Where are you sitting on Turkey Day?

Do you use name tags on your tables for Thanksgiving? I think place settings with name tags can be such a creative touch to your table decor. I found some cute, simple, and inexpensive ways to spruce up your name tags for this holiday! Instead of using plane old paper, try one of these for a turkey day twist! I am sure your guests will love it too...
**use black paper and a white crayon and draw your place mats 
**tie or tac on a little tag to a pear or pumpkin
**use a simple pine cone or nut for a touch of fall
**scribble on a leaf or a pumpkin for a natural feel (one of my faves)
pine cone photo here, other photos here


p.s. Christmas is just around the corner!! Can you believe it? And the IHOD Holiday Gift Guide just came out...and my glitter nails are featured in it!!!
I was ecstatic when I saw it...and so I thought you just might like to see what other goodies are inside!
Take a peek and check it out HERE

p.p.s. I have a bunch of GREAT holiday posts and gift ideas...starting the day after Thanksgiving! I am so, so excited! I am not sure what it is about Christmas, but it just brings out the wanna-be-martha-stewart/paula deen in me :-)
