After the dining room, the living room, is the most popular space during Thanksgiving. Turn this space into a joyful yet classy meeting spot to socialize with loved ones in style.

Thanksgiving decorations should emanate those cosy autumn vibes. Few things do it better than fresh throw pillows and blankets in seasonal colours like brown, orange, and khaki.
2. FOCUSING THE FIREPLACE
Around the fireplace, a collection of Thanksgiving house decorations looks fantastic. Arrange the fireplace with seasonal items such as pumpkins, dried flowers, and candles. A sepia family photo would also look fantastic.
3. BRING THE OUTDOORS INSIDE
Look to nature for inspiration. Wreaths made of fall leaves, wheat, and red berry branches are ideal for Thanksgiving wall décor. Large branches in fashionable planters can create eye-catching living room decorations.
4. CANDLES
Thanksgiving candle decorations can be used to adorn the coffee table and add flair to the living area. Make a centrepiece out of different-sized candles in separate holders.

Bar carts are among Thanksgiving living room décor ideas. To amaze your guests, display bar equipment such as Moscow Mule glasses and a glass pitcher of apple cider. Seasonal fruit, succulents, and candles are also wonderful extras.

layers and an autumnal palette," Barfield says. "Consider
decorating your table with gourds and other vegetables as a nod to the season.
5. PUMPKINS
Pumpkins are a popular fall decoration and they work perfectly for Thanksgiving, too! You dont have to go for a bright orange one, either. Plenty of neutral-coloured pumpkins help you subtly decorate for the holiday!
6. MISMATCH TABLEWARE
Hosting a large Thanksgiving feast? Theres a good chance you dont have enough matching place settings for each guest. But before you panic, take a cue from Alison Pickart: When seating 22 people, as we had last year, I knew I
didnt have a set of dishes or glassware with enough to have everything match, she says. We leaned into the mismatch and created an eclectic mix of fancy
and casual. I stuck to three different place settings so it still felt
cohesive.
