Thanksgiving DIY Banner
by
Amy Stafford
I have been admiring the Thanksgiving Banners on several websites and Pinterest for the last weeks. The only problem is the banners are meant to hang on a wall or mantel, and neither of those choices appealed to me.
I really wanted a tabletop banner that I could sit on my foyer table and I couldn’t find any on-line so I decided I would make up my own. Along with welcoming guests as they come through my front door with a whimsical banner I also wanted to use natural elements right from my backyard to add seasonal character. I decided to collect dried twigs, pinecones, seed pods, and feathers to create the perfect fall entry.

A piece of cut burlap acts as a runner under the tabletop banner adding to the organic feel of the display.
Use sand and smooth river rock to stabalize the small terra cotta pots that hold your banner.
Scatter pine cones around the table followed by a few candles and any thanksgiving decor you may have. I added two cute little turkeys I found at Target.
