I don't really decorate for Thanksgiving, or really any holidays beyond Christmas.......except I do like to change napkins and placements to be seasonally appropriate. I purchased these probably last year, and have never used them. Was actually looking for ones I have that are more Thanksgiving Looking with a pumpkin...but in the process came across these. Pulled off the price tags and decided this would be a good time try my hand at the napkin folding thing.
You might remember me posting about it a few posts ago.
I choice what appeared to be best match for what I was doing, as I wasn't putting dishes on the table. This is the 2nd or 3rd from the end of the video, as I recall. Pockets for your silverware. I only added a spoon that day, as we were having chili for dinner and only a spoon was needed.
Even though I didn't find or use the Thanksgiving Placemats, I was happy with these very fall like placemats. LOVE the colors. Plus my flowers from work for my birthday were indeed a good match color wise.
We did not do Thanksgiving at my house, we went to my older brothers. Believe there were 19 of us for the feast. Hope you all had a wonderful and safe holiday and enjoyed special time with friends and family.
That is so pretty. I love the fall colors. Reminds me of Thanksgiving and Halloween. Kills two holidays right there.
ReplyDeleteYou had mentioned in one of your comments on my blog about LLR not fitting the way it used to. I talked to one of my consultants about that today. This has been brought to the attention of the home office and they are working on it. I guess the arms on many of their pieces have been getting smaller and smaller and people are getting quite upset about that. Also, some of their clothes have been getting smaller in the mid section and that is not making people happy. Fingers crossed that this will all get fixed. I am to the point where I almost need to go and try on certain pieces before I buy them. The type of material makes a big difference in how they fit.
Marsha, thanks for the visit, appreciate it. You're right, hadn't thought about these placemats working for both Halloween and Thanksgiving. Thanks for pointing that out.
ReplyDeleteThanks too for the info regarding LLR. Keep me in the loop if you can. I really loved the stuff, and was so disappointed in the changes. Part of beauty was you didn't have to try things on, and so many don't let you return, so it's a problem if you don't have someone close by.
