As November is just around the corner, let’s take a look at some Thanksgiving Entertaining Essentials. Included today in this post are beautiful dinner plates, silverware, tureens, and much more. I include quite a few unique items today, which I love to support Etsy companies.
I love to create a beautiful dinner table for any special occasion. I had so much fun styling my latest Elegant Thanksgiving Table.
There is something quite pleasing about sitting down at a table that is beautifully decorated. And now that we are in quarantine and we aren’t going out to dinner anymore, so our dinners are now more than ever, super important. So, this year, make sure to create a gorgeous table for your family on Thanksgiving day.

Here are some of my past tables for a bit of inspiration.
Thanksgiving Table Setting Made Easy
Last year, I bought these pretty bundles of wheat. I love how they took center stage on our Thanksgiving table.
This table is all about pumpkins and fruit! I’m obsessed with using natural elements when creating my Thanksgiving tables. So gather leaves, pumpkins, fruit, and even flower petals to style your table.

SILVERWARE
I own this flatware, and I LOVE it! If you like a substantial fork, knife, and spoon, then this set is for you. My husband likes the light, flimsy silverware, so he is always reaching for another group of utensils. Of course, I love how the faceted surfaces create a nice sparkle. Of course, they are a part of my Thanksgiving entertaining essentials!
True to the French spirit of dining well every day, this flatware melds classic elegance with exceptional durability and ease of care. Expertly crafted in a small town in Normandy, the collection features fiddleback handles edged with beading as refined as a string of pearls.

With their graceful leaf and acorn pattern, our napkins evoke fond memories of autumns past and make a stunning addition to the fall table. Jacquard woven and tailored for us by a venerable Russian mill, the cotton-linen fabric offers an elegant drape, a lush feel, and an understated luster that become richer through time and use.
