AN INTIMATE  THANKSGIVING DINNER CELEBRATION

This Thanksgiving will be a more intimate celebration, no extended families coming together to share their gratitude. The good news? Thanksgiving turkey and pumpkin pie have not been canceled. The bad news? You may not be squeezing yourself around a table with 10 of your favorite relatives and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving 2020.

When planning your intimate “Turkey” dinner  you should appreciate that a round table works best for intimacy. It is one of the best shapes for small gatherings because conversations are easier, and the setting feels relaxed and more personal. The shape also saves space and facilitates a simple flow throughout the room.

Another option is an expandable dining table. While it can be extended to comfortably seat all the family members, it can also be downscaled in size to accommodate an atmosphere of intimacy while still feeling both open and airy.

No matter which shape or size table you decide on, you should always pay special attention to your tablescape. Your centerpiece is the focal point of your Thanksgiving dinner’s dining table. From holiday centerpieces to elegant centerpieces with unique place cards, to stylish dinnerware and crystal glasses. Your table décor should be attractive and inviting while being completely distinctive to you and your home.

Eat, drink and be merry. 

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
