Bushel & a Pickle

Over the Hills & Thru the Woods

54 Comments

This song is about going to Grandma’s. That’s me!! Love this holiday that focus for us, on being with family.

Over the Hills

Over the river, and through the wood,
to Grandfather’s house away!
We would not stop for doll or top,
for ’tis Thanksgiving Day.

Our house will be full this Thanksgiving!  Five kids, 2 spouses, DIL’s mother, and 4 grandkids!  It makes my heart sing.

So grateful for our expanded dining room. There is plenty of elbow room around the table.  Our dining room get lots of use which is one reason why we knocked that wall down while renovating.

I wanted to try this tablesetting out before the holiday weekend; better to be prepared!

This table setting its a transitional one that can be for any of the winter holidays.  I collected the muted slate blue, bronze, olive  and white Christmas balls in antique dough bowl for a rustic blend that is warm and welcoming.

Table decor

Over the river, and through the wood-
oh, how the wind does blow!

It stings the toes and bites the nose,
as over the ground we go.

Next I add a collection of mercury glass votives and tall candle sticks.  Around those I placed the coffee set.  This table setting could be for any meal. Last added was the small salt aand pepper shakers.  The white with blue flower china is so pretty on this tablecloth with the accessories.

The hammer silverware is new.  It is a change for me having a more contemporary look.  Nancy encouraged me to buy it, saying my style has changed over the years.

“Don’t buy something you don’t love Mom!”

How many times have I said that to her?!

I bought what I loved.  Doesn’t it look great with the delicate elegance of the china for this fresh rustic look?

blue place setting

Over the river, and through the wood
and straight through the barnyard gate.
We seem to go extremely slow-
it is so hard to wait!

The tablecloth is from our local Pottery Barn outlet last year.  Season end sale made it very affordable.  Whenever I find one of an extra long one on sale that are beautiful I snatch it up.  The dishes are pure white with blue flowers; the creamy laced edged embroidered napkins suit with the wooden napkin rings that are from our early years.  I am always looking for fresh ways to use what’s in the cabinets!

Thanks Christmas table

Over the river, and through the wood-
now Grandmothers cap I spy!
Hurrah for the fun! Is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie!

There will be plenty of pies and everything else.

DR table and game table

Hurrah for the fun!

 

How are your Thanksgiving preparations going?

  20. I love combining Thanksgiving and Christmas décor. The two holidays have always kind of existed in one place in my mind. Two months where we get to have lots of friends and family around. I love the Christmas bulbs idea!

  26. So many beautiful touches to help celebrate Thanksgiving, Linda! I love your mercury glass ornaments and your place settings too. They’re really pretty. Haviland china always reminds me of my Granny so this was an extra special way to start the day. I miss her all the time! Hope your holiday season is filled with all good things, CoCo

  31. That tablecloth is lovely! What a great base for your pretty table. I really like the ornaments tucked into the bowl, they make a pretty centerpiece.

  33. I love the plaid cloth and the neutral tones on your table Linda! How wonderful to have a table big enough to seat so many, there is nothing better than a table full of family and conversation! I’m sure you all had a memorable time!

  35. Hello Dear Lady!
    Found your blog by hook and crook. The china pattern on your dishes are called Blue Garland by Haviland. I have some that I bought umpteen years ago as a young momma from the grocery store. Still love ’em.
    Blessings,
    d

  37. Hello Linda,

    I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving.

    What a sweet table.. I love that gorgeous tablecloth from Pottery Barn. I have seen it at PB but was a bit too pricey at the time. How lucky of you to have found it at the outlet. The ornaments add a very elegant touch.

    Have a great week.

  39. Hurrah for the fun for sure! We will have a full house of around 22 this year. I actually have to set up two extra tables. Each one will be decorated a little different. I keep it simple because we need space for the food. lol! Love your beautiful Christmas balls. They really unite Thanksgiving and Christmas! Dough bowls are one of my favorite pieces to use in vignettes. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and thanks for sharing with SYC.
    hugs,
    Jann
