12 fresh decorations for your Thanksgiving celebration
A roundup of subtly-festive accents for Thanksgiving.
For Canadians, Thanksgiving feels like the start of the holiday season. What does that mean? We'll be hosting lots of parties and could fall victim to hostess-fatigue. Keep things exciting by opting for decor that deviates from the typical cliches (pinecones, pumpkins and leaves, we're looking at you) and offers a not-so-obvious festive feel.
From pretty signage to beautiful table centrepieces, we’ve rounded up 12 pieces of decor for a chic Thanksgiving and beyond.
1. Fruit salt and pepper shakers
While we may be foregoing the typical pumpkin decorations associated with Thanksgiving, we can still find ways to acknowledge harvesting season. Take these fruit-shaped salt and pepper shakers for example—they still feel festive while the metallic finish offers a modern edge.
Fruit salt shaker, pepper shaker, and tray, $40, zarahome.com/ca.
2. Candelabra centrepiece
This is a bit of an investment piece, but it’s the only centrepiece you’ll need for all of your holiday dinner parties. This gorgeous gold candelabra holds six tapers—and we suggest using different coloured candles for an artsy look.

3. Linen tablecloth
Keep things fuss-free and lay out this beige linen tablecloth for an effortlessly chic Thanksgiving.
Washed linen tablecloth, $70, hm.com/ca.
4. Gratitude sign
Hang this sign on your front door or in your kitchen to spread warm, thankful vibes.

5. Vintage-looking wine glasses
Swap out your basic wine glasses in favour of something a bit more "dressed up" with intricate etchings and pretty colours.
Wine glass, $9.25, vdevmaison.com.
6. Trendy marble dishes
It’s all about the dips during this time of year. Serve them in these pretty solid marble dishes that have a trendy copper base.

7. Cocktail shaker
If you're looking for a cocktail shaker that’s fall-approved, this brushed metallic beauty has got all the rustic, autumnal feels.
8. Floral napkins
These gorgeous floral napkins mimic an antique painting. Add them to a colourful table setting for a fashion-forward pop of colour and a fun mix of prints, or team them with a simple white tablecloth.
Willow Floral Napkins, $25/set of 4, indigo.ca.
9. Lazy Susan
Pass the gravy in style this Thanksgiving with a luxe marbled Lazy Susan at the centre of the dinner table.
Marbled lazy susan, $88, anthropologie.com.
10. Teapots
After dinner is served, your guests may be in the mood for a hot cup of tea. This teapot combines a vintage design with a modern matte black finish that feels just right for fall.
Botra teapot, $70, eq3.com.
11. Frosted vase
No holiday tablescape is complete without fresh sprigs of blooms or greenery. Place them in a frosted bottle vase for a more cold-weather feel.
12. Thank you cards
Instead of name cards, up the ante by leaving handwritten cards on guests' plates that list all of the reasons you're grateful for their friendship.
