Friendsgiving is a holiday favorite because it’s a time to pile around the table with friends. From comfort foods to naturally elegant tablescapes, it’s definitely one of my favorites.
The Setting
Given the season, it’s easier to set the table with natural elements from your local market. The table I styled uses the Acacia Wedge Servers as a charger complemented with the Thankful Dinner Plates. The dinner plates are actually closer to a salad plate size, so I recommend using your everyday white dinner plate underneath. If you don’t have white everyday plates, you could grab the Marin Dinner Plates from Crate & Barrel. They’re some of my favorites out there because of their beautiful imperfections. It gives it character in my opinion.
Given all of the whites and woods, I wanted to complement the look with touches of gold and blush. I used my favorite Rose Gold flatware and picked up two of the Brass Tealight Centerpieces to line the table. Lastly, the flowers are long sprigs of fresh rosemary with some white berries and blush roses.
