Our Thanksgiving and Christmas tables were so elegant, and so simple and easy to achieve. A few changes and we were able to achieve two different looks. The runner, napkins, and chargers were purchased from Target. The flowers and pumpkins from the local store and everything else was found around the house. Combining the texture of the chargers with the simple striped linen and beautiful flowers made for a beautiful view while eating turkey.

For Christmas we used the same striped runner and napkins. Purchased the gold chargers to make it more formal for Christmas and the gold candle holders. The garland down the center and hydrangeas mixed with cranberries. The twinkling lights down the center combined with the glow of the candles created an elegant atmosphere.
