Don’t know what to put on your Thanksgiving table? Don’t buy anything! Just cut it from your yard or the nearest roadside wooded area. A little civic pruning never hurt anyone, right? One of my favorite traditions is heading out with the girls & a pair of shears to forage for our centerpieces. I usually cut a mixture of herbs from the garden, twigs from the woods & anything we have that still has color. Dried hydrangeas work awesome, too! Oh, and don’t toss those front porch plants. I pulled my ornamental cabbage & tied it to popsicle sticks with floral wire. See below of my favorite natural additions to a Thanksgiving table & Pin this post for items to plant that make great additions to any inside arrangement.
