HOME & GARDEN

On The Hunt: Cheap, Chic and Not-Too-Bulky Thanksgiving Décor

Her criteria were that the items be inexpensive, non-corny (no paper-mâché turkeys), and—given the aforementioned Manhattan (read: space-challenged) apartment—take up as little room as possible.

1. Set of 10 Acorn Placecard Holders (buy it now price, $23.95)

Miniature acorns cast in pewter are such a charming addition to any table.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Maple Leaf Ceramic Plate (buy it now price, $12.99)

Use this vibrant ceramic dish for serving hors de oeuvres.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Set of Two Acorn Candlesticks (buy it now price, $29.24)

These silver-plated candlesticks look all the more refined filled with simple white tapers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Fresh Green Boxwood Wreath (buy it now price, $9.99)

An elegant handmade wreath made from homegrown, pesticide-free boxwood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Autumn Leaves Printed Tablecloth (buy it now price, $35)

There’s something subtly (and endearingly) folksy about this cotton table covering in warm fall hues.

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. Set of 12 Fall Leaf Napkin Rings (buy it now price, $19)

We love these sculptural, delicately rendered copper napkin rings.

 

 

 

 

 

7. Set of Eight Queen's Myott Thanksgiving Salad/Dessert Plates (buy it now price, $45)

These ornate blue and white plates blend beautifully with plain white, everyday china.

 

 

 

 

 

 

8. Set of Six Autumn Leaves Napkins (buy it now price, $6) 

Cocktail-size cloth napkins embroidered with pretty leaves.

 

 

 

 

 

 

9. Set of Four Turkey Salt and Pepper Shakers (buy it now price, $16.79)

Individual shakers are such a sweet—and stylish—touch.

 

 

 

 

10. Thanksgiving Dish Towel (buy it now price, $6)

A cotton towel screened with a turn-of-the-century turkey image makes drying the dishes a tad less tedious.
