Thanksgiving Dining Room Centerpiece

Make a big impact using minimal effort with Eastbrook Homes’ Thanksgiving dining room centerpiece design. By combining foraged West Michigan fall foliage, eye-catching colors, and a delightful palette of textures, we’ve designed a head-turning centerpiece that is sure to be the talk of the table. 

1. Start with a simple lazy susan or round, rotating platter in neutral colors and textures, like faux wood or marble. 
2. Add a fun, patterned, round placemat for a pop of color and texture.
3. Layer down some seasonal fall foliage like small branches, delicate leaves, sprigs of dried berries, or fluffy seed pods. About 7-10 sprigs should do the trick!
4. Add a mid-sized case with a posy of gold, burgundy, and ivory flowers to bring the eye upwards. 
5. Finish off the look with a few mini pumpkins, oranges, and pomegranates to bring together a stunning centerpiece with gorgeous views from all angles!

Thanksgiving Dining Room Tablescape

Impress every guest with Eastbrook Homes’ bountiful Thanksgiving dining room tablescape design! We pulled from West Michigan’s natural beauty to create a cohesive, celebratory dinner look that’s a snap to set up. Try it during your next autumn holiday meal!

1. Start by laying down a neutral, textured table runner to act as the perfect backdrop for your tablescape.
2. Add a patterned placemat in autumn colors of scarlet, amber, and lemon at each table setting.
3. Begin laying down texture and color along the center of the table with sprigs of fall foliage, dried berries, seed pods, and wispy branches. 
4. Add a pop of color with a gorgeous vase and autumnal flower bouquet. 
5. Dance eyes up and around the table by elevating mini pumpkins on creative pumpkin pedestals; try setting your mini pumpkins on unique vases, bronze goblets, or rose gold candle platforms.
6. Add solid-colored plates in muted, neutral tones to each table setting and top with fun, lively-colored cloth napkins with matching napkin rings. 
7. Bring the whole look together with a set of transparent, colorful glasses.
8. Add a scattering of mini pumpkins, oranges, and pomegranates for a warm, welcoming finish.
