# 55 Spruce Up Your Thanksgiving Table

 Use candles and vegetables to create a unique centerpiece. Use green beans, asparagus, artichokes , and other harvest finds for a colorful, edible centerpiece.
Small gourds and flowers are with a few pinecones and foliage for a beautiful centerpiece.

 The vibrant, diverse colors of Indian corn perfectly represent the color plaette of fall, and you can put them to use in a no-fuss candleholder.
 Repetition of color -- whether with pumpkins, foliage, and candles -- creates a unified fall decorating scheme that accents all of fall's bounty
 
Leaves work just as well in decorating schemes on the first day of autumn as they do during Thanksgiving gatherings. Once trees start to drop their pretty foliage, snip a bunch of large and unusually colored branches, and accent the decoration with a bowl or two of gourds in colorful containers.



 Create an eye-catching display from a basic cylindrical glass vase, nuts, and sunflowers.
Color-coordinate your tabletop decoration with your serving dishes to create a classy, monochromatic fall display. Place white gourds at different levels in white ceramic dishes.
