You're wondering, how do I decorate my living room for thanksgiving? Well, my name is Lori Randall with Simply Divine Events. And I'm going to tell you how to decorate your living room for thanksgiving. What you're going to want to do, first of all, is tale a look around your living room. If you have any like pastel colors or you know, any wild colors that don't really go with the whole fall thanksgiving. Look, you're going to want to put those things away. So if you have any pastel pillows or throw rugs. Go ahead, put those away. And bring out any of the, the reds, the yellows, the more fall colors. Pillows and kind of, throw them around. That way, so you're kind of, putting that little look to thanksgiving in your house. And then set in the tone for the fall. Also if you have any like floral scents, may be potpourri or something like that. Or your fragrance air spray. Get rid of all your floral scents, you're going to want to bring out your more cinnamon smells. Or even setting out a nice urn of hot apple cider. And having that aroma kind of, in your living room. So it's really set in the tone. That this is fall and this is thanksgiving time. Also you can just put little pumpkins around on your coffee table. Some gourds, pine cones. You can even get a nice topiary tree here. And put that maybe, on an end table in your living room. If you have children, another thing that I see people do. That we kind of, do is get the kids art work that they have. and post them up, maybe in a window or something. Or it can be a bulletin board. You know, somewhere kind of, in your kitchen or your living room. Put those up so it's so you know, you're displaying the kids art work. As well as, you know, you're kind of, just getting in the whole spirit of thanksgiving. So those are some ideas on how to decorate your living room in your home, for thanksgiving."
