Transform Your Thanksgiving Table with Garrow Interiors
Thanksgiving dinner is just around the corner, and if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the thought of creating the perfect table, let Garrow from Garrow Interiors be your guide.

Meet Garrow of Garrow Interiors
Nashville-based design firm, Garrow Interiors specializes in refined interiors that complement clients’ lifestyles and personalities. Garrow creates spaces that mix traditional and contemporary elements, where clients see a reflection of themselves and their family in their space.

Start with What You Have
Your cherished china—whether it’s your wedding set or a family heirloom—can be the star of your table. For example, Garrow used her neutral-toned wedding china to set the foundation of her tablescape. And even if your china boasts bold colors like blue or pink, you can still make it festive for any holiday. The secret? Pairing it with complementary tones and textures to create balance.
Simple Elegance with Easy-to-Find Items
When it comes to place settings, a little creativity goes a long way. Garrow selected elegant napkins from Amazon with embroidered chocolate brown scallops and folded them into playful turkey shapes. To enhance the look, she tucked feathers into the folds—originally meant for another part of the setting, but they fit perfectly here. (Pro tip: don’t be afraid to pivot your plans as inspiration strikes!)
For added warmth and charm, Garrow used amber coupes that cast a golden glow and paired them with local finds like festive place cards from Hester & Cook in Nashville. These small details bring a cohesive, personal touch to the table.
The Centerpiece is Key
A captivating centerpiece can transform your table, and it doesn’t have to be complicated. Garrow recommends starting with a filler flower to add volume to your arrangement, then layering in blooms in your chosen color palette.
For her Thanksgiving table, Garrow chose warm oranges, purples, and a touch of light pink—because, let’s face it, pink adds a delightful twist to tradition. Height is key for drama, so include tall flowers or even branches with golden and amber leaves from your backyard. Ordering flowers ahead from your local grocery store ensures you have everything you need to create a show-stopping arrangement.
Layering for a Cozy, Festive Look
If there’s one golden rule Garrow swears by, it’s layering. Each added detail creates dimension and makes your table feel thoughtfully curated. Here’s how she layered her table:
A classic runner as the base.
China as the centerpiece of the setting.
Florals and candlesticks for texture and ambiance.
Elegant dinner napkins folded with care.
Personal place cards for that extra-special touch.
These details may seem small, but they create a dramatic, cozy effect that your guests will adore. Thanksgiving is more than a meal—it’s an experience. With Garrow's touch, your table will be a beautiful reflection of the love and gratitude this holiday is all about.
