A Family Setting of Thanks.
A time to give thanks, but also a time to listen, share, laugh and feast. Each year, my role at Thanksgiving, is to bring the table to life. To make it a festive place to sit amongst while we spend precious moments with our loved ones.
My mother-in-law purchase some lovely cloth napkins years ago for this occasion and I've been able to create a new design every year. This year, I have a bit more time to spend on preparations. So, I scoured Pinterest for some new ideas. And after much thought and shopping, I have come up with the 2020 Thanksgiving table scape. We have 22 guests this year. I've included a close up of the paper & ribbon napkin "rings".
I always do a run through in my studio before the actual presentation:




Here is the actual event, a well received gathering by all!
