Trying to come up with ideas for outdoor Thanksgiving decorations? Take comfort in the fact that there's a continuity in themes between the 2 big fall holidays: Halloween and Thanksgiving. Yes, after Halloween, it's time to retire spooky decor. But the fundamental landscape design theme for both holidays is the harvest. All your corn stalks, squash, indian corn, pumpkins, wreaths, scarecrows and gourds serve just as well as outdoor Thanksgiving decorations. Simply add turkeys and Pilgrims!
1. Outdoor Thanksgiving Decorations: Autumn Leaves Wreath
"All that glitters is not gold," they say. And it's true: the gold in this fall wreath is tinsel. But then, you'd suffer from sticker shock if it were real gold, wouldn't you? A gold, red and brown color scheme makes this wreath a perfect front door decoration to bridge the gap between Halloween and Christmas season. 20 inches in diameter.
2. Outdoor Thanksgiving Decorations: Turkey Flags
There's a flag (banner) for just about every occasion now. Considering the paucity of outdoor Thanksgiving decorations available, one would expect to see many Thanksgiving flags -- and I do see many of them in my region (New England). Thanksgiving inflatables are also available, but flags are considered more tasteful than inflatables.3. Outdoor Thanksgiving Decorations: Pumpkin Birdfeeder
The nice thing about using pumpkin themes for Thanksgiving decorations is that they can do double-duty, functioning just as well for that other great fall holiday, Halloween. This pumpkin birdfeeder is made from powderstone/polyresin and allows you to feed the birds in style.
