13. Fall Foliage Garland
Drape fall foliage garlands across your fireplace mantle, staircase, or dining table for an organic and earthy vibe. Consider mixing in twinkle lights for added ambiance.

The cornucopia, or “horn of plenty,” is a classic Thanksgiving centerpiece that overflows with seasonal fruits, vegetables, and nuts.

Pinecones bring a touch of the forest into your home. Arrange them in baskets, paint them in metallic shades, or use them as name card holders for a rustic-chic touch.
8. Wheat Sheaves
Display wheat sheaves as an elegant and earthy focal point on your table or mantel. They symbolize a bountiful harvest.
7. Acorns
Fill glass jars, bowls, or vases with acorns, or incorporate them into a charming garland for a woodland-inspired look.

Beeswax or soy candles in warm, earthy tones add a cozy glow to your Thanksgiving decor. Consider placing them in rustic candle holders or lanterns.
5. Berries and Foliage
Red, orange, and burgundy berries along with faux or real fall foliage can be used to create stunning wreaths, swags, and arrangements.
4. Burlap Accents
Burlap table runners, placemats, or napkin rings add a rustic touch to your table setting.
