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
This wreath's harvest scheme makes it a perfect front door decoration to bridge the gap between Halloween and Christmas seasons.
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: Harvest Flag With Religious Inscription
The theme of this flag, unlike the turkey flags above, is the harvest. With its religious inscription ("Give Thanks to the Lord"), this outdoor Thanksgiving decoration is a nice choice for those truly wishing to give thanks on this holiday.
