Decorating for Thanksgiving

Nowadays, Thanksgiving is celebrated around the world, and not just by US citizens living abroad. People of all nationalities go to parties and restaurants to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving feast. Autumnal decorations are a big part of any Thanksgiving celebration, with all kinds of ideas for enjoying this beautiful time of year.

Of course, no true Thanksgiving feast is complete without turkey, cranberry sauce, cornbread and yams on the table. Thanksgiving decorations in earth tones are the perfect way to complement these items, both on the table and throughout the home. For inspiration, look no further than nature. There is no more enjoyable family activity than going out and collecting chestnuts, pine cones, twigs, red berries, acorns and colorful fall leaves to decorate the table. Special decorations shaped like turkeys or hedgehogs are also great additions. But the centerpiece of any table decoration has to be a Thanksgiving flower arrangement.

Thanksgiving bouquets in autumnal colors

The best flowers for a Thanksgiving floral centerpiece are those that reflect the colors of fall and complement the foods on the table, like the brown of the turkey, the yellow of the cornbread, red cranberry and orange pumpkins. That is why yellow and orange roses, Chinese lantern plants, rosehips, lilies and hydrangeas are especially popular.

But the beauty of fall has so many more colors to offer. Between August and October, the possible colors and combinations are truly endless.

Autumn festivals at Thanksgiving time in Switzerland

Thanksgiving is just one of many festivals that cultures around the world celebrate at this time of year. In German-speaking countries like Switzerland, many families and communities celebrate Erntedank (harvest festival).
