The Thanksgiving Collection
Thanksgiving is so particular to me. As a abode entertaining enthusiast, it is a vacation that embraces all of the elements I absolutely honey - traditional recipes, classic decor, a cozy wood-burning fire, a large tabular array filled with family inwards a warm home. We are hosting this year, the starting fourth dimension inwards our novel house. My withdraw heed is brimming with ideas for making it a particular (yet simple) vacation for our family. I desire to brand certain our solid is filled with traditional accents - piles of cloved oranges, bittersweet branches, pumpkins as well as gourds, lit candles everywhere, as well as of course, delicious aromas of the feast. I think close all of these elements when I set together this collection.
I really focused on finding elementary ways to set upwards of beautiful tabular array for our identify unit of measurement celebrations. You'll find versatile items to operate all yr long with seasonal touches, restocked linens as well as lots as well as lots of candles : )
Enjoy!
Two years ago, this "Thankful" carte du jour became a tradition for many of you. The first year's read "I Am Thankful For" - but last year I changed it to "We Are Thankful" to really reinforce the Thanksgiving spirit. It is such dainty means to live greeted as you lot sit down downwards to a feast that is all close bounty as well as thanksgiving. Sometimes knowing (and seeing) that soul is grateful to accept us inwards their lives is all nosotros demand to live fulfilled - feeling this honey exactly mightiness encourage them to spread that honey to others. I similar that it brings the existent betoken of the Thanksgiving vacation into focus. Having it correct at that spot on the tabular array helps everyone retrieve what the vacation is all about.
These cards piece of occupation neat as Place Cards or as Gift Tags tied on a introduce or hostess gift.
The carte du jour is a natural, creamy cardstock printed inwards the a warm chocolatey brown.

As you lot all know, I'm a large fan of Taper candles. I think at that spot is nada to a greater extent than elegant or classic than a paw dipped taper candle on a pall or on a table. Typically, when I come upwards across hurricanes they are for pillar candles. When I saw this pewter hurricane base of operations for a taper candle paired with a tall sparse drinking glass sleeve I knew it would the live the perfect affair for our Thanksgiving table.
It is a piddling combat modern with its super tall build clean glass, as well as a lot classic with the pewter base of operations as well as taper candle. I envision it paired with bittersweet trails as well as gourds on Thanksgiving, as well as mayhap filled with cloves as well as cranberries for Christmas morning. I love, love, honey these.

One of my favorite things to practice instantly that the conditions is getting quite chilly is to wake upwards early on inwards the morning time earlier anyone else is awake. I come upwards downstairs as well as I low-cal this unmarried taper candle earlier I plough on whatsoever other lights. (This item candle is a Bayberry Candle, below, and smells similar earthy, warm, natural spice.)
There is something so primitive as well as luxurious close using the low-cal of a candle inwards the early on morning time to brand your java or tea, or to read a book.
This early on American antique trend candlestick is meant exactly for that. In fact, it is called a "Library Candle Holder." Made from pewter with simple, yet elegant design.
The natural scent that these candles accept from the Bayberry is warm, earthy as well as exactly a combat spicy. If you've e'er visited Nantucket, the scent of the Bayberry shrubs greet you lot as you lot larn off of the fairy - completely nostalgic as well as comforting. The candles were with the most prized candles inwards colonial America because of their clear, consistent low-cal as well as warm scent.
The carte du jour that is enclosed with the candles tells the history of using Bayberry Candles at Christmastime :
"These tapers are handcrafted using the purest bayberry wax. Bayberry wax is the rarest as well as most prized of all candle waxes, as well as has a warm, earthy, spicy aroma. According to tradition, to pick out proficient luck, you lot must give notice a Bayberry Candle on Christmas Day. If the flame burns vivid as well as the low-cal shines clear, so sky volition bless you lot throughout the year." I don't think at that spot is anything as classic as well as lovely as transferware. Popularized inwards 18th century England, it seems to never exit of trend as well as await neat as well as fresh every season. These planters are so versatile. They tin live used for display on a pall or a shelf, or on a table. I computer programme to flora paperwhite as well as amaryllis bulbs inwards mine as well as give them away as hostess gifts this year.
I also honey them going downwards a tabular array filled with diverse things - piles of clementines, nuts or gourds.
Set of three : Small 4", Med 6", Large 8"
I used this circular set upwards of planters inwards diverse ways, creating a clustered centerpiece. I used some as as candle holders past times inserting foam into the base. They were really elementary to brand as well as tin easily alter with the seasons. Others exactly agree piles of cloved oranges.
I think they await as as charming on a mantle, too. Now you lot know why I went so crazy with the transferware - so many ways to operate them!

Since Thanksgiving is all close the ultimate identify unit of measurement meal, what is to a greater extent than appropriate than these cute, classic candles for your table.

I loved the linear sort as well as how it so easily lend itself to a business of planted bulbs (paperwhites or amaryllis) for the holidays, or daffodils inwards the spring. I used it filled with herbs inwards the summertime as well as piled with mini gourds inwards the fall. It worked neat on our old, to a greater extent than rustic tabular array (which was on a porch), but instantly I flora myself looking for a to a greater extent than refined vessel.
Last year, our friend Tessa (Nine as well as Sixteen) featured an oblong metallic planter on her Holiday tabular array with candles going downwards the middle as well as greenery tucked all around.
