OK so I posted this in the irrational irritations because I hate starting a new thread... but I'm going to delete that.
ok so It's for three tables. Two tables have white linens, one has the espresso linen (two tables of 6, one of 4) I have a "buffet" table you can't see in the pictures that is also espresso.
Colors: Espresso, stealish blue (grey blue with a metallic tint), some orange
I'm thinking a larger bouquet in the center of each table with browns and oranges.
I also have wine bottles that I am thinking of painting the same grey/blue color (I happen to have that paint right now) and bought the tall (cream colored) candlesticks to stick in them to add different heights and a romantic feel.
Thoughts?
I have a "thanksgiving" board on my Pintrest with some decor ideas. Lemme know what you think.



 ( I'm actually going to rent white chairs because I don't have enough and want them to match)
Yeah.. I go a little overboard with dinner parties />_< lol

    yeah. I have a burnt orange linen (you can baarely see it in the background.. it's just a little linen that I'm using on one of the buffet tables) so I'm going to play that up. Honestly I don't like orange and the "fall colors" but I DO like espresso and blue.. so that's where I'm goin with it.. idk... I want to have full centerpieces but I don't want them to be too busy and cluttered :/
    Stil need to finalize the menu too ack! I need to make your apple stuffing to see if it'll work for the day and to have knowledge of the runthrough before I do it for that day.

    Maybe something like that.  I am not sure how "crafty" you are.
