Setting the Chinoiserie Thanksgiving Table

Beginning today, we will be looking at beautiful ways to set your table for Thanksgiving with Chinoiserie flair. Then a week from tomorrow, November 25, we begin a month long series on decorating your home for the Christmas holidays Chinoiserie Chic style.

Here are two great Thanksgiving ideas. These Imari placemats above are sensational. I saw them in person at the Caspari store when Kate and I were in Charlottesville. And at $38.50 for a set of four, they are very well priced. Below is a darling set of mini turquoise Buddhas from Gump's, $28.00 for a set of 4. They would be so fabulous placed around the table for Thanksgiving and then switch them to the mantel for Christmas.
