I'm Thankful for these ideas...

With the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons quickly approaching, I thought I'd alternate on Tuesdays between "Simply Lovely" posts and Pinterest inspiration!


I love this mantle idea...and wondering if I can recreate it in the next couple of days!


I love the idea of a thankful tree...I'm planning on beginning this tomorrow at dinnertime, using these thankful tags (a free download!) from Jones Design Company:


I printed mine out on normal white card stock, and the linen detail and colors are SO beautiful.


I just think this take on pumpkins is adorable.  It's not too late either...I have a plain pumpkin sitting on my front porch that is dreaming of being dressed up for Thanksgiving!


If you have a tree that still has gorgeous leaves (like we do in Oklahoma right now), consider this easy garland tutorial. The kiddos could totally take on this project!


I'm thinking something like this would look lovely on the coffee table in our sunroom or as the dining room centerpiece for Thanksgiving dinner.


A smaller version of these would make darling place cards...another great project idea for the children!


And I think these are adorable place cards as well...and the link has 25 more craft ideas too!

And these coloring pages would be fun for the younger children...on the school days leading up to Thanksgiving!

For more Thanksgiving and autumn ideas, you can check out my "Thanksgiving" Pinterest board! And please share any links to other Thanksgiving ideas in the comments...I'd love to find other creative ideas to pin!
