What's Hap-"Pinning"? Wednesdays {#16}

Happy Wednesday, friends!!

What's hap-"pinning" with you? You can share with Jessi and I about anything going on with you--it doesn't have to be Pinterest related!

What's hap-"pinning" with me lately?
I'm preparing for Thanksgiving! In the past two years, MG and I have had his parents and my parents at our place for Thanksgiving--last year being the first one in our new home.
This year, we're hosting my in-laws, my parents, and MG's sister, brother-in-law, 2 nieces and nephew. So, our Thanksgiving celebration grew almost double!

With that, I've been eagerly pinning away decor ideas. Here are some of my favorites:

And I have all kinds of grandiose ideas for how I'm going to set and decorate the table (probably none of which will actually happen, but hang out with me here in fantasy land in my brain for a minute). These are all super cute ideas:

Something that I'd love to get is a set of gold flatware. I keep seeing photos of it online and I'm slightly obsessed. Plus, our china has some light gold leaf'ing in it, which I think will totally go together:

What are your Thanksgiving decor plans? Do you have a set of gold flatware that you like (that won't break the bank)?

Now it's your turn to link up with Jessi and I and share what's hap-"pinning" with you!

  21. I only put a wreath out for fall this year, and I think I'm scaling down my Christmas decor too! Just too much going on this year. My next house better have a fireplace for the stuff I want to do decor-wise.

  22. I love all of those burlap ideas! So cute!!!! I might have to steal the place card idea...:) How exciting (and a little nerve racking too!) to have double the guests. Can't wait to see your decor and food! Happy early Thanksgiving! -Jess, Sweet Little Ones

  23. Eekkk I can't wait to see your final decor! We don't know anyone here yet so I don't know if we will even do a big Thanksgiving or not, but I'm thinking of maybe making a turkey with some sides just for the heck of it! Now to find a turkey, hahaha. x
