Thanksgiving Silver and White Tablescape

Sharing an Elegant Thanksgiving Tablescape featuring silver and white table settings, a garland table runner, and pumpkins with greenery.

The idea for this tablescape came when I was decorating for Christmas last year.  I had to get my Christmas decorations up before Thanksgiving! We had a lot of company coming over the holidays and I needed to have the decorating out of the way before the crowds arrived. I was trying to figure out how I could use the same garland for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and I found it was actually quite easy! It saved me so much time and money and I was able to use this all through winter.

For the center garland I used faux frosted tip pine branches, frosted eucalyptus, pine cone picks that were painted the same color as the table, and faux cedar branches. I used a grey table runner underneath it. I layered the cedar branches and then layered in the frosted tip pine branches, eucalyptus, and the pine cones.

I used

Pumpkin Themed Fall Tablescape

Sharing my pumpkin themed fall tablescape for autumn decor inspiration and a gorgeous way to host family and guests

Pumpkin Themed Fall Tablescape

When I saw these cute pumpkin dishes at HomeGoods, I knew I had to do a Pumpkin Themed Fall Tablescape. I often search for unique dishes for my tablescapes and when I found these cute pumpkin plates and bowls, I envisioned this festive table with different types of pumpkins.

The one downside with HomeGoods is that there is not always a full set of any place setting.  After searching six different stores in two different states, I finally had enough for 10 place settings!  Whew!  It was a lot of work tracking these dishes down but it has been so worth it. My sweet husband actually found half of them for me! He’s a keeper!

I did two different tablescapes with these dishes, mainly because I

Sharing my family’s favorite warm homemade rolls recipe and how to make these delicious rolls with butter and jam. Get the recipe here.

 

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love the smell of warm homemade rolls or bread baking!  That smell conjures up sweet memories of my childhood and fun times around the holidays with close friends and family. I really enjoy cooking for everyone in my life. My husband LOVES my cooking!  My second son, Jordan, has said that whoever he marries has to go to the Holly Jolley cooking school before he will marry them. I told him he might be single for a long time! It makes me so happy that my husband and kids love it so much when I make their favorite things to eat.

One of their favorite things is my homemade rolls.  These are no ordinary rolls. This recipe was given to me by my friend Kathy years ago. I think one of the reasons my husband likes these rolls so much is that they remind him of when he
