I LOVE mercury glass. Especially with the candles inside. By adding these simple vases with baby’s breath or even a simple berry branch to add some color, makes this subtle yet beautiful centerpiece a fantastic addition to any Thanksgiving centerpiece or holiday celebration!

You can even use them as decoration for your entryway or side tables to keep the holiday feeling throughout the house!

Go small and simple with these short candle holders filled with your favorite nuts or acorns. This low Thanksgiving centerpiece invites easier conversations from across the table. Get all the amazing family chatter and good times that you can without a tall or cumbersome decoration getting in the way! It will also make room for more food to be set on the table, and let’s be honest, the food is the star of the show! LOL

Do you have any extra trays lying around your kitchen? Let’s put them to use! Find some of your favorite fall things and some of your small gourds leftover from Halloween, and arrange them in a way that makes you and your table looking great and happy! Plus when it’s time to put the food on the table you can just take the whole centerpiece off the table. There are some other tips on how to tie the rest of your table in with this beautiful, fall centerpiece.

What else says fall like apples? Whether you want to go simple with a nature-inspired table runner, or a rustic bouquet, fall for autumn (See what I did there?) with this sweet and colorful fruit!

Easy fast and cheap you can’t find an easier Thanksgiving centerpiece than that!  Let your imagination run wild!
