Are you hosting this year’s Thanksgiving feast? If so, then it’s time to have a little fun with the holiday decorations! From brightly colored pumpkins on the dining room table to sweetly scented straw on the front porch, there are endless possibilities when it comes to decorating for the holiday. Let your creative juices flow and design a look that’s unique to your style and taste.

5 Tips for Thanksgiving Decorations

Pumpkin Candleholders

Those old, wooden candleholders you sometimes find in antique stores or thrift shops can be repurposed to create a subtle centerpiece for the big meal! You can either leave them as is or add a fresh coat of paint to liven them up a little. Place a small pumpkin on top, and you’ve got yourself a festive decoration.

Thanksgiving Mantelpiece

PorchJust because it’s a mantelpiece doesn’t mean you always need to create a grand display on it. Do something different this year and place a variety of miniature pumpkins, Indian corn, and leaf garlands along the wood to spruce up the space. Add a few twinkling white lights, and you’ll soon be receiving compliments on your ingenuity.  

Cornucopia Centerpiece

If you have a buffet-style Thanksgiving feast, then you need a grand centerpiece for the table. A cornucopia is just the thing. You can fill this basket decoration with all sorts of gourds, pumpkins, and pinecones to provide a traditional holiday look.

Autumn Wreath

While you’re busy decorating the inside of your home, don’t forget to add a little something special to the front porch. Create a welcoming first impression for your guests by placing a colorful wreath on the door. The choice of materials is completely up to you, whether it’s a burlap wreath with fall leaves and miniature pumpkins scattered throughout or a simple wreath made of curved sticks, red berries, and a Thanksgiving sign.

Leave A Message

Make some memories with your loved ones by creating a “Thankfulness Board.” This can be a pretty piece of scrap paper in a decorative frame or small bits of paper to hang on a wooden tree. Have each member of the family write down what they’re thankful for as they arrive and you’ll create a treasured decoration to be enjoyed all through the evening.
