Thanksgiving Decor Finds That Are Seasonal and Stylish

Long before you have to think about defrosting the turkey, you can indulge in your excitement for Thanksgiving dinner—and yes, of course, the company of your friends and family—with some festive home decor. As soon as you've handed out the last piece of candy to a trick-or-treater, consider it time to put away the ghosts and skeletons and break out the turkey candle holders and plaid-designed throw pillows. Pumpkins, as long as they haven't been nibbled on by squirrels, can stay all fall long.

To save you time—you have a Thanksgiving dinner to plan!—we've done the shopping for you. Scroll on for our favorite Thanksgiving decorations, then add a few of them to your home. However you decorate, whether through tea towels, wall art or centerpieces, here's betting you'll be delighted every time you open your front door now through the final piece of pumpkin pie.

Happy Thanksgiving, indeed!

​Delivery Time:​​ One day you're handing out Halloween candy to trick-or-treaters, then you blink and it's time to break out the Christmas ornaments. November flies by, so before buying season-specific decor items, keep a close eye on when your purchase is expected to arrive. If it's on backorder or not scheduled to arrive until the day before Thanksgiving, you may want to consider a different product. The sooner you buy it, the more time you'll have to enjoy those Thanksgiving vibes all November long. So, what are you waiting for?

​​​​Style:​​​​ Thanksgiving decor varies widely in style. Do you prefer traditional, vintage vibes, like something your grandmother would have owned? Or do you tend to veer more modern? Whatever your style, there are plenty of Thanksgiving decorations on the market for you. You could decide to design your home with general fall decor, like pumpkins and a seasonal color palette (plenty of oranges and browns), to spread cheer all fall long, or you can get Thanksgiving specific, with turkeys and "grateful" signs. There's no wrong way to decorate for Thanksgiving; just be sure it fits your style so you'll happily pull it out of your decorations bin year after year.

​Price:​ Think about it: How much do you really want to spend on an item that'll only be on display for a few weeks, tops? Thanksgiving dinner itself is pricy enough, so consider what you purchase carefully before you blow your budget on decor. We selected a variety of modestly-priced items below that'll add seasonal cheer to your home without cramping your credit card.

Read on for 11 of our favorite Thanksgiving decoration ideas that are both fun and affordable.

One of the easiest ways to integrate Thanksgiving decor into your home is with a throw pillow or two. There's no hammer and nail required, plus they're practical, comfy to lay your head on (while watching ​A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving​, perhaps?) and a breeze to store away once it's time to break out the Christmas decorations. Society6 carries hundreds of joyful Turkey Day-themed options from independent designers, but this orange pumpkin and gourd one is our favorite. You can choose between an indoor or outdoor style, as well as four different sizes. All include the pillow insert, so there's no need to add one of those to your cart, too. Simply toss this on your couch and consider your decorating—at least where your living room couch is concerned—done.
