Modern Thanksgiving Tablesetting

I am so happy to have my parents visiting for the Thanksgiving long weekend. It's a perfect excuse to set the table and cook an actual meal. This weekend, instead of making the traditional turkey dinner, we decided to do beef! On the menu is beef tenderloin seared in garlic, butter, and thyme; maple sweet potato mash; green bean casserole; and for dessert a pumpkin cream cheese roll. Mom and I picked up some beautiful twigs with orange berries and white pumpkins from a local flower shop. I paired the twigs and pumpkins with some candles, black and white plates, gold cutlery, and light grey napkins. Our table is small so we kept it really simple.

Black plates: Ikea, pattern plates: CB2, napkins: EQ3, gold cutlery: CB2, black taper candle sticks: CB2, black tea light holders: EQ3, greenery and berries: The Flower Factory.

I couldn't resist these orange berry twigs when I saw them at the flower shop. I just had to have some!

I am thankful for loving family and friends, I am thankful to have this lovely once in a life time adventure in Vancouver with my man, and I am thankful for our health. What are you thankful for this thanksgiving? Share with us in the comments below!
