I’m sure you all know not to leave a burning candle unattended! Hope these ideas have given you some inspiration for your own Thanksgiving Centerpiece!
I love these, Manuela! Thanks for sharing such a great collection. I pinned this!
Wonderful ideas you have shared! Thank you so much as I was needing a little inspiration for our own thanksgiving table.
Happy Wednesday!
Great ideas, simple enough for me:) I love the ones using leaves, I have plenty of those! Have a blessed day Manuela, BIG HUGS!
These ideas are wonderful. I love a few that are so simple!
I saw one in a magazine recently where the candle was sitting on a base of candy corn, such a cute idea for an autumn party.
These are some great ideas! Thanks!
So many fun ideas for candles. I still haven’t decided what dishes to use, much less what the table setting will be.
So many great ideas! Love all the inspiration 🙂
Pretty and easy to make – Thanks for sharing.
I ran across a bundle of cinnamon sticks recently that I bought years ago to put around some candles and never got around to doing. :/
Pretty ideas – I’ve done the acorn one and the layered beans one, too.
I love all of these, I wish I had room for every one! Our plans have changed so many times, but now it’s just the three of us this year. I still hope to set a pretty table though! I have great plans for holiday leftovers too 🙂 What are you all up to Thanksgiving Day?
Beautiful and adorable Thanksgiving ideas. I liked your idea of using candles into Thanksgiving decoration. I would love to incorporate this idea in my home decoration. You have inspired me to get my home decoration. Thanks for such inspiring ideas.
Ohh..ahhh…love the Indian corn and pine cone ideas!!
Thanks Manuela
When days get dark and fall and winter winds start to blow, out come my candles. These are beautiful ideas to make them really stand out!
