The Dilemma of the Thanksgiving Centerpiece
Every year I’m tormented over what to use as a centerpiece on the Thanksgiving dinner table. It looks bare if I don’t put anything, but I don’t like to put a bunch of stuff all over the table, since we need room for all of the food!
Last year I came up with some simple votive candles, surrounded by some faux orange berries. Pretty and simple, and it didn’t take up much space. Another ideas is to skip the table centerpiece, use a gorgeous plate setting with wine glasses and decorative napkin rings, and then just put a large floral arrangement on your buffet or server.
Whatever you do, make sure you leave room to show off your turkey!
