10 DIY Thanksgiving Decorations To Transform Your Home This Fall

While DIY furniture may not be my strong suit, making crafty decorations for the holidays is! And it’s the season for some DIY Thanksgiving decorations! I love running to the craft store to buy special paper or perusing the $1.00 section at Target for crafting supplies.

The hunt is half the fun! There’s nothing like looking around your home during the holidays and seeing a memory along with each decoration you’ve put up to show holiday spirit. Here are some easy DIY Thanksgiving decorations that you can try this year and add to your holiday stash for the coming years.

Here are some Thanksgiving day activities you can enjoy with your friends and family.

10 DIY Thanksgiving Decorations

Garlands

Garlands are one of my favorite ways to decorate. I admittedly have bunting and garlands up in my home year round for one reason or another. These Thanksgiving garlands are perfect if you’re looking for a simple craft that takes up a bit of space on a bare wall or empty window.

Wreaths

I have never been a wreath maker myself but I have always wanted to give it a shot! Maybe this year will be the beginning of something new?! Wreaths are a great way to make a statement to guests and anyone who passes by your home. They are fun, festive and can be changed out seasonally for continued crafting fun!
