Thanksgiving is always about the dinner table gatherings with family and loved ones. It is nice to create a nice cozy table spread for your guests coming to dine at your home. Start with some gourds and pumpkins which are a natural, beautiful way to decorate your Thanksgiving table. You can simply carve a large artificial pumpkin and fill it with small colorful gourds, and this would make a simple, pretty centerpiece. Or, take six or so real gourds or small pumpkins, hollow them, add a tea light to each and place them on a narrow rectangular mirror in the center of your table with a pair of candles on either side. Or create a simple and fun cornucopia. This is the easiest and most traditional Thanksgiving centerpiece decoration. From a craft store, purchase a simple cornucopia basket; its curved cone shape is iconic of Thanksgiving- the symbol for a bountiful harvest. You can use real fruits and gourds - or, while you’re at the craft store, purchase silk or sugared plastic fruits and gourds - you’ll be able to use them year after year.
