In the blogging world, this time of year we already are working on Christmas ideas as well as testing recipes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. When I had the flower shop, I often felt like I had a split personality because one part of the shop was decorated for Christmas and the other part was decorated for Fall!
Today, I am sharing a few ideas that I hope will help you finalize your decorating & hosting plans!
Easy Decor Ideas for Thanksgiving
Ideas for Quick to Make Centerpieces
If you are looking for a quick and easy centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table or you need a hostess gift to take with you when celebrating at someone else’s home, a Fall themed European Dish Garden could be the answer!
I love the peach colors in this dish garden. All of the details on how to put this together can be found here: European Dish Garden Featuring Fall Poinsettias
Another simple centerpiece would be to add silk flowers to a vase or pottery pitcher and then add a few pumpkins and gourds. I used faux gourds on my dining room table one year. They just happened to match the water pitcher my Mom used when I was a child.
An old tool box can be turned into an Autumn centerpiece by filling it with branches of faux bittersweet. I used an old garden tool to prop the lid open!
A really simple centerpiece can be made using a dough bowl or trencher as your vessel. I know, you are shocked that I might have a dough bowl centerpiece idea!

Table Setting Ideas
The rust color of the bittersweet helps pull out the rust tones in my china. Even though I have had these china dishes for years, I still think they are so pretty!
Take a good look at the dishes you are planning on using. Maybe there is a color in the dishes that could be accented by a particular flower or stem of berries.

Pumpkin Shaped Rolls
I “borrowed” this idea from my friend & mentor, KariAnne Wood of Thistlewood Farms. They are so easy to make using frozen roll dough! Simply click on the link below the photo and you will be taken to the recipe!

An Easy to Prepare Pumpkin Cheesecake
This delicious Harvest Thyme Pumpkin Spice No Bake Cheesecake looks like you spent hours preparing it! The recipe for this dessert can be found here: Harvest Thyme Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
The same cheesecake mix can also be served as a dip! Use assorted cookies or fruit as dippers for a unique pumpkin flavored dessert!
I hope I have sparked your creativity and perhaps relieved some of the stress of finalizing your Thanksgiving plans!
Whether you are hosting or have been invited as a guest, I hope you enjoy your thyme with your loved ones this Thanksgiving!
