Tomorrow is the big day (SO excited). So I thought I’d toss in one last-minute super-gotta-have-it-adorable Thanksgiving-themed item. When you pull your perfect turkey out of the oven with these babies, please pause with a big tooth-baring grin for a photo opp. (-Allie)
Turkey Felt Potholder and Mit, $3.95 and $4.95, Crate & Barrel

Thanksgiving is nearly here (eek) so I thought it appropriate to create a dining room palette this week. Because the holidays always makes me reminisce of years passed, I opted for a soothing retro vibe. I love the freshness of this pear green and how well it plays off the rich blue and warm beige. The light fixture (a remake of a classic midcentury fixture) gives the space a bit of authenticity. Happy Thanksgiving! (-Allie)
