Even when it's just my family at Thanksgiving, I always find it fun to seat everyone by using place card holders. They are simply festive and make it feel more like a holiday. You could run to Williams-Sonoma and buy some, but with a little creativity, you could make them! I quickly made the ones pictured at right using real apples. To see how I made them, read more
Off To Market Recap: Place Card Holders
So much preparation goes into the food at Thanksgiving, and the table should receive equal attention. Place cards, even if just for your close family, add formality to the meal and make it feel like a super special dinner. This year I've decided to design a table setting around the place card holders. I asked you to help me by finding a wide selection of place card holders. You looked for ones that are elegant, Thanksgiving specific, or that can be reused for future dinner parties. You saved your discoveries in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Place Card Holders.
There are some super fun ones that hold chocolates, and ones that open up to be a votive candle, but I prefer the simplicity of these golden pear place card holders. Mellie_608 bookmarked these and they will be great on a table with rich autumn colors. To take a look at all of the place card settings, browse below.

Yum Market Finds: Animal Accents
The other day I talked about my love for a lizard-shaped bottle opener, and today, as I was browsing the Yum Market on TeamSugar, I noticed a wide variety of animal extras. Animal accents add a touch of whimsy to a stark kitchen and a hint of humor to a formal table setting. Look for small pieces in the form of salt and pepper shakers, coasters, napkin rings, or place card holders. I personally adore these durable, pewter bird cheese markers that shelleymonster saved. The set comes with additional cheese labels so you can write or print your own label in a font and style that matches your party. Browse below for more animal accents.
