When I think about a Thanksgiving tablescape I always think about the harvest and imagine a table piled high with pumpkins and gourds, corn and wheat.  I know this is a fantasy idea, but I wanted to take a cornucopia and have it flow down the length of my table.  I think this fantasy table would be colorful with orange pumpkins, yellow wheat, green gourds and colorful Indian corn.  I decided to keep my table much more neutral than that with shades of white, cream and tan.

  1. Chloe your table looks so wonderful and I love the grapevine crafted cornucopia. The touches of fall are just gorgeous. Have a wonderful holiday season sweet friend!

  2. I always loved doing cornucopias for Thanksgiving when I was a floral designer, especially the grapevine ones. Something so organic about them. Love your setting here, makes you smell the turkey and pumpkin pie, Thanks, Sandi

  3. A beautiful and bountiful harvest table Chloe! Your cornucopia of grapevine is wonderful! I know how difficult it is to wrangle grapevine into shape 🙂

    1. Oh, thank you Mary, and yes, even with a chicken wire frame inside (that was hard to wrangle too) the cornucopia was a challenge. Maybe next year I will share a post on how to do it, after I am over the trauma!

  4. That cornucopia is really a sure stopper! It is amazing and so glad you got to make it!! Having the food on a separate table with a setting like this is a must have. So very creative!!

  5. Chloe, You home and taste is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for inspiring me with all of your pretty details for Thanksgiving. The cornucopia is amazing! I mean, wow!
    Thanks again for so many beautiful detail ideas that make Thanksgiving even that much better.

  6. Beautiful Chloe! I love your overflowing grapevine cornucopia and all the soft muted colors! I have been looking for jute or water hyacinth mats like those, bought some at Target but returned them because they looked dirty when I got them home, yuk! Did you buy them recently? I think there is nothing more perfect for Thanksgiving than a runner abundant with bounty, fabulous!
