Thanksgiving Centerpieces

A centerpiece has always been known to anchor your Thanksgiving table, providing visual excitement and energy to the setting. It helps bring everything together and makes the table more inviting for guests. Centerpieces shouldn’t be expensive or hard to make, in fact you probably have everything needed to make a special centerpiece at your fingertips right now. Use fall’s natural resources and a little accent here and there to create some magic in your decor. Be sure to use a table linen that compliments and brings attention to the look you are trying to achieve so the table reads as a cohesive and personal backdrop for your celebration. And dont forget to start early. Setting the table early allows you to focus on the meal so that by the time Thanksgiving arrives, you are ready to share the special day with family and friends. This year, allow Mosaic to help you bring your Thanksgiving table to life!

FESTIVE 

Make use of the natural gifts autumn has to offer by creating vases out of gourds and placing fresh seasonal flowers in them for a colorful and festive look. Pair them with a linen that creates a background that pops, like this burnt orange pintuck from Mosaic.

ELEGANT

For a simple and elegant centerpiece use your finest candlesticks and dishware to showcase white and orange pumpkins and even add some branches of bittersweet berries. Finish the look with a luxurious print in classic colors such as this Ivory Venice linen from Mosaic.

CLASSIC

If you’re dinner party is themed around the original Thanksgiving dinner, go for a centerpiece that entertains the origins of the holiday, with wheat and ears of maize.  Choose a table linen that will complement the autumnal colors of your traditional centerpiece, like Mosaic’s Sunset Mayan linen .

ROMANTIC

For a more intimate setting, make a lower centerpiece that creates a warm glow and emphasizes romantic ambiance, encouraging eye contact and conversation. This centerpiece uses pillar candles, fall leave and a wooden plank to set a romantic mood for an intimate holiday gathering. Use a dark rich colored linen to accentuate the warm and intimate atmosphere you’ve created, like Mosaic’s Brown Maple Leaves.

KID-FRIENDLY

Get the kids involved in the table setting festivities by having them write down what they are most thankful for this year on paper ornaments and clipping them to tree branches. After dinner, while relaxing around the fire, read the wishes from the ornaments to spark conversation and thought. Save them and add more each year, to make a family tradition. Pair this with neutral yet friendly colored linen like Mosaic’s Sage Moire Bengaline linen.
