Thanksgiving Table Napkin Ring



Inspired by one of Melissa's invitations where she used the Leafy Tree as an envelope seal. If you're ever at the A Muse shop, you must see her book of invitation designs! The leafy tree is one of my first and favorite A Muse stamps. I just love fall and most of the decor in my home is based on some sort of leaf theme and I usually sprinkle some silk fall leaves on my Thanksgiving table to give it a little color. I live in the desert, so many of the trees here are actually still green but we are starting to see a few changing to yellow. Not the same fantastic "show" of color that happens in cooler climates, but I'll take what I can get! Stay tuned, I have another Thanksgiving table idea to share soon!

I'm a leaf lover, too - recurring theme in my house. I went to an auction once and saw someone's old silver with leaves, and knew I had to have it. Love the botanical / natural look!

The cards and napkin rings are beautiful. thanks for sharing the font, too!
