November 14 by Cassie 10 Comments

We saw a few ideas floating around on simple Thanksgiving Decorating ideas and thought we would share them!  Most of these can be done with things found around your home too!

Here’s a round up of some simple ideas:

Spray paint real or fake pumpkins. The glitter and shiny spray paints are especially awesome!

the-thankful-tree-sm

The Thankful Tree.  I love this simple idea! This is one the whole family would love. My boys can’t seem to go outside without collecting a fistful of sticks.  Well, it looks like I can put them to use! Then we can make a thankful tree! How sweet!

Idea and picture from Simply Vintage Girl

What a simple and elegant idea – ribbon on a pumpkin! It’s gorgeous! Even combine the spray paint and ribbon idea together for an even more unique decoration!

mini-pumpkins-candlesticks-sm

How brilliant! I have plenty of “empty” long and short stem candlestick holders that would be perfect for this idea of placing mini pumpkins on top of a candle holder.  Dress it up even more with ribbon, bows and even spray painted pumpkins!

    I love the pumpkin glitter spray and ribbon ideas! Those would be super cute together. You can’t go wrong with glitter! And the peppers as flower pots are really pretty too! With the bright colors, that could really go for any spring or summer too!
