14 Days to an Easy Thanksgiving – Day 7: Place Cards and Decorations

Thanksgiving is a great time of year, no doubt. For those of us who are in charge or are being hosts, it can get a little stressful and overwhelming. This series is 14 days to an easy Thanksgiving and it will walk you through the 14 days before Thanksgiving and what you can do to get ready each day, just a little project or task that will make your Thanksgiving day EASY! Most of the things are great family time ideas and things your kids can help with too!

DAY 7 – PLACE CARDS AND DECORATIONS

Thanksgiving Place Cards can be a great addition to your table decor! I think that if there are only two or twenty it is fun! Especially if it is edible because then there is fun treat to have as well! I like both kinds of place cards (food and non food) so I found some cute ideas for both!

The most important thing is to choose something simple enough to complete in the amount of time you will have to work on it. To feel overwhelmed just making the place is silly. Make it something fun and simple.

Table decorations and decorations around your house will help everyone get into the spirit of Thanksgiving! It is always fun to have cute or traditional decorations around to complete the look of the wonderful meal that you worked so hard to prepare. If you have children, they will LOVE helping make the decorations and will be very proud to display them for everyone!
