Simple Thanksgiving Shelves

Hello! And Happy Wednesday. It has been a full week of traveling to visit the grandkids. Hubby and I took 6 days off to go trick or treating, visit Beverly Hills, eat, play games, sew, shop, eat, and sing Happy Birthday to a grandson.

I am settling back at home again. Our home is filled with Thanksgiving, pumpkins, wreaths and giving thanks.

The Simple Thanksgiving shelves are in a central part of our home. You see them as soon as you walk in the front door.

I like finding old books and using them as “pedestals” for my accessories. Candle sticks work really well, too. Do you do the same thing?

I found a printable on Hometalk and was so excited to incorporate it in my Thanksgiving decor. (Especially since it has a blue pumpkin)

Using my own cardboard chalkboard I scripted “Give Thanks”. It’s good for all of us to give thanks everyday, not just at Thanksgiving. What’s that saying? “There is always something to be thankful for”? I believe that will all my heart.

I made my pine cone and pecan garland last year for Christmas decor. I have used it for lots of other holidays, as well. It’s my frosting on the cake for the Simple Thanksgiving shelves.

I love accessorizing with my book page wreaths. The pages are aged and a little torn for texture. Using painted and accessorize clothes pins to hang my Give Thanks Chalkboards worked perfectly.

Filling my green bottles with old, broken sticks was just the added touch I needed to finish off the look I was wanting for this year’s Thanksgiving decor.

I hope you are giving thanks today and everyday for all that you have.

Leave me a comment telling me what you are thankful for. I would love to know!

If you are looking for or wanting new traditions in your family, come back on Friday for loads of ideas.

A handful of my blogging friends and I are putting together some special Thanksgiving Traditions for you. I know you will enjoy every minute of it.

I will see you back here then…

Make it a lovely Wednesday full of thanks!
