There aren't too many treasured holidays that set the stage for family togetherness much like Thanksgiving. All gather together enveloped in the warmth and aroma of a delicious feast that was days in the making.  The passed down recipe for cornbread stuffing is equally as important to the table you set it on, so make it beautiful!  Create a decorative tabletop using feathers, flowers and foliage.

Here Are 3 Centerpieces That Will Transform Your Fall Table

Nature - Pine cones  pheasant feathers and magnolia leaves placed in shallow, oblong decorative bowls will give a festive flair to your holiday spread.  Lay the large magnolia leaves on the bottom of the bowl so they slightly overhang the sides.  Place a few pine cones atop those with a few interspersed Ringneck Pheasant Feathers and…voila, a simple decoration that won’t inhibit the table view. If the feathers are too long you can simply curl the feathers and tuck it back into the centerpiece.

Minimalist- If you are a minimalist at heart, upcycle vintage glass bottles to place in the center of the table.  Simply fill the vase with wild turkey wing feathers to get a sleek showpiece decoration.

Floral- If you love flowers then this easy to accomplish arrangement will be a beautiful centerpiece.  Purchase pink or purple flowers, incorporate various pieces of foliage and add a grouping of feathers such as peacock tail feathers.  Go for natural peacock feathers or brown and orange bleached eye feathers for the theme. This bouquet is stunning, while both simple and inexpensive to create.
