EDIT: I"ve seen several comments on how there is no room for the food! We do ours buffet style! We make way to much food for it to all fit on the table, even when there are no decorations! LOL Plus it's such a pain passing food around! Buffet is the way to go and then your table can stay nice and pretty! 🍁 If you do want to put your food on the table, I suggest having a centerpiece in an easy to remove way, such as in a tray , etc..

[@marikotrue3488]

The lack of space for food was also in my mind so good to know it is fine! I liked the Target runner better as it was a simpler backdrop to showcase that great decor and plating. The pottery barn runner would be good for when you need that seasonal color, but are not expecting 6 for dinner. This Pottery Barn vs Target video was fun (and informative). Maybe do it again for all the yearly holidays?

[@melodierussell3825]

I totally loved both but lean a little more towards the Pottery Barn table linens. Either way I agree that buffet style is the way to go! 🦃

[@dik6165]

Us too I’ve always gone all out on my table decor and we have dishes a mile long, so all dishes are in the kitchen for buffet style. I do put an ice bucket and tea on the buffet and decorate around it and always keep the salt and pepper and butter on the table to pass.

[@albertbranca4644]

S

[@massabielle2821]

Yes!!!!! Buffet style! And the guests who are unable to ambulate, there are plenty of folks who will bring their food choices to them. Everything was very pretty, very festive, but the first table setting was perfection………🥰

[@klj9057]

I like the Target one more. It’s also really nice that you’re very down to earth about everything and don’t appear as if you’re trying to impress the audience. You genuinely show us a few options and the pros/cons of each. Nice!!

[@katedorman7042]

@C&J Main I wondered the same thing!! So pretty.

[@pattipurvis3582]

I found a very large scarf at Goodwill that looked like the Pottery Barn scarf for $3.00!!! I'm so excited to use it with your idea!!

[@daughterofelroi4369]

Good for you! I wouldn't pay $90 for a tablecloth.😬

[@mjohnson6841]

Plus she could have gone to the fabric store and bought a yard of plaid fabric. Also could have gotten nice glassware at the Dollar Tree.

[@victoriajohnson3034]

I learned as a single mom to buy decor day after holiday. Put straight in holiday bin. Gave affordable new decor to use every holiday.

[@donnaandrews4795]

Yeah, that PB table rocked! That plaid was so pretty and just looked much richer. Well, because it was! 😊

[@underthemermaidmoon]

My fav is finding things at estate sales and consignment stores. I just can’t justify spending PB prices on things that you can find for so much cheaper!

[@d.d.mac.3773]

The practical side of me screams Target, but my heart is with the Pottery Barn tablescape. I love the muted fall colours of it, plus I think the black ribbons look great with it. I try to save red for Christmas.

[@denisevalentemcgee4802]

Yes I agree!! While I can’t justify the price, and buy only a few pieces from there once in a blue moon, no one does it better than Pottery Barn…… the quality, high end design, etc.

[@tamerajordan2982]

I loved The pottery barn one. BUT I really love target. Target looks more formal! Great job. Love how you showed us the difference.

[@tammyrowe4225]

I love the pottery barn table, but would never pay that price. I searched ‘oversized blanket scarves’ on Amazon and found some really pretty ones between $10-20. Thank you for the idea! I loved how you dressed your table!

[@bevwyckoff2451]

I'm a seamstress so I've made many of my napkins to coordinate...and have gotten many tablecloths from thrift shops!! So many good ideas. Even get asked if I got new dishes- table is always so differrent. Loved the ribbons and candles!

[@evie7845]

I buy ALL my tablecloths and napkins at thrift stores!!!

[@Living_Your_Best_For_Less]

Wow! Great video! Those PB prices are insane! I'm sorry, I'm all for making investments when and where it counts. Both were beautiful but I prefer to keep $100.00 in my pocket! Zero people are going to know the difference. You should have done a 3rd one though, a thrift store one for maybe $10!

[@rosekisiel3383]

I really loved the Target one better. The simplicity of it and the backdrop with the blessed and black ribbons was super cute.

[@debrawilhelm773]

You did a great job on the tablescapes! It would be fun to see a Dollar Tree table scape for Thankings and Christmas also.

[@karenadams138]

In the overall scheme of things, my choice is Target... Pottery Barn's plaid table cover makes it too busy for my eye, but, when using the more subtle cover from Target, more accessory pieces as well as other pieces on the buffet and table tend to stand out more. Atleast to me.... but both are so pretty.. you have a great decorating eye Leslie!! Very nice, thank you!

[@pattycarosi9618]

Target gets my vote because I think the Pottery barn one is to busy for my taste. Both are beautiful!

[@diannedeloose5173]

I totally agree Karen.

[@_JanetLouise]

it's awesome how you create these beautiful settings for your family & friends .... creating lasting memories

[@leem200]

General Dollar had a fall throw that was oranges and yellows would be a perfect replacement for table cloth. Looked allot like pottery barn one. It is amazing and love the candles.

[@bettyelewandowski1789]

I actually liked the Target version better. I didn’t care for the plaid from Pottery Barn. This was a fun video to watch!

[@margaretmega688]

I love them both so much, PB is my favorite, but Target throw is really pretty also.. I really love those candles. you have such a lovely home.. I love your blouse too..

[@tracieandreski9599]

Love the Target table. The price makes me love it even more. I am new to the channel. Love how your real about not having enough of something or if something got broken etc That happens in real life all the time and I love how you advise on how to deal with it. ♥️

[@Clutching.My.Pearls]

Target and/or Home Goods always wins for me. I like to use bold napkins on a soft colored tablecloth for a nice contrast. Your tablespace is very pretty and the little turkeys are the icing on the cake.

[@sharonwilliamson4592]

I prefer the plaid myself but found a very nice Pendleton throw at the goodwill for six dollars. I’m so happy. Beautiful table. 👍💕

[@lynnloehr1566]

I like the Target one better. With all the pretty things to look at on the table, the Target one has just enough color to be an accent. Love this video.

[@teresarichmond7752]

Great job, what makes the table for me was the pears in the pots, the thankful signs and the centerpiece!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@pamfrey1528]

Target for the win. I just saw your comment about buffet style I just assumed you were going to do that. Since you have such a beautiful table scape Thank you for sharing

[@vivianstidham9596]

Hi Leslie. I couldn't justify or see that big of difference between the two. I like the Target one! My gosh Leslie, you could make a silk purse outta sow's ear! Lol! You amaze me with everything you do! The fall colored blouse with your hair up...well, you look like a princess! Seriously! I hope you and Jason have a relaxing, wonderful holiday season! Love to you both from Texas. 😘🇨🇱

[@jdsbforjesus]

Both were pretty. I like the pottery barn table scarf but would do all napkins solid color. Such a beautiful table for Thanksgiving.

[@TraditionsByTheSeasons]

First and foremost, you look beautiful. Love your top. Secondly, both tablescapes are amazing. You always share the best ideas. Thx for sharing! Xoxo 🤗🧡🍃🍁 🦃

[@ACharmingAbode]

Well now I’m blushing ☺️ thank you so much 🧡

[@jofinney9543]

I always have kept the food in the kitchen and loaded the plates in there and bring them in ! 😀 This looks amazing 👏👏I love the double glasses ❤️

[@espegoodbread3554]

Pottery Barn is my favorite, but pricey. Great vedio.

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you 😊

[@ellenwhidbey]

They were both beautiful! I know that is entirely because you have a great eye for decorating and you can make anything look professionally done! Thanks for sharing!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you so much 😊

[@victoriajohnson3034]

Love the turkeys!

[@crochetuli]

I prefer the Target one, 2 main reasons: Target throw has fringe on all 4 sides and the orange and red border colors are repeated in the pears. Plus it is "calmer" in pattern. BTW The plates are also available at The Christmas Tree Shoppe (don't know if you have one of those in your area, in some places tit's also called "ThisanThat", it's a subby of Bed, Bath and Beyond) ands I have seen the plates also at Burlington.

[@Nausome_nana]

Great idea to use a throw for a table cloth. I love throws and table cloths can be so boring so now I can justify buying some new throws because they have a dual purpose 🤣🤣. We don’t drink wine but we do use fancy stem ware to make our faux wine( white grape juice mixed with ginger ale ) feel fancy for the grandchildren 🍷 Both tablescapes were pretty but I would never pay $90 for a throw and $ 50 for napkins.💰❌🤣🤣

[@lizadeleon5401]

Although I’m a PB addict I can say that if you don’t say which is which, it’s practically impossible to say. I loved both but the practicality of the Target version makes it my favorite.

[@ACharmingAbode]

It’s the hundred dollars savings for me too!!!

[@gloriarodriguez1115]

Loved both settings and I love the elegant simplicity you go for !!!

[@debcar8024]

I really like both, but the target one is my favorite. Love the burgandy napkins. As always, you don't disappoint!!

[@stacyd892]

I liked both, but saving money is what makes it such a fun challenge! The savings is so significant here. Without lessening the tablescape. Great Video!

[@cocoloco9173]

Pottery barn took this one, and it’s a special occasion so splurging for that special family time is worth it IMO!! Family photos for sure at the dining table this year!!!

[@virginiaschwartz9190]

Gorgeous both of them

[@jo-annmaruszak9885]

I love the painted flower pots. Definitely going to do that. Thanks. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jenniferhamblin8152]

Both are absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

[@maggiefoers2038]

I loved the second table setting xx

[@sharoncresenzi3016]

You have a way of making both look beautiful! ❤️

[@lexijones8414]

I love the black additions

[@jaysmith2522]

I totally love your style like the target cloth better because the little pears pop on the cream color more than the plaid. i also admire you you are so kind and always bubbly.

[@connielahman5725]

Both settings are fabulous and welcoming.You are so talented.💕

[@rosiebaucum1962]

Both beautiful! Love the battery op tapered candles!

[@staceymccoy8747]

Leslie....you are so sweet and authentic. I love how you make mistakes and don't edit them out! I am really enjoying all of your videos! Be well sweet lady!!

[@amyberg4922]

Love them both!

[@pricedesign8805]

They both look great!

[@lebaneseamerican8584]

I love them both! I like that you appreciate well made, beautiful things, be it from PotteryBarn, Target, Hobby Lobby, etc. I like the mix of price ranges. I certainly don’t shop all in the same place, & the average person doesn’t either. You make it all work & it’s awesome! Thank you for your videos, God bless you & your family!

[@gabellagoosa2]

Black and white ribbon looks great

[@kmorris2238]

Both are so nice! 🦃

[@susanwagner9443]

Both are very lovely!

[@carolnewby8747]

I am all for saving money. When the decor can still be beautiful. Both are beautiful.

[@dianaeverett2221]

Both are beautiful

[@vonniechannel2818]

Thank you for sharing your ideas 💡

[@vanessaburckhard3081]

I never get tired of your neat ideas. Very clever. 💕 Love you.

[@cindyrasley627]

Love both options 👍❤️

[@cdesjardins1988]

I liked both! Beautiful! ❤

[@denisejohnson9013]

I love both. I like the budget for my purse!

[@hugsandkriss7959]

Both are beautiful 🙂 Thank you! ✌️💖🙏

[@racheljones3697]

Love them both 🍂🍁

[@patriciaadams3149]

Both are very lovely, can't decide. Thanks for sharing different ideas! 🍂🧡🍁

[@terrypierce1661]

I like the target one because it matches the chair backs

[@traceygartrell3419]

Loving your inspiration

[@donnaryan6711]

Always a buffet at my home!!! Everyone helps THEMSELVES. Great job So.pretty!

[@mynacopeland7232]

Both are beautiful!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you 😊

[@daleclark8872]

I LOVE your decorating style. Everything is always so beautiful!! 🍁🍁🙏❤️

[@leoismydog3091]

Love everything you do and I think you are just the sweetest 💛

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you 😊

[@Fabby47]

Really beautiful !

[@kaymack5304]

They are both beautiful, but I could never see myself spending $140 for a table scarf and 4 napkins. I am so impressed by people who can create such a beautiful display. Nice job!

[@kimbibbs5700]

I LOVE the Target one!! I just loved the throw and the napkins so much better!!

[@outdooroutfitters3658]

Great video! Thanks for sharing your ideas.

[@dixiebullock5060]

Just too cute!!❤❤🎃🧹🎃🙏🙏

[@lindaga820]

It looks so beautiful! You are so talented!!

[@sunnyd5535]

Target for sure! Looks great and the "thankful" on each bowl blends nicely with the black and white on the mantle. Nicely done :)

[@marylouhassler-wright6059]

Love your tablescapes! Beautiful color scheme! Turkey’s are very cute! Both tablescapes are gorgeous!

[@NanettePatterson302]

Lovely 🦃 I like the pattern on the first design but I also like the second look as well.

[@eileendestefano4253]

Loving this!💕

[@pattyrosales-rasband4048]

I like both!

[@jackiem.dearroyo8739]

Beautiful!

[@rosaliefunk1629]

I like the Target one better. With less pattern, it looks calm and the accessories pop. Great ideas! Thanks.

[@traceydriver3171]

Thanks for the links & ideas! I ordered the dishes and a few more things to change up my fall/Halloween table to strictly thanksgiving ! 🤗

[@beverleythomas113]

I love both of them 🍂🍂🍂💕💕💕

[@darlenepearce6440]

Your table and buffet are decorated beautifully

[@anitanavarro4121]

WOW! I loved the table. I did prefer the pottery barn color over targets. But what I loved most was terracotta pot with fruit and all the decorations on the table. You are so creative.

[@jacquelinew3881]

Those are both so gorgeous! I love the PB one because of the plaid and muted fall colors, but I can’t see spending that much so I’d end up at Target or Kirkland’s trying to find something similar too. Great video and you look stunning as well, love that blouse!

[@elizabethwright4784]

The black stripe ribbon is elegant!

[@rosieroberts6738]

Your Target Tablescape is absolutely....beautiful!!! Love it!!!🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁

[@coracarp8859]

I like the Target one, love the way the color of the napkins pop!

[@carolekellypearce1667]

Loved both throws, but the least costly one would be the one I chose. The other decorations are so pretty. You really have a wonderful talent for decorating!

[@ladypaz]

You’re the best! I just ordered the tapered candles! I’ve been looking at them, then seeing your table…..well , had to get them! 💖

[@sandramoore3317]

I prefer theTarget one. I also think the ribbon works well with it. Love your channel and all your ideas!

[@sharanlesmeister5548]

Loved them both! My favorite item was the turkeys! They are soo cute!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thank you Sharan! Gobble gobble 🦃😁

[@msbeaverhausen7226]

Even with taking the cost out of it, I prefer the Target throw because the neutrality makes it more versatile and I like that there is fringe on all four sides. The accessories don't get overwhelmed like they did with the pattern on the Pottery Barn scarf. I also think that the buffet blends in much better with the Target throw. So what time is Thanksgiving dinner?😋😋😋😋

[@veronicaboydwash3265]

Even those the Pottery Barn is nice,i love the Target one the best.my sister,& mom(retired).are professional designer's, but we shop,high end shopsbut, fleamarkets,antiques shops, also,but our favorite places for shopping, is!Home Goods, Hobby Lobby,Dollar tree,and Kirkland's also, Dollar General. We mix and match alot of things.but most important i think is using what you got,things you have collected over the years.in my family there are three others sister and our brother,we all live in different areas and states,but two of us live three hours apart, so we can still see each other and our mom.and switch up items in our homes if we are tired of items especially around holiday times.its the best!to change up our homes, with out spending tons of money.and each of our homes are beautiful that's what friends say,we say we are blessed with a eye to decorate with family.

[@teresalacubana4035]

I like the 2nd tablescape. I must add that I'm loving your blouse😍

[@suepete]

Excellent videos! Never thought to use a 'throw,' or something similar, on a dining room table. Looks awesome!

[@carolnewman8590]

Thanks for sharing!!!

[@tinajongeling3523]

Love the look of the target one best beautifully done
