Thanksgiving Table Dressed In Champagne

Today I put together a dressy

Thanksgiving table using champagne

colors.  The colors go so well with my

home and especially my dining room chairs.

This turkey plate from Home Goods was

my inspiration for the color scheme with the

taupe color of the transferware.

I love the soft watercolor effect of

pale reds, yellows and blues on these neutral plates.

The soft colors add dimension and interest.

They are stacked over two taupe colored

plates in graduating sizes.

You aren't usually going to find lidded 

pumpkins in champagne or taupe so

I purchased some orange lidded candles from

Wal Mart and used

 Krylon's Metallic Caramel Latte paint 

in satin and gave them a coat.

They are decorative only so I

don't need to worry about them being 

food safe.

In orange they were just gaudy 

and not very pretty, as a matter

of fact, they were on clearance,

but with a coat of metallic soft

paint, they are lovely.

The painted pumpkins are a

perfect match with my new glasses

that I brought home from Cabo

last time.  I love their gorgeous

champagne color.

Ralph Lauren napkins in taupe

are gathered with a tassel from

a fabric store.

The new champagne colored glasses

are paired with bubble glasses.

Rustic place woven brown placemats anchor

the placesettings and cream colored flatware 

are the choice for today.

I love how all the soft colors work together

to create a dressy table.

The centerpiece is set in a jewelled 

champagne colored wreath, mixing the

dressy with the rustic.

Pure elegance in the materials of this

wreath.  

As you r eye crosses the table, the

combined textures create an

elegant interest.

It is fun to put together a

 non-traditionally colored table.

The candles are lit and we are ready

to dine.

I will be posting this table with
