FROM BROOKS AND JIL of FOR THE LOVE OF JOY BLOG,

JACK, ANNABELLE, LAMBIE, AND ALL OF OUR FARM CRITTERS.

MAY YOU HAVE BLESSING UPON BLESSING AND

THANKFULNESS IN YOUR HEARTS TODAY AND EVERYDAY.

Let’s make today fun and light shall we?!? I am sharing a farm to table style setting live from Brookview Farm in Goochland, VA! This farm is chock full of history and doesn’t disappoint in views, that’s for sure.

Farm to table dinners are a hot ticket item these days. Who doesn’t love a good farm dinner? And knowing me, I’m going to go all out on the table setting. Y’all know me!

Rustic colors mixed with natural elements such as magnolia from our neighboring farm and the delicate details of the plates all bring the Thanksgiving table together. 

And pinecones… my favorite free decorating material.

Never underestimate the value of natural materials. God gave us the best Hobby Lobby store there is! His creation.

Straw bales, burlap, and corn, OH MY!

Don’t be afraid to set a table. I know some may think you don’t have the materials and what not. But, when in doubt throw in some greenery or pinecones, or whatever you have. Pumpkins and gourds from the store work great and are a classic.

Pay attention to the details. A table setting goes beyond the tablecloth and place-mats. It’s the little addition to the plate top, the sprinkling of materials throughout the table, and even mixing up the textures and colors that make a huge impact.

Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
