Adding beautiful fall décor to your Thanksgiving table is easy and elegant with these simple to make centerpieces.
 
Cornucopia centerpiece – Create your very own cornucopia centerpiece by dressing up a craft horn.  Whitewash the horn with pickling stain and trim the opening.  Fill it with pears, cipollini onions, fall squashes and apples.

Acorn basket centerpiece - Use the acorns from your own yard to create a nutty basket.  Use a dark color woven basket and hot glue acorns all over. For best results, use acorns with and without caps.  When it’s all dry, line the basket with foil or plastic, and place florist’s foam inside.  Add pears to shish kebab sticks and place in the foam.  Finish off by filling the basket with sprigs of berries, crabapples or other fall foliage.

Old-fashion centerpiece – Use a large metal antique scoop filled with fall foliage and fall squashes for an old-fashion feel.  This is simple, elegant, and eye-catching.
