20 Thanksgiving Dining Table Setting Ideas

November 23, 2014 by Joanna

This week our waking hours are consumed with thoughts of Thanksgiving-the menu, the shopping and most of all setting the table. Centerpiece, china, flatware and crystal and how to pull it all together, that what we’re thinking about. Today, we are so happy to share just a few of the many recently discovered ideas for Thanksgiving table settings, food service and a special treat for you at the end of this holiday post.

For a large gathering of friends and family, nothing says Thanksgiving like a long table set with a traditional mixture of china and pumpkins galore.

From the lovely neutral color palette in the first image above, let’s turn to the brilliant hues of these pumpkins, gourds, chrysanthemums and fall leaves. Aren’t they gorgeous?

Need a volunteer to sit at the kids’ table? Count us in because that’s where all the fun happens. The thoughtful host of this Thanksgiving meal has created an interesting and interactive table for the little ones. A personal goody basket for each child and crayons to decorate the paper table covering are just right to keep everyone happy and engaged. There are so many ways that the host can entertain these children. Whilst goody bags are great, the host could also look at getting some fun thanksgiving embroidery designs for the table too. These could be embroidered onto the napkins or placemats to make the table look more child-friendly and fun. Things like that are really good for children and they keep the Thanksgiving theme running!

If the weather is suitable, open the doors and enjoy the fresh air and autumn colors. Mismatched chairs and a colorful tablescape are perfect for this natural setting.

Bring out that traditional centerpiece complete with ceramic gobbler and all those leaf covered individual serving pieces and have your self a very happy retro Thanksgiving. We love the coppery hues used here.

With all those table settings and decorations you might find you have no room for the food on your holiday table. No worries. Set up a buffet on the kitchen island. This clever hostess added menu cards that tell the name of each dish and who created it. How fun is that? It might also be an idea to create a bar in the kitchen area too! This year I have found a coffee urn from https://greatcoffeebrewers.com/coffee-urn-reviews/ that I am going to use so that the guests can also help themselves to drinks throughout the night if they want one. I want to be able to enjoy my night as much as them!

This beautiful and inviting Thanksgiving table included dishes served family style. The food just fits single file down the center of the table. Food as tablescape-now that’s an appealing edible idea!
