TOTALLY TURKEY

We are so happy that Thanksgiving Day is coming. All the turkey and fix'ins to celebrate an American holiday.
 With Indians, pilgrims, and turkeys we come together to celebrate this American tradition.  
 To the right of the centerpiece a tea container...
 To the left of the centerpiece the teapot stands out.
 A close-up of the pilgrims surround the turkey salt shaker. 

The Indians circle the sheaf of wheat pepper shaker.
 The tureen will hold fresh pumpkin soup with creole lobster.
 The proper pilgrims stand holding a pumpkin, plus corn and a cornucopia of fruit.  
 This brightly colored turkey wears his top hat and buttoned up shirt dressed to the nines. 
 Of course dreaming of pecan, lemon, and pumpkin pies brings a smile to our faces. Hot pumpkin spice tea will accompany the wonderful desserts.
Six place setting are for all of our family and guests. 
 Everything is turkey from the embroider napkins, turkey napkin rings, and the orange glass candle holders. The flatware has a faux brown wooden handle.
 The golden ice beverage stemware will serve water or iced tea.
 Williams and Sonoma provided the turkey plates for the table. Both the salad plate and....
the dinner plate boast a fully plumed turkey. The traditional brown transferware is echoed in the acorned pattern rim of the plate.
 The place plate or charger with a plaid rim uses red, yellow, brown, and orange hues to accent the dinnerware.

May each of you be blessed with family and friends around a bountiful Thanksgiving table.

Dear Pam:
What a lovely table and I can't help but say those plaid chargers were my favorite part of the table. Everything ties together so well and fun! Thanks for sharing your beautiful table settings.

I'm sure your Thanksgiving guests will be delightful with your turkey-themed table setting. I'm intrigued by the pumpkin soup with Creole lobster...
