Vintage Inspiration Friday # 62: Thanksgiving Inspiration

This time of year it's really hard for me to hold off on decorating for Christmas. I guess it's because Fall arrives at my house on September 1, and by November 1 I'm ready to make the change. The Christmas Season just doesn't last long enough. And for all the effort we put into our decorating, it needs to last longer than just 5 weeks. I know some of you have the tradition of Christmas into January, but this girl just wants a clean slate come New Years Day.

OK, enough of my whining...so I visited Pinterest to oogle the great Thanksgiving decor and tablesettings for the holiday. Here are some of my favorite. Hope you'll share your Thanksgiving inspiration on the linky!















Following 3 images via Celebrating Home













One of my very favorite images


So let's see what was happening last week,


is really inspiring me with her gorgeous Fall Table.
Just take a look at this wonderful setting


Denise from Bella Dreams just grabbed me with this
wonderful stack of vintage suitcases all decked out.

gives a great tutorial on making a spooky haunted house.

created this wonderful  coffee filter garland
 that could be used anytime of the year!


Ann from Moonbeams and Fireflies is obsessed with Amber glass,
and she shows us a gorgeous stack of cake plates that just fit the Thanksgiving Season!


And we've all seen this amazing dresser from Lindaur Designs
 that just blows you away. 
They even have a tutorial on how to make your own.


Hope you'll link up to the party,

"anything vintage or vintage inspired" 
and all your Holiday Decor


Please be courteous and
 have a link within your post 
so others will know where to party.

I'll be joining in with these weekend parties:







Thanks so much everyone for all your comments and bloggy love,

Just know I love and appreciate you all,
AND
I have a wonderful Give-Away coming next week!!

She'll be giving away one of my zinc tag necklaces
 as part of the celebration...


So let's head on over and congratulate her.
Thank you Tracie for letting me join in for the fun!
