In my younger days, I worked for the best floral shop in San Leandro, CA.
My Boss, was a very petite French Canadian woman called Marge.
She once commented in the late 80's that no one celebrated
Thanksgiving like they used to, the orders for Thanksgiving
arrangements were down and spirituality it made her sad.
Thanksgiving is a time to stop and say thank you to God and your family.
Just say Thank You.
Let's Bring Thanksgiving back!

Cushion candles, pumpkins, and berry garlands with Spanish moss to fashion a simple, beautiful centerpiece.The tutorial for the arrangement is at the idea room.

Autumn Icon
The cornucopia, spilling over with the fruits of harvest, reigns as an icon of autumn. Derived from the Latin for "horn of plenty," this basket is the most traditional of Thanksgiving centerpieces. Classically, it overflows with fruits, vegetables, gourds and Indian corn.
