For an effortless take on Thanksgiving décor, take a cue from Emily Henderson Design and prepare your living room for gathering family and friends with low key touches like a vase of bright leaves or berries and a holiday wreath placed nonchalantly on a side wall. Layer in extra pillows, blankets, and throws that will make your home feel extra cozy. Mix neutrals with rich fall colors such as rust, forest green, mustard, burgundy, and plum. Add candles, light the fire, and you've already set the mood.

In the run-up to Thanksgiving, decorate a sideboard with cake stands and plates in varying heights and styles with a variety of pumpkins. You can swap in real desserts and any extra pies brought by guests when the day arrives. And once Thanksgiving is over, you can repurpose the same arrangement of cake stands, platters and vessels to showcase the impending joys of Christmas.
