Why not simplify your life this year by making some DIY Thanksgiving centerpieces? These easy-to-make decorations will not only save you time but they’ll also look super cute on your table!
Thanksgiving is one of the most wonderful times of the year. Delicious food, family, and friends are all things that make this holiday so special.
But even though Thanksgiving is a time for celebration, it can also be stressful! There are always so many dishes to make and then there is the decorating.
Instead of baking the roast turkey or trying not to burn the garage down with our deep fried turkey, I prefer to work on the Thanksgiving decor, and the centerpiece for the dinner table is my favorite!
I love to try new, fun ideas with items not always associated with Thanksgiving.
I also try to work with natural items to bring the outdoors in, and of course, it is always nice to use free materials.
After watching the DIY Network last weekend (quite possibly my most favorite channel), I decided to look up some inspiration online.
Here are a few easy DIY Thanksgiving Centerpieces to help you create your own masterpiece.
