Hi there friends...
I am honored to be one of the bloggers chosen by Sherry No Minimalist Here to participate in her Thanksgiving Vignette blog hop!!
~~~
I decided to put together a casual tablescape for Thanksgiving using everything I had on hand...
that even included the roses!
I shopped the house and grabbed things from different rooms...I even grabbed some of the baby boos I had in one of my lanterns outside.
I love how you can create something pretty without spending a dime!
I started by placing a piece of burlap on the table... instead of using one of my typical runners or tablecloths.
Then the layering began starting with my favorite chargers that I bought from Nell Hill's a few years ago.
I used my white everyday dishes...
pretty cloth napkins...
my small blue dishes...
and a baby boo pumpkin to complete the setting.
I bought these blue and white dishes in Home Goods over the summer.
They came as a set of four...love how they all have a different pattern on them.

I pulled out my MIL silverware and tied them with a piece of ribbon...adding a little cheetah print is always fun!

My MIL is no longer with us...my husband and I are very thankful to have this set!
I found this little brass tray at a flea market I frequent.
I love it...it travels around the house quite a bit!

Aren't these roses pretty!
The two toned ones are my favorite...the colors are perfect for Fall!

Gorgeous Thanksgiving Table Martina!...Love how you coordinated the color of the roses with the table...Happy to be able to party with you!
You were chosen correctly dear Martina. Your table is beautiful and I too love those chargers, it can give them a country or rustic look at any given table and with gorgeous dishes as yours.
Hugs,
FABBY
I love the colors you chose and the roses are the crowning touch. :)
Your tablescape is beautiful, Martina. Love the addition of that pop of leopard!
So beautiful!!! Love the wicker chargers with the pop of blue and those cute little pumpkins!

Very pretty Martina-I love your chargers and the pop of leopard!
Oh Martina, it is so beautiful. I love the casual beauty of the setting and the roses are my favorites too. You set a gorgeous table and yes, I would love to join you for lunch.
I love your table vignette. The photos are beautiful:)
What a pretty table setting! I love your Fall colored roses in the blue and white jar. The wicker chargers are a nice way to add texture to the table setting too. Perfect for Thanksgiving.
What a wonderful Thanksgiving table. I love the pine cones and pumpkin combination and that blue and white jar is beautiful!
What a simple but elegant table setting Martina! I love the fact that you used plain white dishes and then layered the pretty napkins and blue and white plates on top. And those roses....whooowheeee they are screaming Autumn. Love the color paired with the blue and white vase...stunning!
Thank you so much for shariing and have a great day!

Martina, Your Thanksgiving table is beautiful! I love the blue and orange together. Thank you so much for sharing your pretty tablescape at the blog hop.
Hugs,
Sherry
This is really pretty and I am like you, I love to be able to decorate without spending more. Love your chargers and beautiful roses! Happy Thanksgiving!
I love the blue and orange Martina, it's so pretty with the warmth of the wicker chargers.. But that cheetah ribbon might be my favorite thing on your table.
That is pretty, Martina. I love the plaid napkins with the cheetah ties around the silver.
Your Thanksgiving table looks so pretty, love the fresh roses and MIL's silverware, so special!
Everything looks so pretty together. I love your wicker chargers. Your roses are beautiful and I bet they smell so nice. Beautiful job, Martina!
I do! I do! I do want to join you for lunch (jumping up and down with my arm in the air) I promise to behave and not steal your MIL's beautiful silver or break your sweet little blue and white dishes. Those roses are gorgeous. You hit rustic elegance right on the head. xo Diana
Hi Martina, your table setting is gorgeous. I love the layering you used and the rustic elegance is warm and inviting. I always enjoy your ideas and thanks for the inspiration.
Have a nice weekend.

I LOVE your table setting, Martina!! Just perfect for Thanksgiving...and I'd love to be able to pop in for lunch!! Your roses are gorgeous and I really like the chargers. Lovely!!

Martina, I just love the way you have set the table. Blue and white is always a favorite and paired with the colors of fall, it is outstanding. Everything looks very pretty..Happy Thursday..Judy
Hi Martina! Oh, your table is just beautiful! I'm not surprised you could pull things from your other rooms - you have so many pretties! The roses are gorgeous and the blue and white vase and dishes are perfect!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Simple and elegant! Love the white plates with the chargers.
At first I thought the burlap cloth was going to steal my heart, then I saw the plaid napkins, then the leopard ribbon (I know, very different but that's me!), then your MIL'S silver, then the woven mats. Geezzzz Louise, I don't know where to look first!
Anyone can make a table look pretty by heading out to their local HomeGoods (or as in my recent attempt, Pier One), but it takes talent and creativity to pull this off, and yes, it's definitely more fun and fulfilling. Not to mention easier on the wallet.
(I found you on Housepitality and as soon as I saw your 'rustic elegance' post I needed to stop by. We live in a log cabin. Nuf' said).
The pops of orange and blues are wonderful, Martina. Your table looks so festive and inviting.
What a gorgeous table! I love all the colours you've used and the wicker chargers together with all the white and rustic elements.
Just lovely...
Pretty! Looking forward to this wonderful, mostly stress free holiday!
Martina,
It looks beautiful and I am lovin' all your blue and white.
Blessings,
Linda
Awesome job Martina! Love the roses and the new dishes. I love to capture the sun with my tablescapes - it offers such a nice affect!
Love this Martina,
So pretty. I will be over for lunch!
Kris
Such a pretty Fall table, Martina! I love the pumpkins, pinecones and those plaid napkins are great. All those things just say Fall to me, so I think you've captured it perfectly.
Martina - all of the textures and colors are just perfect. I especially love the blue and white with the orange. Just lovely!
So pretty Martina! Love your beautiful tablescape!And I love how you used what you already had on hand!
Love this! Your roses are stunning :)
Susan
Your colors are awesome as is your entire table setting. Just beautiful.
We will have close to 20 for dinner on the big day and paper plates are in order....:)
xo
You have created such a beautiful table. So nice what you can find in your own home. I would love to come for lunch.
How beautiful!
Love the vintage look of your thanksgiving table...with the blue and white plates and the brass candlesticks...everything looks so pretty!Elegance in simplicity! I am loving your gorgeous chandy as well:) Happy Thanksgiving!Hugs, Poppy
really pretty table setting Martina...love the mix you used...enjoy your Thanksgiving!!
xo, Mariaelena
Looks beautiful!
Love those gorgeous fall colors.
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog :)
Hi Martina! This is a great Thanksgiving table setting! I love orange and blue together (part of that comes from being an Auburn fan). Is your MIL's silverware pattern "Buttercup"? I think that was my mother's pattern but most of it has been lost over the years. You are lucky to have a nice set of it.
Martina, your table is lovely. I love the blue plates you found and the details on your table. The chargers, the textures of the linens, and the pretty roses are wonderful details.
