I’m sharing a simple Thanksgiving tablescape I created for our small round kitchen table this year along with four favorite Thanksgiving tablescape ideas that feature pretty textures, warm fall colors, and plenty of candlelight to create a cozy, inviting look for your guests.

Putting a pretty tablescape together is one of my favorite parts of getting ready for Thanksgiving. I love pulling out my favorite linens and dishes, mixing colors and patterns, and creating simple flower arrangements that help me get the look I want. I usually set our dining room table for Thanksgiving, but this year I thought it would be fun to style our small round kitchen table for a more low-key, cozy holiday gathering. If your celebration is on the quieter side this year, this simple setup might be just what you need.

A Simple Thanksgiving Tablescape for a Small Round Table

I purchased this gorgeous green and blue block print tablecloth last summer, and I love styling it through the seasons! I kept things really simple for this Thanksgiving look on our little round table and just pulled together a few of my favorite pieces that I already owned.
