Re: How Do You Decorate For Thanksgiving?

I usually have a lot of Fall decor outside and some inside my home. This year I never got to the Fall decorating (took a trip to visit one of my DD's and her family, then was just busy), so this year I am just going to do Christmas decorating about a week earlier than normal. We are going out for Thanksgiving dinner anyway and am not expecting any guests during the normal Thanksgiving holiday, altho I usually decorate for us. As for your actual question (lol), it's just nice tablecloth, candles, pumpkins, gourds, fall leaves, and a VPH turkey I bought a few years ago. Sorry I got offtrack there at first.

I don't add anything to my autumn decor that is specifically for Thanksgiving. However, I do have special tableware that I use for Thanksgiving dinner.

Re: How Do You Decorate For Thanksgiving?

I don't decorate for Halloween but I put out fall décor first of October and leave it until Thanksgiving evening; Christmas goes out the next morning.

I have 4 large pumpkins, 2 mums, and crotons in pots on my porch and steps. My foyer table gets a large wreath of gourds on a stand with my collection of small pumpkins and 3 flameless pillars under it; LR mantel and hearth have candles and gourds, pumpkins....DR has fall leaf garland on the chandelier but I keep the table free for all the food!

I put out a few turkey things (mostly for my 3 year old). However, the main décor is usually just what I have up for fall.

I don't decorate specifically for Thanksgiving. I have some Fall things that stay up through Thanksgiving.

Re: How Do You Decorate For Thanksgiving?

I don't add a lot of décor for Thanksgiving, need all the space for food. Smile I leave the Harvest décor in the dining room and it's Christmas everywhere else.
