November 2002


Welcome To Kara's Korner…

November sure came fast and even sooner Thanksgiving will be here.
We sure have been enjoying our decorated windows and door we did last month. We also have received many compliments on them from our family and friends. (See our October newsletter.)

I wanted to decorate our dining room table for Thanksgiving and came up with this idea to use more of my pressed fall leaves. When I opened my flower presses, I just smiled when I saw how beautiful the leaves turned out. With all the trees outside now completely barren it was a joy to see the colorful leaves I had collected to press. Oh how I love all the pretty colors of fall.

Now the fun part…
When I decorated our table I first placed a light solid colored tablecloth down. I then selected the leaves I wanted to use arranging them onto the table. Once you do this, place a clear heavy plastic covering on top so you can see your beautiful fall leaves. A clear plastic table covering can be bought or you can go to your local fabric or hardware store to have one cut the size you need. I just went to my town hardware store and bought some storm window protective covering (10 mil thick). Be sure to measure your table before going to your store. The clear plastic generally comes on large rolls and will need to be cut to your size. The plastic covering is great for cleaning up any spills or messes.

The warm color of the fall leaves will bring a cozy and inviting feeling to all that gather. What a conversation piece your Thanksgiving table will be.
