THANKSGIVING KITCHEN ESSENTIALS
First, let's talk food—the centerpiece of your Thanksgiving get-together. Every great host has a plan, from filling the house with homemade goodies to preparing yourfavorite premade dishes. However you set up, a properly equipped kitchen will make the whole day go smoothly. Here's a look at the kitchen appliances and accessories you should have on hand, from Thanksgiving bakeware to food storage (because you can't forget Thanksgiving leftover containers!)
Thanksgiving Kitchen Appliances & Gadgets
The right kitchen appliances depend on your Thanksgiving menu. Whatever you're cooking, we've got the kitchen gadgets to match. Cooking low and slow? Our pressure and slow cookers can help, and for side dishes, an air fryer or deep fryer is the perfect choice. For dessert, whip up something sweet with a high-performance mixer and attachments. If you find yourself with too many dishes and not enough burners, simply expandyour cooking capacity with our collection of stovetops and skillets.
Thanksgiving Cookware & Bakeware
You can never have enough high-quality cookware and bakeware! Your Thanksgiving cookware should include enough frying pans, saucepans and otheressentials for all your dishes, especially if you plan to make them at the same time. A Dutch oven or casserole pan are other great options for feeding large groups.
Thanksgiving Leftovers Food Storage
The chances of having leftovers after the big meal are high. That's when proper food storage becomes convenient. Make sure you have enough Thanksgiving leftover containers on hand (and room in the fridge) to store everything. Enjoy leftovers for the next few days after Thanksgiving or send guests home with a food storage container or two filled with their favorite dish.
THANKSGIVING DINING ROOM DÉCOR
The meal prep magic happens in the kitchen, but the dining room is truly the heart of your celebration, where guests will enjoy food, drinks and good times. Choose Thanksgiving dining room décor that fits the holiday theme while still reflecting your style and taste. There are many ways to achieve your ideal theme, from laying out Thanksgiving table settings and linens to adding an eye-catching Thanksgiving centerpiece.

Decorative fall pillows can easily create a festive feel in your living room—and they look fabulous all season long. Invite guests to enjoy their appetizers or relax after the big meal while sitting among soft Thanksgiving throw pillows emblazoned with turkeys, pumpkins and fall patterns.

Outdoor fall décor will turn your yard, patio and porch into a seasonal sensation. Createa festive atmosphere and welcome guests as they arrive with themed lighting, artificial plants and other Thanksgiving yard décor. Choose a few key pieces for an understated look or go big and bold with décor in every spot!
Thanksgiving Yard & Porch Décor
Dress up your outdoor areas and enjoy early sunsets with Thanksgiving lighting and Thanksgiving yard décor. Guests will love being greeted with an elegantly lit entryway or a charming inflatable Thanksgiving turkey. Shop our Thanksgiving lamps and lighting and Thanksgiving decorative accents for all the pieces you need to create your perfect yard and porch setup, and consider adding lighting indoors for an extra touch of holiday magic.
Thanksgiving Artificial Wreaths, Flowers & Plants
Real fall leaves are gorgeous, but they quickly lose their color. That's why we love Thanksgiving wreaths and garlands made from artificial leaves or Thanksgiving artificial flowers. If your theme incorporates nature, our Thanksgiving garlands and wreaths will bring a classic pop of color both indoors and outdoors, and they'll look fabulous on your front door, patio or even as wall hangings. Browse our Thanksgiving artificial flowers and plants for even more décor options.
