A Traditional Thanksgiving Table
Thanksgiving is a traditional holiday, so what better way to set your table than in a traditional style? Create a tablescape with a lace or linen tablecloth, silver dessert stand, bone china, and fancy candlesticks. But this year, classic decor gets a little more contemporary with splashes of color and eye-catching prints. We’ve raided the Houzz Shop for the perfect dinnerware, linens, and decor for your traditional Thanksgiving.

LinensLinens set the tone for your table, so choose wisely. If super traditional is your thing, go for a white lace tablecloth and linen napkins. For something a bit more contemporary, sprinkle in a touch of pattern and color. Try bright yellow napkins or a paisley tablecloth in fall colors. It may be a little more contemporary than your grandmother’s linen, but we bet she won’t mind.
DecorTraditional decor is back in a big way—think vintage vases and gorgeous candlesticks. A floral centerpiece is always a classic, as are lovely placecards and fall gourds. Don’t be afraid to mix materials like silver and bronze or burlap and glass. It’s a great way to incorporate all the traditional decor you love in a new way.
ServewareTraditional serveware is beautiful—we love silver trays, bone china, white plates, and etched glass drinkware. Add some new classics to the mix with Moscow Mule mugs and seeded glass goblets to ensure your table doesn’t feel too stuffy.
