    Thanksgiving ideas: grateful boxes

    Thanksgiving gift boxes
    This Thanksgiving each guest at my dinner table will be welcomed with one of these personalized keepsake boxes. Our craft boxes are so wonderful to decorate – the perfect blank palette for adding colored paper, ribbon, rubber stamps, etc. I will also have a stack of “I am thankful for” letterpress cards on hand so everyone can share their gracious thoughts of one another and slip them into each box. It’s a nice way to engage your guests and remind everyone of the true meaning of the holiday. The boxes themselves make charming Thanksgiving table decorations and double as favors for your guests to take home.

    This extra special touch is sure to stir up smiles, joy and happy hearts this Thanksgiving!

    How-to: adorable turkey placecards

    We have a wonderful customer here in Dedham who loves to create her own special holiday cards and decorations. She visited us recently on our Grand Opening Day in search of a Thanksgiving placecard idea, perhaps a twist on our classic Turkey Placecard Kit. Along with my fellow associate, Calla, I had some fun concocting this adorable turkey placecard for her using our Owl Placecard Kit as inspiration.

    While planning our Girls Night Out: The Grateful Table we listened closely to the many customer requests we have received this year. Your wish list for a pre-holiday social crafting night included:

    • A fun evening of inspiring ideas and some “not too serious” crafting
    • Table accents appropriate for Thanksgiving, as well as for the holidays
    • Secrets for packaging “fast and easy” hostess gifts
    • An event early enough in the season to allow time to make all of the great ideas, at home
    • Ideas for building new family traditions at the Thanksgiving table…my favorite request of all
