The holidays are coming ! I can’t believe Thanksgiving is next Thursday ! Did you made plans yet ? Are you dining out , dining in or hosting ? Either way, spending time with the family on Thanksgiving is always the best.
In my case, I always host Thanksgiving ever since my first child was born. Me and my husband don’t have a big family. So at that time, we wanted to celebrate our baby’s first Thanksgiving in our new house. After that, we just keep hosting every holidays in our house year after year. Yes, I’m not gonna lie. It is exhausting but also rewarding. The memories we have in our humble home every holidays is beautiful and i’m very grateful. Also, I feel like i’m in charge when it comes to holiday entertaining. So i just accidentally took that role and when i do it, i sometimes go a little extra. I’m quite crafty when it comes to entertaining.
So this year’s Thanksgiving, I would like to feature my Charcuturie board as my centerpiece. It’s like last year’s ( post here ) but different. I added more colors and jewel tones in this tablescape. I also want to keep the floral arrangements to be minimal or at least below eye level, that way it’s not hard to have a conversation to the person across the table. I want it to look nice but also practical and the charcuterie board is a perfect centerpiece for that reason. We all know that food is a natural conversation starter and good presentation is always delightful.
Here’s a printable guide for creating your charcuterie board.
