Create My Thanksgiving Table for $25.00?

By 20 Comments


I am starting to get excited about Thanksgiving.
Since my husbands work schedule is demanding, we will be spending the holidays here.
Although I should probably be concerned about the food, I can’t stop thinking about how I want to decorate our table.
Unfortunately I don’t own much in the tableware department, and my budget doesn’t accommodate running out and buying everything new.

So, I have made a personal challenge for myself…I plan on creating my Thanksgiving table from scratch for under $25.00.
This weekend I was lucky enough to snag a couple hours to myself to do a little thrifting.
I purchased my dinner plates, salad plates, and a couple of decorative dishes.
So far I have spent $7.00.

I plan to keep my color scheme black, white, gold, with a pop of color in the flowers.

Speaking of flowers, I love the idea of using a pumpkin for the vase.
Although I think I will paint my pumpkin.
I know I want my table cloth to be black and white, but I can’t decide if I want to stick with stripes or maybe go with a fun little dotted pattern.
I am really excited to put it all together. 
Do you think I can do it for $25.00?!
xo,

    Yes, I do think you can do it for $25! Can’t believe the plates you found for $7! Awesome. Wrapping paper could be a cheap table cloth/runner to add your black and white pattern or even scrapbook paper as chargers in a cool black and white pattern. Can’t wait to see it!

    Absolutely! I like the color scheme as well. You can add a pumpkin, but, maybe paint it white or gold for the centerpiece? That would look cool! Looking forward to the rest of your ‘finds!!’ 😉

    The inspiration photos are gorgeous! I definitely think you can do it for 25 dollars if you already own your plates and such. It’ll be interesting to see how it turns out.
