Martha Stewart's Thanksgiving recipes, crafts, and decorating ideas for a gorgeous Thanksgiving celebration
Why not go directly to America’s main holiday source for all your Thanksgiving decorating, cooking, and craft ideas? Martha Stewart’s website thankfully offers many excellent ideas for preparing a perfect harvest celebration at your home.
Martha Stewart conveniently organizes her Thanksgiving creations in three categories: recipes, crafts, and decorations. Let’s take a look at some of the best ideas she offers in those departments on her easy-to-navigate website.
Tired of the same old-same old Thanksgiving meal? Try something new this year. This section offers four entirely different menus: Fried Turkey Dinner, Classic Thanksgiving, Colonial Thanksgiving, and of course, Martha’s own Thanksgiving Dinner menu. If you just want to update one or two of the items on the traditional Thanksgiving menu you already have, check out some of the individual, unique special recipes like Celery-Herb Stuffing, Garlic mashed potatoes, Cranberry Marmalade, Heirloom Squash Tartlets, and many more delicious, creative Thanksgiving recipes sure to delight your guests. Yum!
At almost every Thanksgiving gathering, there are children on hand. To keep the little ones busy (and out of your way in the kitchen!), it’s a wonderful idea to offer one or two easy, fun, creative Thanksgiving crafts as part of your celebration. Martha Stewart, not surprisingly, has collected some of the best ideas, including a Mayflower centerpiece, Pinecone Turkey placecards, and adorable Paper Squirrel favors for the children to help prepare. Of course all of the Thanksgiving craft ideas on the Martha Stewart website offer detailed instructions and templates which make it easy to create them.
Decorating for Thanksgiving
Popular for the Thanksgiving table right now are “Midas Touch” decorations including gold spray painted turkeys and gold-accented Horn of Plenty décor. Whether it’s copper leaf bobeches or pumpkin container flower arrangements you’d like to make, Martha Stewart’s website is one-stop shopping for all of your Thanksgiving décor. Easy, creative Jewel Tone Swags, harvest centerpieces like the one pictured on this page, and gorgeous leaf motif decorations are just some of the many Thanksgiving ideas available.
Once again, Martha Stewart has the Thanksgiving holiday covered… perfectly.
