As the Thanksgiving holiday rapidly approaches and everyone bustles around finding ingredients for their favorite Turkey Day dishes, there are a few people who like myself spend time considering how to set the table. The dilemma of deciding what to use as this year’s centerpiece, which set of china, as well as hauling out and polishing the real silver requires its own bustling and planning. Over the years, I’ve learned that when it comes to linens and dinnerware, my tastes are relatively simple. I prefer white. A simple white dish with a classic shape gets me every time. I love how the food plates on a simple white plate. Any meal can look like a gourmet feast when you have the right type of dinnerware. It’s been said that white dinnerware is the little black dress of the table and it is true! Below I’ve collected some of my favorite images of tablescapes and place settings from around the web. Take a look and comment with how you plan to dress your table this Thanksgiving holiday.
