Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and setting a beautiful table in advance is a family tradition. For every holiday, my grandmother always set a formal table with fine china, sterling silver, crystal glassware, beautiful flowers, and crisp linens. The last few years have been a bit more casual with dishwasher-friendly Woodland Spode. How do you like to set your Thanksgiving table? Below, I have gathered 35 traditional Thanksgiving tablescapes for inspiration. Enjoy!

Thanks for this, Andrea! My job is the centerpieces this year at my brother’s house and there are a lot of great ideas here! Happy thanksgiving – xo
Wow, that was an eyefull! It’s wonderful to see epergnes put to good use. I’ve never seen a table with 3 of them, and it looks great. So many choices, and all of them beautiful. Those Caspari placemats are so pretty. I used to love visiting their showroom. Their range of offerings is tip-top. And I love the pomegranates. Such a pretty fruit. So many ideas here! Thank you, and Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much for including my table in this beautiful line up! Lots of inspiration here, and I’m honored to be included. Happy Thanksgiving!
What a great compilation of styles….some new with some old! Would like to be a guest at any of those dinners. Am always partial to blue and white paired with “persimmon” colors. Antique silver epergnes are an all time favorite. Cut crystal to drool over….oh my!
Thank you for this post. Happy Thanksgiving!
Andrea this compilation of warm welcoming and beautiful Thanksgiving tables are a feast for the soul. Thank you for your great eye and for including our table in your feature. Happy Thanksgiving!
Gorgeous! You have outdone yourself!
Yes thanks for all the lovely photos of the Thanksgiving holiday table. Next year will be my year to host and I have ideas from this blog. Yes I plan on using my Spode Botanical woodland Spode. Long live the beautiful tablescapes!
