Turkey Day.

By: Jen Shoop

The holidays are approaching — woohoo!  My favorite time of the year.  We’re finally nearing a socially acceptable date to start (er admit we’ve already been) playing Christmas music.

First, how adorable are these Rifle Paper Company invitations from Paperless Post?!

A couple other beauts to set your turkey table:

+Monogrammed linen tablecloth (on sale for $39);

+Golden pheasants for a lovely tablescape ($39);

+We love our Staub Dutch oven (on sale for $280)…but check out the kitschy amazingness of this Martha Stewart home pumpkin casserole dish (on sale for $49);

+I love a festive placecard like this set, similar to the set shown below($6.75 for 10) — also check out the coordinating gift tags in case you want to send guests home with leftovers or a pumpkin baked good — or arrive bearing bottles of wine/treats;

+How amazing would it be to serve soup in these individually-sized pumpkin bowls (on sale for $6/each)?!  Alternately, use these ceramic pumpkin-shaped placecard holders I found on Etsy ($6 each) — OR this Martha Stewart tureen (on sale for $54!);

+A bronze booze bucket (on sale for $34) — always great to have set up in the kitchen for easy guest access; Mr. Magpie and I love to serve sparkling wine pre-dinner, and my current favorite is Raventos i Blanc cava…delightful;

+Harvest wreath ($95)…also love this dried olive + eucalyptus style ($69);

+I HAD to have these leaf placemats (on sale for $20 for set of 4…too good):

Now, don’t forget to scour Etsy for some awesome finds.  I mean, this ceramic turkey tray is only $15!  (P.S., Also check out this affordable variation from Martha Stewart Home, on sale for $25.)  And this ceramic turkey candy dish is only $12.  And how about these ceramic turkeys ($48 for set) for your centerpiece?!  I gotta brag: I managed to find this adorable set of vintage mini turkeys to use for my place settings.  I also contemplated these brass candlestick holders ($22 for set).  I’m pretty sure there are amazing ways to style these.  Or, how about these brass pineapples ($112)?!  OMG.  Perhaps not seasonally appropriate, but I really, really want one for my bar area / as home decor year-round.  Lastly, this fun little shop carries the cutest seasonal pencil sets ($12 per set):
