Before the holiday, every family carefully prepares the house for Thanksgiving. Most of us usually choose a natural theme, which symbolizes the harvest and the arrival of fall. The most popular decoration in every home on the eve of the holiday is a bright paper or fabric garland on which each family member can write their words of gratitude for the blessings received this year. You can hang this above the entrance or fireplace, as well as on the walls of the dining room.

The main attribute of the holiday is, of course, the turkey. It is generally accepted that this particular bird was shot on the first Thanksgiving holiday of the English settlers.

2. Design a place for guests

We celebrate this holiday with a wide circle of relatives, so we should make sure that each of them has a place at the festive table. The best place for this is the living room or dining room, where there is a cozy fireplace. You can use the fireplace as a bright attribute of the holiday, decorating it with various autumn elements on top. It is worth taking care of the dishes that should match the holiday.

Ordinary autumn leaves can become a special decoration for the festive table. In addition to other decorations, the leaf is one of the main ones. It can be put on a tablecloth or even decorate festive dishes with it.

You can collect ingredients from your garden, arrange them in a group and fasten them with a length of twine. Place the natural arrangement on the table as the centerpiece or on a sideboard surrounded by votive candles. To create an interesting centerpiece, look for brightly colored leaves, branches covered in lichen, and textural elements like pine cones, seedpods, and berries.

5. Decorate the table with candles

You can decorate the festive table not only with autumn foliage but also with creative candles that will give your home a cozy atmosphere. Such a Thanksgiving decoration will become unique if you create a whole composition from candles. To do this, you can use a variety of improvised elements, such as cones, acorns, leaves, dried flowers, or nuts.

You can also make a simple and inviting centerpiece with a tray of flickering candles. Choose candles of different heights, and put them in a base of fall leaves, small pine cones, or unshelled nuts. When you’re ready to bring food out, move the candle tray to a coffee table.

6. Use a table runner 

Another element of Thanksgiving décor will be a festive table runner. It is used as a separate element or in combination with a regular tablecloth. In this case, the table runner should contrast in color with the main tablecloth. It is better to choose fall fabric colors so that they convey the whole palette of autumn. The table runner can be decorated with your own composition of candles, a toy bird made of cones, leaves, a, pumpkin, or other autumn attributes. In the very center of the narrow tablecloth should be the main dish.
