooo goood!)
Now to reveal my secret….did you notice the dishes? They are not real—-they are disposable!!! Awesome.!
I am usually not one to use disposable dishes, but these dishes look so real…..
Happy Thursday Everyone!
Be sure to stop by Tablescape Thursday for more wonderful tablescapes!

I'm shocked – not that you used plastic dishes (noticed how many you were expecting), but that you just can't TELL there plastic. This is totally awesome. Your table looks fab; and agree that it's fun to have those individual gravy boats when you have such a big crowd. Kudos on a wonderful tablescape! Happy Holidays.
