A Classic Thanksgiving

I stuck to the classics with paisley in the linens . . . 


Plaid in the ribbons . . . 


Hobnail mercury glass votives . . . 


The Fiddle and Thread pattern in the Mikasa French Countryside dishes . . . 



And the Monticello flatware from Reed and Barton . . . ?


Copper seems to be showing up everywhere lately . . . so I decided to play with it . . .


It appears in the napkin rings, the votive holders and the centerpiece . . .  The good ol' rule of three!


The color palette is kept traditional with various shades of orange, rust and green . . .


But the linen pattern feels young and fresh . . .  I liked the counterpoint of young and fresh with classic and traditional . . .


We lit the candles . . .


And we broke bread . . .  Happy Thanksgiving!
