I love red tulips! They just say take me home everytime I see them at the grocer. They look perfect nestled among my blue and white. And the nest is the promise of springtime.

A year ago tonight, we didn't foresee what the year would bring. But, I am thankful for the small gifts that came from this last year, and I'm hopeful to take the hands of my family and friends in 2021.

I call this placesetting Very Vintage in memory of my parents. I saved it for the final Thanksgiving set your table three ways inspiration. This month would have been their 73rd wedding anniversary.💓

This was Mother's wedding china and crystal. I love the detail of the delicate pink and blue flowers. The linens were gifted to me by my friend Mary Lane. She purchased them in the 70s while living in Hong Kong. When I saw the Cherry Brandy roses at the grocer, I knew they would be perfect.

I call this Thanksgiving placesetting Mood in Blue. I mixed vintage pieces with my white everyday china, blue glassware from New Mexico and little vintage bird salt and pepper shakers. And every table needs an leopard print pumpkin!

But the best part - the placecard frame with childhood photos make a great conversation starter. Look closely...who do you think the cutie is in the frame?
