Thanksgiving Touches

Back on November first when I tucked in some Thanksgiving touches around the house, the holiday seemed so far away. We already had autumn décor, so I kept it very simple by just adding some pieces to the existing mantel and other vignettes throughout the house.


Keeping the same fall grouping on the counter, I just added a pilgrim pair.

I plugged in a galvanized "harvest" sign to sit among the dried hydrangeas and fountain grass, also on the counter. Since it rather camouflages in the vase, I pulled it out for a close up.



Keeping the same display in the dining room, I traded October's owl salt and pepper shakers for November's turkeys.


The mirror on this antique buffet makes taking pictures tricky. 


This cute autumn leaf pillow is made of felt and intended to appear antique. My sister-in-law gave it to me a few years ago and I love it.


I added an autumn quilt to the hearth and the mantel remains the same as it has since September.


If you're like me, November seems to be zipping away. Soon the pilgrims, turkeys and pumpkins will be packed away for another year...and it will be time to pull out our Christmas decorations! Are you ready?
