Let Your Children Or Grandchildren Create A Holiday Memento

If you have young children or grandchildren, or maybe even some that are older, a great and inexpensive way to celebrate the season of giving is through their own artwork. Purchase a roll of butcher paper and have the kids draw or write what they’re thankful for, place on the table and cover with a plastic, transparent tablecloth. After your holiday feast, you’ll have a special, one-of-a-kind keepsake full of memories.

Make Placeholders Using Thanksgiving Quotes

The Internet has an amazing amount of thoughtful Thanksgiving quotes – or, if you’re feeling really creative, you can make your own. Whether you’re searching for existing quotes or writing your own masterpieces, make sure each quote or sentiment goes with your guest, making it as personal as possible. Write or print on beautiful placeholder cards, place holiday décor around the table, and you have a table setting that reminds your guests what the season is all about.

Using Nature As Your Centerpiece

Nothing says fall more than using the nature around you to accent a tabletop. Grab your favorite vase and make your own centerpiece using dried branches, colorful leaves and spruces of evergreen. Complement your unique arrangement by placing green apples, pomegranates, pears and other winter fruit, adding subtle pops of color to your table setting.
