Don’t you just love the colors of fall? Try these colorful Thanksgiving table decor ideas to add a splash of color to your fall tablescape!
I think turkey and dressing just tastes better when surrounded by a beautiful Thanksgiving tablescape — especially one overflowing with color! With November just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about Thanksgiving!
And speaking of color, if you ever need a little color inspiration for your table, just head to Trader Joe’s! don’t you just love Trader Joes’s flowers? All those beautiful flowers at such great prices!! It’s so hard to settle on just one bunch!
Last week’s trip to Trader Joe’s, on a day when they were fully stocked with beautiful vibrant colors, resulted in this idea for a Thanksgiving tablescape overflowing with color —which seems to be a theme for me this fall!
I created an arrangement using beautiful hot pinks, purples, oranges, golds. And of course, the Trader Joe’s flowers are the star of the show!

I started with a selection of flowers and greenery, including bright pink roses, gold chrysanthemums, white zinnias, purple statice, green hydrangeas, and eucalyptus. Special thanks to the sweet Trader Joe’s clerk who fetched a flower bucket for all my flowers!
I used a small oval bowl and soaked oasis foam for securing the flowers in the arrangements. When creating a fresh floral arrangement like this, you want to use the wet oasis foam, not the dry kind.
I started by adding the fresh eucalyptus around the base and then anchored the arrangement with the large hydrangea bloom.
Next, I grouped bunches of the different yellow and gold mums around the bowl, making sure the arrangement looked balanced on all sides — which is important since this is a table centerpiece. I added the white zinnias and finished with the pink and purple blooms for surprising fall color.
I used this favorite jute runner on the dining room table to serve as a neutral base for all of the color. It not only provides a neutral backdrop to all of the color, but it adds pretty texture to the tablescape as well.
The hot pink and fushsia flowers just pop against the natural jute runner! I added faux pumpkins and gourds in shades of peach and pale orange, small white pumpkins, and red pears scattered along the table.
I love the pinks and purples combined with traditional fall oranges and yellows. It’s fun to think outside the box when it comes to fall color.
The blue and white Blue Willow fruit bowls add even more vibrant color — and you know, I love my blue and white!
The amber stemware and brown chargers remind you that this IS a fall tablescape even with all that hot pink!
I hand-painted these little DIY cachepot planters. I used small galvanized metal pots, and painted them in a blue and white striped pattern with touches of gold trim . Then, I added the small wheat topiaries for pretty fall texture.
The blue pillar candles add height and repeat the blue color theme on the table.
It’s a colorful table just perfect for all the colorful conversations that will happen here between family and friends over the Thanksgiving holiday.
On the kitchen table, this large round basket (a great TJMaxx find this fall) overflows with colorful gourds, pumpkins, and fruit — a mix of real and faux. Mixing real and faux is a great way to extend your decorating dollars. You just have to remember to toss the real ones at the end of the season!!
The blue and white plaid pumpkins and painted plaid leaves are DIY touches that add color and fun to the kitchen table.
