This Thrifted Thanksgiving Table Is Pure Entertaining Inspiration—See the Clever Finds

As the saying goes, you eat with your eyes first. Which is why how you serve your Thanksgiving feast is just as important as the food on the table. Whether you're using brand-new seasonal plates or everyday dinnerware, decking out the table to fit all the fixings is a key part of the celebration.

California-based digital creator Corre Larkin recently shared a video on Instagram of her Thanksgiving tablescape. The beautiful, eclectic outdoor setup for 17 guests included Blue Willow dinnerware, silver napkin rings and cups, classic glassware, and floral arrangements accented with seasonal pumpkins and gourds.

But as she explains in the post, the table setting is really a treasure hunt. That's because almost all of the items on the table were either thrifted, found, or gifted. "I love the mix-and-match vibe, and the colors feel very autumnal," she wrote in the caption. "Setting the tables are one of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving."

In the comments, Larkin explains that over the years she's collected pieces from Goodwill, the Salvation Army, charity shops, vintage stores, and consignment shops, adding that she found 18 of the dinner plates at Goodwill.

"Thrifting means that no two of my tables ever look the same, and it also means my table will never look exactly like someone else's," she wrote. "There is so much more character by doing it with found items."
