We usually don’t think much of Thanksgiving centerpieces until we are about a week out and counting the chairs in our dining room. With the menu planning, guest list, disposing of leaves and trying to find that perfect recipe for pumpkin pie it can just slip our mind.
Lucky for you I have put together a list of easy to set up centerpieces that won’t block the view across the table and ignite conversation at your holiday party.
The key to a successful Thanksgiving centerpiece is making sure it encourages conversation not blocks it.People should never have to weave and bob in order to see who’s talking on the other side of the table. Not at a Thanksgiving gathering.
Your Thanksgiving centerpiece should be festive. However, if you match it to the decor of your home using similar colors that is fine too. The white pumpkin is extremely popular right now and still extremely festive.
Let’s get into our list of the 10 easiest and festive Thanksgiving centerpieces.

We did the pumpkin vases for our October wedding 4 years ago. They were stunning! I highly recommend it, I did the carving myself so the florist only had to arrange the flowers, and it really wasn’t that bad to do.
That is awesome. It sounds like it was a beautiful wedding.
These are all lovely ideas! I can hardly believe how fast Thanksgiving is approaching! Thanks for the inspiration and happy Thanksgiving! 🙂
I know this year has just flown right by. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
I am loving every single one of these! Totally using the last one for our dining room table. Thank you!!
They are all very beautiful.
