Please Join Me for The Scoop #196

Hi everyone and welcome back to The Scoop! It's been a busy week here with the little grands all excited about turkeys and Thanksgiving! And I have to admit that it's my favorite holiday, too, with the family gathered all around the table. And...it's also time for those of us who make a lot of our Christmas decorations to start thinking ahead! Yes...the holiday season is upon us and I am also betting that many of your shares today will reflect just that, so let's get on with the party!

Welcome back to The Scoop!

The weekly party featuring the scoop on the best from around the web!

We are

Hi everyone! Thanks so much for taking time out of your busy week to join us! November has arrived and soon the holidays will be fast upon us. I don't know about you, but I am in full Thanksgiving mode and even starting to think ahead about Christmas! And I have a feeling that there will be lots of inspiration for both among today's shares from you, our oh-so-talented guests!

So I am excited to share a quick and super-easy idea for creating some special accents for your holiday table...my EASY POMEGRANATE CANDLEHOLDERS! They only take five minutes to assemble and are guaranteed to have your guests ooohing and ahhhing! You will find a complete tutorial HERE as well as links to more fabulous Christmas-y ideas from our very talented group of bloggers at Celebrations of Home!

And with Thanksgiving only a few short weeks away,  I have gathered up all of my favorites in one place for my THANKSGIVING TABLESCAPE INSPIRATION...some elegant, some rustic but all easy and inexpensive to create! I hope you will check them out!

It's always so hard to choose, but  here are a few of my favorites from last week's party!

Kandice from JUST THE WOODS shared her amazing make-over of this empire-style buffet! Gotta love the color...so rich!

Oh, my! Emilie at OH MY! SUGAR HIGH used a waffle iron to make these sweet chocolate chip waffle cookies...definitely on my must-try list!

I loved this idea from Jenny at BLOOM DESIGNS...Thanksgiving place cards that serve as napkin rings! You can edit them to suit your guest list, too!

This idea has me thinking that I need to plant an herb garden...wonderful herb basting brushes from Daune at COTTAGE IN THE WOODS. They would make wonderful hostess gifts, too!

And finally, if you are hosting Thanksgiving for the first time, or even if you are a pro, here are some wonderful tips from Erin of South to Southwest that she shared on KRYSTAL'S KITSCH.

And now...I want to see what you have to share, so let's get on with the party!
