10 Fast and Easy Thanksgiving Centerpieces |
Need something fast for the center of your Thanksgiving table?As we gather to give thanks and enjoy time with family and friends, Thanksgiving tables will take center stage. If you haven't decided what to put in the center of your table, these quick and beautiful centerpiece ideas may give you some inspiration. Most of these can be put together in 15 minutes or less using ingredients from your yard and the grocery store. The only trick may be quantity. Instead of a pair of candlesticks, use 3 pair. Instead of one pumpkin, use 5. This will give a rich abundant look with little expense. Choose one and make something beautiful this week!
Candles and Leaves
Arrange candlesticks (or a variety of pillar candles) randomly down the table, with tallest ones in the center. Set fall leaves on the tabletop around the bases of the candlesticks. If you wish, decorate with a few pinecones, miniature turkeys, or even foil-wrapped chocolate turkeys.

Potted Green Plant
Choose one beautiful green plant with trailing branches such as an ivy. Place it in the center of the table (in a basket, cache pot, hollowed out pumpkin, or even a soup tureen). Insert a few fall leaves into the plant and add a few more down the table. Nestle several mini pumpkins either into the plant or near the trailing vines.
