10 Thanksgiving Decorating Ideas For a Rustic Farmhouse Theme

Why you need it: Because you don’t need to literally give thanks, but it’s nice to remind your guests that you appreciate them—and also, you cooked the turkey.

Find it here: A farmhouse wooden sign with a distressed finish that screams “I’m rustic but still classy!” Perfect for your dining area or hanging over the fireplace. Bonus tip: If it gets awkward with family, just point to the sign. Problem solved. 😉

Why you need it: Mason jars are like the Swiss Army knife of rustic decor—flowers, candles, snacks, or… more snacks.
Find it here: A set of vintage-inspired mason jars that you can fill with seasonal blooms or little treats for your guests.
Bonus tip: Put candy corn in them. It’s still cute even if it’s a sugar overload. 😜

Why you need it: Because nothing says “rustic farmhouse” like burlap, and it’s perfect for hiding the evidence of any accidental cranberry sauce spills.

Bonus tip: Pair it with a glass of wine—err, we mean… a nice sparkling water—because you’ll need it to deal with Aunt Carol’s stories. 🍷

Why you need it: Because real pumpkins rot, and let’s be honest, you don’t want to deal with that mid-November. Plus, these look cute until the next holiday season!
Find them here: A set of faux pumpkins and gourds that look like they just came from a dreamy fall farm.
Bonus tip: You can use them as conversation starters. “So, uh, how’s the pumpkin?” 😅

Why you need it: They add that perfect touch of rustic charm. Also, they make it look like you’ve been living on a farm for years (even if you’ve only recently bought a farmhouse doormat).
Find them here: Beautiful, vintage-style lanterns that you can fill with fairy lights or candles.
Bonus tip: If your Thanksgiving goes long, these lanterns can double as the “I’m out of here” light. 🚪💨

Why you need it: Because you know what says “country chic” more than cotton stems? It’s like a warm hug for your front door!
Find it here: A fluffy, cotton-stem wreath for your door or dining area. I mean, how simple yet lovely is this?
Bonus tip: It’s also a great conversation starter. “Oh, that? Just my seasonal cotton field. You know, for decor.” 😂

Why you need it: If you love pumpkins but want to be low-maintenance and keep things farmhouse fresh, these ceramic beauties are your best bet.
Find them here: Ceramic pumpkins with a farmhouse glaze. Perfect for creating a pumpkin patch on your dining table.
Bonus tip: These pumpkins won’t get squashed during dinner (unlike your family’s hopes for dessert). 🎃

Why you need it: You’ve got to add that autumnal je ne sais quoi—and faux fall leaves make it look like you’re a leaf-collecting pro.
Find it here: A garland of artificial flowers and fall leaves that adds a splash of color to your mantel or walls.
Bonus tip: If someone complains about the fake leaves, just tell them it’s your “permanent autumn installation.” 🍂

Why you need it: Because, let’s face it, you could totally haul hay in these if you ever got your dream farm (or just use it to stash extra snacks for after dinner).
Find it here: A rustic wooden crate that you can fill with candles, mini pumpkins, or even some apples for a charming centerpiece.
Bonus tip: You can also use it to hide any leftover mashed potatoes when Aunt Karen shows up for second helpings. 🥔

Why you need it: Because who wouldn’t want to wrap up in a plaid blanket while pretending to enjoy turkey (and dreaming about pie)?
