Nautical Wood Decor

Add the feel of the ocean to your nautical celebration with these wood decor pieces that include an anchor, boat, steering wheel, life ring and fishing net. These cute pieces range in sizes from 5.3 - 12.6" tall and make great centerpiece items.

Gold Glass Votive Candle Holders

These beautiful mercury candle holders look beautiful interspersed between dishes and decor on a Thanksgiving table. The sophisticated look of these candles make them beautiful if candles are glowing in them or not.

Rich Colored, Heat Resistant Outdoor Tablecloths

These tablecloths are spill-proof, they come in 10 rich colors and 5 common table sizes, and they are great for indoor or outdoor parties that need a touch of elegance.

Swirl Pattern Heavy Duty Tablecloth

Nothing saves Thanksgiving more than a tablecloth that doesn’t rappels water and stains. Whether plain or patterned, these tablecloths save the day.

Wine Glasses Goblets 12 oz

Any beverage looks amazing in these gorgeous glasses, which we think makes them perfect for Holidays, Special occasions, elegant dinners and events.

White Porcelain Dinner Plates

A basic white plate fits into any theme, which is why we love them. These plates and bowls have a little curve to them, which not only adds interest, it helps keep in sauces and gravies. The plates also come in lovely colors for variety.

White 10 oz Porcelain Bowls

These pretty dessert bowls are classic and fit into any decor, which is why we love them.

Round Plastic Party Dinnerware

After making all of the food for Thanksgiving, dishes are usually the last thing you want to do. These Laura Ashley plastic plates, tumblers, and silverware are the perfect solution. We love the elegant colors they come in. They look beautiful on a table and clean up has never been easier.

Plastic Portion Cups with Lids 5.5 oz

These plastic cups are a great way to package fruit, granola or treats for on-the-go events, lunches, or as favors for guests by adding a little ribbon or other small decor items to the cup.

Plastic Cups with Lids 16 oz

We love a good plastic cup that has a lid for drinks for an outdoor party, as a to-go drink cup and for a movie night (less spills means less clean-up!). These cups are strong enough to not cave in while picking up and do not tip over as easily as others we have tried.

Large White Serving Bowls

These clean design, white bowls bring a modern elegance to a special dinner party. We love these for side dishes including green salads, fruit salads and hot dishes.
