12 Tabletop Buys for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving — and Friendsgiving! — celebrations will be here before you know it! It sounds like I might be hosting our friends this year, which has me scouring the internet for fresh serving and decor pieces. I love the idea of mixing this brass garland (which can easily be reused for December hosting) with a mismatched set of candlesticks — either sourced from your local thrift shop or already curated right here. And can we just take a moment to admire that turkey serving dish. It looks like it could be a vintage find!

15 Finds for Thanksgiving

November 11, 2020 by jessica Leave a Comment

15 Fun Finds for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is going to look a bit different this year with families opting to forgo large celebrations in favor of small gatherings with just those in their own households. While you may be sad about missing out on cherished traditions, it doesn’t mean you can’t make the day special. I rounded up 15 fun finds for Thanksgiving, below, to make this year’s holiday memorable. (And be sure to order early since shipping is expected to take longer this holiday season!)

  1. If you’ve wanted to try gold flatware, now’s the time! Especially when there’s an affordable set with service for four.
  2. Vintage-inspired glasses in a great autumnal hue.
  3. I just purchased this linen tablecloth for our Thanksgiving table. It comes in at under $30 no matter what size you need!
  4. This inexpensive gravy boat has a beautiful shape.
  5. I love the black rim on these classic appetizer plates.
  6. A set of small, versatile bowls. Use them to serve appetizer-sized portions of soup, set out dips, or to corral nuts and jams accompanying your cheese board.
  7. Save yourself the trouble of making your own turkey brine and pick up a jarred one.
  8. This sweater is a perennial favorite of mine. It’s incredibly soft with a flattering relaxed fit, making it perfect for Thanksgiving. There’s a striped version, too!
  9. A set of taper holders in various heights makes decorating the table a breeze.
  10. I have this platter and it’s great because its simple design coordinates with just about any decor.
  11. Clearly these earrings aren’t just for the holiday, but their chunky shape would look beautiful with sweaters all season long and they’re not too fussy to wear while you’re cooking.
  12. Cloth napkins in a striking, yet classic windowpane design.
  13. My favorite coasters continue to get better with age. I’m probably going to order a second set.
  14. An elegant, heirloom-quality carving set.
  15. Finish the meal with a slice of pie, presented with a vintage server.

And if you’re curious about the items above, I’m wearing a J.Crew sweater, Julie Vos ring (c/o), and a Monica Vinader ring that was a Black Friday gift to myself last year. The mug is an old one from Target. I’ll be spiking its contents later today. 😉

The Weekend Guide

November 18, 2016 by jessica 3 Comments

The Weekend Guide 11.18.16

MAKE
My favorite part of Thanksgiving, next to the stuffing and the pumpkin pie, are the appetizers. This recipe for figs with bacon and chile looks absolutely decadent.

LEARN
As much as I love oversize statement earrings, I don’t wear them very often because of my [probably irrational] fear of becoming an old lady with sagging earlobes. Well, it looks like fillers and anti-aging care might be able to take care of that.

SHOP
Dave is still pushing for a holiday trip somewhere tropical. I’m on the fence mostly because I’m a sucker for tradition, but if he happens to convince me, I’m definitely snagging this swimsuit for the getaway. Even better, it’s part of J.Crew’s weekend sale with 30-40% off holiday-ready items with code FESTIVE.

MEET
Artist Hank Schmidt in der Beek travels to majestic outdoor locations only to paint the pattern on his shirt.

WATCH
If there’s one thing that’s guaranteed to make me smile, it’s a Pixar film.

STOP
Don’t make these common mistakes when cooking your first Thanksgiving dinner. And, if you need inspiration for the menu, head here for a roundup of recipes.

SHOP THESE SALES
It’s clearance time at The Outnet. I picked up this neoprene pleated skirt in grey.
Pick up a Buried Bauble at Bauble Bar and save 25% on the rest of your order.
Save 50% off select items at Ann Taylor. I’m loving this cable-knit sweater.
Save up to 75% at Neiman Marcus’ clearance sale. This party dress is both adorable and affordable.
Take 50% off one full-price item at Banana Republic and 40% off the rest of your purchase.
There’s a flash sale at Pottery Barn just in time to snag a bar cart.
Save up to 70% off resort styles from Calypso St. Barth. How fun is this bag?
If you’re a Gap credit card holder, you can save 50% off  your purchase.

EARLIER THIS WEEK
Bedazzled my new winter coat with vintage brooches.
Fell in love with these preppy-meets-glam pieces.
Shared our Copenhagen experience.

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
