Cornucopia Centerpiece for Thanksgiving DayWritten by Candee Stark
As we enter into month of November my thoughts turn towards Thanksgiving and everything that this wonderful holiday has to offer. It is a time for spending time with family and friends and for counting many blessings past year has brought to us.Like most people I like to decorate for holidays, and Thanksgiving is no exception. Indian corn, pumpkins, gourds, wheat, fruits, nuts, and anything that symbolizes a bountiful harvest are at top of list for things I like to include in my decorating scheme. The best way to incorporate all of these items it to design a cornucopia centerpiece for Thanksgiving Day. What is a cornucopia?Cornucopia is a Latin term derived from two words, cornu meaning horn and copia meaning plenty. The horn of plenty, as it is also known, is shaped like a horn or cone. It is usually shown overflowing with nuts and fruit. (Freeman, Morton, S. The Story behind Words. Philadelphia: Isis Press, 1985) This everlasting symbol of abundance is easy to create and will become another important tradition you will want to share with your family each year.
