Deck the table?

When planning my holiday table for this year, all I could think was metallics.  Aaaannnnnd...this is why I love West Elm!  They completely answered my call.  I also don't really like the idea of using "holiday only" dishes (that's the saver in me coming out).  I love the fact that you can use the metallic "holiday spread" for Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and fancy dinner parties.

I also thought this through when I got my everyday dishes.  I got a basic plate and bowl and now all I have to do is switch out my salad plate and Voila!   All is new!

Here are two options for my holiday salad plate.  I want 100 of each!  Feel free to vote.  I might not be able to choose...

While day dreaming about the perfect thanksgiving table I started to realize that with my guest list the size of my table was not going to cut it. I decided to make a new table top with seating for 8-10. Here is the old table.

Here is the inspiration for the new table. I love the color! This little guy is from World Market.

All I did was take the top of the old table off, strip the old stain off, and reuse the legs for my new table

 top.

Yeah! Now everyone can have a seat for dinner.

 Keep checking back for new additions to the Thanksgiving Table.

The chairs are next on the list!!!! I am super excited!!!!
