Honestly, it just makes you want to pull up a chair and stay awhile.

Sometimes the simplest ideas make the biggest impact! Try a DIY table runner that’s easy to throw together but looks totally stunning and is budget-friendly too. All you need is some autumnal colored leaves- real or faux, and mix in your favorite fall fruits for a warm, natural look that feels perfectly seasonal.
13. Orange Tablescape
Go all out this Thanksgiving with a warm, rustic “thanks” theme that celebrates the cozy colors of the season. Decorate the table and room with rich oranges and earthy browns.

14. Elegant Thanksgiving
Set the mood with a cozy, inviting glow by dimming the lights and letting warm candles do the work. Lay plenty of pumpkins down the center of the table for that full fall feeling, and top it all off with a big, beautiful autumn flower arrangement as your centerpiece. It’s the perfect tablescape for a Thanksgiving gathering that feels extra special.
15. Thanksgiving with candles
Keep your table décor simple yet sophisticated by using warm, fall-colored candles, scatter crisp autumn leaves, acorns, and maybe a few miniature pumpkins to tie it together. Let these natural touches frame your delicious turkey and other dishes without overcrowding the table keeping the focus on the food.
16. Moody Thanksgiving
Who says Thanksgiving has to be all orange and gold? Let’s turn down the lights and dial up the drama! Use deep, moody hues like plum, muted yellow, and forest green, with candles flickering like you’re hosting a cozy dinner straight out of a fall fairytale. Add a few ceramic pumpkins for a stunning finish.
17. Floral Thanksgiving
Bring a burst of bloom power to your Thanksgiving table this year with a gorgeous floral tablecloth and charming little floral “nests” cradling your pumpkin centerpieces.
