Table Decoration Ideas for Thanksgiving and Christmas

Fun table decoration ideas for Thanksgiving and Christmas! The best part is that you can use all of the supplies you buy for the Thanksgiving version of this table for your Christmas table as well. With a few changes, this table goes from fall to holiday so buy once and get two looks that you will love over the holiday season. This post is sponsored by Bindle and Brass, however, all projects and opinions are my own.

Supplies needed for Christmas table decorations

  • Scented brooms small, medium, and large sizes
  • Pine cones various sizes
  • Artificial poinsettias
  • Iced berries and branches
  • Rustic wood slice charger

Instructions

Thanksgiving Table Decorations

  • Start with two large scented brooms. Lay the two brooms with the wide end out at the ends of your table.
  • Then just start piling on pine cones and pumpkins.

Thanksgiving Table Place Setting

  • A rustic wood slice charger sets the scene.
  • Add a simple piece of paper with a name to the top of some pine cones and use those as place cards.
  • Tie a mini broom onto ribbons for a rustic napkin ring addition to the table.
  • Create a fun “thanks” banner with a few of those medium brooms. I strung those onto twine on one end of the table to continue the rustic look.

Christmas Table Decorations

  • We are using the same technique with the large brooms laying on the table and a pile of pine cones added to the center.
  • Then, add a few poinsettias and some iced berries and branches.

Christmas Table Place Setting

  • Use a rustic wood slice as a charger.
  • Add a simple piece of paper with a name to the top of some pine cones for the place cards.
  • I added a santa broom ornament as the napkin rings and party favor.

Santa Broom Ornament Instructions (optional)

  • Start by masking off the bottom of the small broom and spray painting white. Then add on a mini Santa hat, google eyes, and a pom pom nose with hot glue.

Christmas Tree Broom Instructions (optional)

  • Spray paint a medium broom green then use hot glue to add a star and some pom pom trim. That is it! You have a cute ornament or you can string a bunch of these onto a piece of twine for a banner.
