Decorating Seasonally

I have a few great ideas for decorating your Holdiay table....if you don't want to use Chinette sturdy plates, you can go to the local Dollar Tree and purchase plates in Autumn colors and if you want to take it a step further, you can layer the 3 plates (dinner, salad and dessert plates ). You could purchase each of the differnt sizes in a different color like...Chocolate Brown dinner plates, Burdundy salad plates and punpkin orange salad plates. Or, you can purchase different colors and mix and match each place setting. Service for 8 (3 sizes x 8 place settings) would only be $24.00 plus tax and that way you would have them for years to come.

The Dollar General and the Family Dollar also offers pretty Autumn colored dishes at the end of Summer too. Keep checking with them and snag them up as soon as you see them bcuz they always sell out fast.

Also, they sell leaf shaped bowls or small plates that can be used at each place setting for bread/rolls or a fancy nametag at each.

You could attach a simple ribbon around each goblet , giving each person a differnt Autumn color so that they could identify their goblet easily.

Can you tell that I adore Thanksgiving and Autumn ? It's because of all the different colors of the leaves in East Tennessee . It is so very beautiful here and the cool temperatures are wonderful.
