Thanksgiving Home Decor Tips
From creative centerpieces to your overall thanksgiving home decor tips, here are some of the best decor tips that would go well with your Thanksgiving menu:
Create Your Menu Display
If you‘re hosting a large group of people or you want to go the extra mile, spend a little time creating or displaying your menu. You can create one menu on each table or place a small card menu – which you can totally DIY! Your guests will surely look forward to what is on the menu.
Place Cards
Get creative with your place cards, and instead of written cards, place individually framed name cards with their pictures. It will take a bit more time than usual. However, your guests will appreciate the work and thought behind it.
Centerpiece
One of the focal points of a Thanksgiving table is the centerpiece. Unleash your creativity by crafting your centerpiece. Choose flowers that you love and bundle them with different ornaments.
Set Up A Mini Buffet
Rather than setting up all the food on your table, you can create a food station where your guests can pick their food. You can also decorate your food station with more flowers or even a cake.
Dinnerware
Thanksgiving, as we know it, is centered around food. With that said, if you are going to splurge on something (besides food, of course!), splurge on dinnerware! Pick something classy and timeless so you can use it in the future.
Statement Pieces
Go with the whole shebang and bust out some beautiful statement pieces. Grab some nice fixtures at your local thrift shop and repaint them. Now, if you’re running on a tight budget, you can reuse last year’s pieces and repaint or add some design to them. If you want something simple and rustic, paint your ornaments white, or if you’re going for chic and elegant, go for gold.
In the end, we have to keep in mind the true essence of Thanksgiving. These Thanksgiving home decor tips are just an addition to this holiday. I hope these tips inspired you, Happy Thanksgiving!
