A Thanksgiving Table Setting and a Fabulous Giveaway from The Charmed Life: Welcome to the 168th Tablescape Thursday!

Update:  Chosen by Random Number Generator, the winner of the giveaway from The Charmed Life is Donna Howell.  Congrat, Donna!

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and you know what that means---lots and lots of cooking!  For this Tablescape Thursday, I'm sharing a few pictures of a previous Thanksgiving table setting along with a wonderful giveaway from The Charmed Life that's guaranteed to having you cooking like Paula Deen!

If you watch the Food Network and Paula's show or if you read her magazine, you know Paula Deen loves her Pewter Crosby and Taylor measuring spoons. You may know Crosby and Taylor by their previous name, the Tin Woodsman Pewter Company.

Their measuring spoons are much coveted by cooks because they aren't just functional, they are beautiful little works of art.  Each spoon is hand made here in the United States and is a treasure worthy of being passed down to the next generation of cooks in your family.

The Charmed Life carries beautiful serving pieces, glassware, napkin rings and lots of great products for entertaining and home decor.  They've got all your favorite name brands.

The winner of this giveaway will choose any set from the wonderful collection displayed below.  Each set includes the "post" for displaying these whimsical spoons.  It's going to be a tough choice for the winner because they are all so beautiful!  (Click on any picture below to view that set and for additional information.)
