Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays of the year. It’s a great opportunity to get everyone together and spend time with your dearest family and friends. One of my favorite parts is decorating the table since the holiday is focused around the meal. Creating a beautiful tablescape is a nice way to make everything feel more festive, delight your guests, and have some fun decorating.

The centerpiece is the most important part of any tablescape. It’s the focal point of the whole table. In fact, if you have an eye-catching centerpiece, the rest of your table settings can be very simple and subtle. There are a lot of fun ideas to play with for the fall season because of all the great rustic elements from nature, but you can make it your own by getting a little creative. It can be as sophisticated and modern or rustic and casual as you’d like.

Here are 10 Thanksgiving centerpiece ideas to inspire you this season.
