Here are some simple thanks giving table decor ideas. Make your guests envious of your fabulous holiday spread starting with the table decor.

1. Mix Up Your Greenery

Instead of the standard autumn bouquet of flowers and leaves, why not use leaves, branches, pumpkins and some other harvest as well as tableware with plant and floral patterns for more of a landscape look. It doesn’t matter whether you put the table outside or inside – use bright juicy colors that would raise the spirits of your guests and give a touch of celebration.

Tables should always be dolled up!

Why choose a tablecloth or a place-mat when you can have both. Layering the textiles on your table is a simple way to add an elegant look, and to really spice it up, layer with different colours and textures. Using colorful linens — instead of white or ivory — can really give your table personality

3. Add Height

The table is crowded enough to feel cozy, a lot of pieces on the table are shorter and take up space. Choose some exciting décor items to accessorize your dinner table to add height to the arrangement.

It’s OK to mix in some fun tall but thin pieces to add height, like tall candlesticks or a slim vase so nobody’s view is blocked.
