Decorating your Living Room for Thanksgiving

The living room is usually the room that guests first see. This is the reason why you want your living room to give a Thanksgiving welcome with its style and decor. A thanksgiving theme would include fall autumn colors such as deep reds, warm oranges, golden yellows, earthy browns and forest greens. You can also create the feeling of fall by using pine cones, acorns, gourds and pumpkins to create centerpieces and decorative accents. One of the easiest ways to transform your living room for Thanksgiving is to change the color of your drapes into a richer fall color. If you have blinds, you can hang a drape on top of it to create a more cozy feeling in your home. You can also purchase or make your own fall wreath using branches, twigs and fall leaves to hang on your wall.



Decorating your living room for Thanksgiving is a great way to celebrate the changing seasons. Involve everyone in your household and get into the holiday spirit.

Getting Ready for Fall Decorating

Start getting ready for fall with these quick tips for transitioning your home from summer to fall!

1) Replace candles, table linens, centerpieces and other accessories with accents in warmer colors like burnt oranges, reds, golden yellows and greens.

2) Add a wreath to your home decor. Fall leaves accentuated with berries makes a perfect wreath to welcome the beautiful fall season.

3) For outdoor entertaining, greet your guests with plant arrangements using fall leaves, indian corns, mini pumpkins and gourds.

4) Decorate your mantle with a garland of fall leaves. Finish off with candles or small vases in fall colors.

5) Create fall floral arrangements for your entry way or dining table. Fall flowers can include late summer flowers such as sunflowers and carnations. You can also include berries and other earth-toned blooms and grasses.

6) Take down thin laces and sheers and replace them with rich, earthy, fall color curtains.
