My husband and I took a dinner plate to the biggest pile of debris in our neighborhood and found the perfect oak log! 1-2 inches of reveal on all sides of the plate is standard for a charger.

Tip: Pine or cedar will have too much sap for a project like this, go with oak. It’s a beautiful look!

Adam used a chainsaw to cut the log into 1 inch think rings. I left the bark in tact. Once they were wiped down, they were perfect for our Thanksgiving table this year.

For the centerpiece, I added pumpkins from my porch and brass candlesticks from the mantle. I only used four wood chargers, and went with a more glam look on the heads of the table. Mixing materials and layering unexpected pieces is one of my favorite ways to decorate the table. Pumpkins in non-traditional colors are both unexpected and chic. I love the way these compliment my regular home decor too.

If you’d like to see how I put it all together, check out my “wood chargers” highlight bubble on Instagram.

Thanks for stopping by, Jamie xo
