I am hosting a pre-Thanksgiving party for about 50-100 people. They are all Graduate students, Faculty and their families. I am looking for some great decorating ideas, that are creative, simple and inexpensive. What are some ideas? Table decorations are needed as well as general decorations. Thanks in advance.

Go pick some fall plants – some sumac, dry grass, branches with red leaves on them, whatever strikes your fancy.

Plunk them into hollowed little pumpkins or gourds for centrepieces. You can dress them up by tying a ribbon around the plants to hold them together. You can do the same with mini-pumpkins for votive or other candles – cut a hole and plunk the candle inside the pumpkin. I personally think, though, that buying a couple of nice tapers and setting them on cheap candle stands looks classier.

You should try your local dollar store. Mine sells glass vases, decent looking plastic and fabric foliage, and jacquard-style table runners. They also sell tapers for 2-4 for a dollar, and candleholders starting at 40 cents each.

My husband is currently on his 2nd tour in Afghanistan. Today he called me and asked if I could send some thanksgiving decorations for the tent that he works in (he’s an aid station medic). I sent Halloween decorations, and I was planning on sending Christmas but I have no clue what to do about Thanksgiving. I went to Target, couldn’t find anything, same with Wal-mart. I never decorate for thanksgiving so I’m kinda clueless on what would be easy and not too expensive to send. My husband is the only married soldier out of the guys he works with so I can’t get help with the costs from the other wives in the unit. But what type of decorations would work for thanksgiving? It can’t be in the way or too big?

Are you in area of the U.S. where the color of foliage changes in the fall?!
Send some leaves – Oak, Maple, Acorns,etc…..
find a basket shaped like a Cornucopia, fill it with hard candy, tootsie roll,etc…

I am making deviled eggs for a thanksgiving party.
What do you think I can do to them to make it festive for Thanksgiving.
I can do the old standby of decorating the plate but cant think of anything other then decorating the half eggs themselves as turkeys with a head and faux feathers
anyone have any ideas?

you could use orange food coloring for the inside of the eggs.???
