Thanksgiving Plates

Thanksgiving plates remain an important part of a delicate and yet sophisticated table setting for the holiday. Because this occasion is based around food, it's important the proper flatware and utensils are placed on the table for guests to enjoy their meal the best. Pick many sizes plates and different types of glassware to suit the needs of everyone at the table.

A plate should include enough space to pile food on without feeling cramped. Choose those with brown, orange or neutral details that work with the fall theme. Other plate suggestions include leaves and gourds. Offer plates for salad, appetizers and the main course. Choose different patterns and colors that interchange and complement each other in a place setting.

When choosing Thanksgiving plates, also think of glassware. There should be a variety of glasses in different types and sizes for many types of beverages. The tumbler, perhaps the most popular type of glass, offers a flat-bottomed surface of drinking space without a handle. Choose various colors and shapes to complement any table setting for Thanksgiving! For an orange choice, opt for some from Denby. Its earthy and fresh look combines with the fall and creates a fun, festive plate from which to eat.

A great choice for Thanksgiving plates remains serving plates. Whether classic white to match other table accents or a more festive color, opt for one that gives the most space. For a three-tier variation, try one from The Cellar. It offers three separate tiers of plates to serve and is collapsible for easy post-party storage. Pick and match utensils, flatware and glasses to complement the classic white look.

Finish the table setting off with an appropriate tablecloth that matches one's plates, glassware and other decorations. Placemats are also an extra added touch that goes a long way to bettering one's guests experience during the thankful season.
