A thanksgiving dinner can be an elaborate feast that you have prepared many weeks ahead. You want to impress your guests from the moment they step past the front door. Your house will be neat and tidy, and there will be scents of spiced pumpkin and turkey in the air. Your dining room table will be surrounded by chairs, with only the best dinnerware on it. If you’ve been struggling for decorating ideas, then your best option will be to choose the best Thanksgiving centerpiece. Just where do you start? Consider that your floral decorations should provide a warm and inviting atmosphere for your guests to enjoy. Festive arrangements are just one aspect of Thanksgiving that they’re going to love about your home. Usually the Thanksgiving centerpiece goes right in the middle of your dining room table, but don’t forget about other locations too. You may wish to have a smaller arrangement for the living room coffee table, or the end tables. If you have a large mantel, you can place one up there. Do you need ideas for your centerpieces? Often fall colors are the best option. Think deep rustic reds, pumpkin oranges, dusty browns. Your arrangements may have some small ornamental pumpkins in them. You can add in other types of autumnal produce too. Gourds are also an option. Some florists like to spray paint gourds or small pumpkins to create a metallic glow in the arrangement. Candles are also a good option for your Thanksgiving centerpiece. If you go this route, ensure that they’re fully encased within their glass or ceramic container, and that they have a sturdy base. You can use real candles, or some of the battery-operated ones they sell today. Many people like to place pillar candles within a large glass container, then pour chestnuts, walnuts, or popcorn kernels around the base. This not only holds the candles in place but also provides a touch of fun and elegance. Floating candles is also another option. You can place cranberries, rosemary sprigs, twigs, or pebbles inside your candle holders. Don’t forget how lighting can complement your Thanksgiving centerpiece too. There should be just enough light to show off your display, but it shouldn’t be so bright that it’s glaring and uncomfortable for people’s eyes. If you do use candles, then dim the lights. Don’t forget to decorate the other parts of your home. Once cooking is done, you can decorate your stove top or your countertops. Even the top of the fridge can have a large Thanksgiving arrangement on it. You should also consider fragrance. You don’t want your Thanksgiving centerpiece to have an overwhelming fragrance that is unappetizing. Keep scents muted. If you are using candles, ensure they are unscented, so they don’t compete with your Thanksgiving feast.
