Thanksgiving tablescape with metallics

I have a pretty Thanksgiving tablescape with metallics with Decoart (sponsored) to share with you today!

Our October challenge was to use their line of Dazzling Metallics paint line to help create a Thanksgiving tablescape.

I turned our table in the other direction to mix things up a bit, and I really like it this way! I’ll keep it… for a while.

 I have a little decorating hint for you. Turn your table runner the other direction.There’s nothing that says it always has to go the same way!

For my Thanksgiving tablescape,

I have wooden pedestal stand  that was perfect for the center. I added some faux fall leaves, and painted some faux and real mini-pumpkins with the Dazzling Metallics.

I used both Copper and Rose gold on orange pumpkins ,and it gave them a lovely warm tone with the metallic paint over the top.

I had some wood candle sticks that I added a touch of Emperor’s Gold to at the base on on the top.

 I also brightened up the brown battery operated candle by brushing  Copper and Silver Sage, and Champagne gold on the outside.

I love stemless my wine glasses, but I don’t like how they sit directly on the table and can leave a wine ring.

I used a wood slice with a craft store stamp and Emperor’s Gold to make stemless wineglass coasters to solve that problem. The stamp and gold makes  them a bit fancier than plain wood slices.

I also used the Copper paint and some inexpensive plain, white napkins  to make some hand-stamped napkins. You can add fabric medium to the paint if you are afraid of it washing out.

I love being able to add personal touches to my decor. It makes it so much more special that way.

I love that out local grocery store has such beautiful bouquets. I love adding fresh flowers to a room.

I love the contrast of copper color and the flowers, and to carry the metallic theme through the room.

I know Thanksgiving seems a long way off, but we are already making plans in our family. I am going to make an apple crumble for sure, and I just ordered our turkey.
