 Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday . . . .
Yikes! Thanksgiving is only two days away.

Hubby and I are working through our Thanksgiving dinner prep list and I completely forgot the centerpiece.

But it's not too late to pull out some Fall craft supplies and get to work on an interesting and inexpensive tablescape. 
The adorable menu pumpkin, right, was simply painted with chalk paint.  Clever, isn't it?

Cut twigs and small tree branches were glue-gunned to a tin
can and filled with artificial flowers from a discount store.


Pheasant feathers, raw peanuts, and moss - what?!
Instead of buying feathers why not use a succulent plant instead?

An apple topiary is quite easy to assemble.  After deciding on the base, pick up a foam topiary form at a craft store, a bag of apples, and some greenery.  (Boxwood leaves work great.)

Cored apples filled with votives are super simple and quite ingenious.

Apples also make adorable place cards.
Squash + votive = genius!





Redbook
Kumquats, cranberries, walnuts, and a candle
were charmingly combined in a hurricane vase.

A basket, a glue gun, and hundreds of acorns.
I love it.

Autumn leaves were modpodged to an inflated oblong balloon.
After drying, the balloon was popped and gently removed.

Link
Dried baby corn was simply tied around a short candle.
