To make this picture placecard: Start with 2-3" tall image of each guest. Photocopy, then use a glue stick to attach a piece of card stock to the back of the copied image. Once the glue's dry, cut out the guest's silhouette with an X-Acto knife. Then use a kitchen knife to make a 1" vertical slit in a pear and slide in the image.

These printed paper napkin rings do double duty as a placecard. Print your design on heavyweight paper, cut into strips, and wrap around the napkin and secure with double sided tape.

I love this idea! Fortune nuts filled with holiday wishes are so easy to make. Carefully break walnuts in half by running a knife along the nut's natural seam. Remove the meat with a nutpick. Print out fortunes on colored paper, cut into strips, and curl around a pencil. Then place them inside the nuts and tie matching halves together with kitchen twine.

Thanksgiving Movies

If you get sick of football, pop one of these Thanksgiving themed movies in after dinner. I love Home for the Holidays and watch it every Thanksgiving. My husband thinks I'm crazy because my favorite part is when Claudia (Holly Hunter) is walking home from the store in her mother's giant stadium coat and her brother (Robert Downey Jr) is in the background driving back and forth in his car over and over and over. That just cracks me up every time.
