Thanksgiving - The Red Headed Step Child of Holidays?


Ah! It's that time of the year folks! Time to gather around with family and friends and give thanks for all the amazing things in your life by inducing yourself into a food coma. Or to give thanks for making it through another year alive! You better hurry up and do it though, because for some odd reason, Thanksgiving seems to get pushed to the side by all the other holidays. Big bullies! Poor Thanksgiving doesn't get the attention it deserves.  Let us give you a few examples.....
 
Take a look at most retailers and you will be surrounded with spooky Halloween décor and extravagant Christmas displays. And then there's the measly Thanksgiving end cap which usually consists of a few gourds, pumpkins and the cliché cornucopia. Where is the love? Well CSE decided we're not going to take part in holiday negligence!  We scoured for the most creative and chic décor that will have us all embracing Thanksgiving with a new found respect. 
 

We love these feather place mats over at Mobile Bay Mag! You can't go wrong with feathers. Don't know where to find them? We got this: Take a drive over to Michael's or you local craft store, pick up some feathers and start gluing. Glue them to felt, wood....whatever you have around. Be resourceful like the pilgrims.  You can get the kids involved and before you know it you'll have custom place mats. BOOM!
 
 
Peasant feathers are even better.
 
 
Pick up some of these adorable mini pumpkins and some gold spray paint, while you're at it. Metallic paints and glitter work every time! On everything!
 
 
 
What a great idea! So simple.
 
Wishbone napkin holders! WHAAAT! Pottery barn always comes through.
  
 
 

 
                                  
 
Now this is Thanksgiving!
 
                                              
 
 
 
We here at Creative Sisters Events wish you and your family the most amazing and fulfilling Thanksgiving. From our family to yours. Work that turkey hat!
