Thanksgiving Holiday Decorating Tips
Create an exciting and welcoming home for your Thanksgiving
festivities.
Five "Welcome to Our Home" Holiday Decorating Tips
1. Door wreaths welcome all to your home and set the stage for
celebrating. Make a simple wreath to hang on your front door
with Thanksgiving colors--brown, russet, olive green. Use tree
branches from your garden; attach a few gourds, nuts, raffia,
and ribbons.
2. Place a gorgeous mum by your front door. You can plant it
later and get flowers next Thanksgiving to use inside. It just
takes one bright spot near your front door to attract the eye of
arriving guests.
3. Wrap your front door with gift wrap appropriate to
Thanksgiving.
4. Make a "welcome to our home" banner. Add your ribbons,
raffia, and fall leaves.
5. Group vines, pumpkins, and mums for display impact near the
front entrance. Adjust the vines to add height and movement.
Fall Leaves make great interior and exterior decorations. Be
sure to hose off any bugs!
Five Holiday Decorating Tips for Your Home's Interior
1. Display vegetables and mini pumpkins on a tray. Fill in any
gaps with fall leaves, moss, raffia, or wheat. If orange clashes
with your home's interior, use green apples and spray paint
the
mini-pumpkins your colors.
2. Tie ribbons and raffia around your candle bases and around
your floral arrangements.
3. Set fall-color leaves under your decorations. Safety Tip:
Keep leaves separated from melting candle wax.
4. Extend your flower arrangements with fall tree branches. Just
one flower package makes a huge impact when you divide and
spread it around.
5. Use copper, bronze, and gold spray paint to dress up plain
gourds. Fill a glass or crystal bowl with the gourds, oranges,
and nuts.
Did I already mention gorgeous red, golden leaves? Here's
another way to add fall color: Place the leaves in your green
potted-plants.
One beautiful way to kick off your holiday season: Wrap tiny
gifts in gold foil; top off with brown and russet ribbons, and
place the gifts on the dinner plate. Your table will look
fabulous and your guests will love the thought.
Happy Thanksgiving!
