Friday Eye Candy: Thanksgiving Ideas

November 4, 2011 by Courtney 16 Comments

I think November and December are my favorite months of the year. Although truth be told I LOVE summer, and spring is great . . . .and fall is so crisp and cozy. I have never really been a “favorites” girl. I can’t really be pinned down for a favorite color, candy bar, drink, style, etc. You know those chain emails that go around asking you to name all your favorites. Well it gives me major anxiety.  I am not sure what that says about me, but I do love some great Eye Candy. Today I am giving a nod to all things Thanksgiving related. As much as I want to start thinking about Christmas, I am trying to slow down and enjoy the month of November. So without further ado, here are some somewhat simple ideas: Pinned Image via via and printable Vintage Paper Leaf Wreath martha stewart and how-to here sweather wreath Just a Girl and Tutorial I love all things sweater related. You can see my upcycled sweater here. Our Fifth House and tutorial here 10-31-11 043 scented pine cone wreath via Hi Sugarplum and tutorial happy friday have fun getting your Thanksgiving décor on!

    I'm loving the pinecone wreath. Here's to slowing down and enjoying the month.

    Happy weekend!

    I am a little obsessed with that feather wreath. And I so agree with you about the seasons. I live in a high tourist area and I had an older traveling couple ask me yesterday my favorite time of year here….I realized I couldn't really answer it. The more I thought about it, I realized that I love all seasons and the warm months (while I enjoy every moment) make me look forward to the cold months (which I so enjoy too!) and then it is a great little cycle. As much as I love Christmas–I am really trying to enjoy November too.

    I love those Thanksgiving decor photos! So much eye candy. =) I don't usually decorate for Thanksgiving because I can never think of what to do, but these are some great ideas.

    Haha, I am the same way. I don't have favorites I have moments. Moments of loving one thing until my mood changes and I find another fun, beautiful thing. I think it just says we are loving life!

    I agree also! I don't like to pick a favorite. Every time the seasons change, I'm excited about the new things to come! If you talk to my mom, she says that I was NEVER good at making decisions. Apparently, I couldn't even pick out a piece of candy at the store when I was told that I could get one. haha Love your inspiration pics! I'm hoping to add more festive items for Thanksgiving this weekend. That printable would be a nice touch. Thanks!

    OOOO! Feeling the Thanksgiving inspiration…usually it's kind of the forgotten stepchild, wedged in between Halloween and Christmas, but this makes me want to show it a little more love! That martha wreath is so adorable! Have a great weekend, my lovely, thank goodness it's here!
