This post is all about friendsgiving decor ideas.
Friendsgiving Invitation
First, set the tone for your friendsgiving party with a chic, modern invitation. Etsy is my go-to resource for customizable, printable invitations at super affordable prices. You’re just about guaranteed to find the perfect one for every style, theme, and occasion.
Friendsgiving Welcome Mat
Another small but important detail: the entryway. Because Friendsgiving decor starts at the front door. Greet your guests in style with this quirky welcome mat. While I’m not always a fan of “things that say things,” this one slipped through on account of it being a) subtle and b) kind of hilarious.
Macramé Table Runner
Nothing says 2021 like boho and macrame. This table runner comes in two different lengths, is super reasonably priced, and ships free with Amazon prime. I used it in a post on a pallet picnic birthday party – so you can see it in action!
Centerpiece Floral Arrangement
Next, let’s talk centerpieces. Keep your centerpiece floral arrangement simple and on trend with dried eucalyptus. You can even buy this well in advance of your event and use it to decorate your home for the fall season! Place the stems in a neutral, modern vase and you’ll be good to feast!
Modern Candlestick Holders
Another centerpiece must is candles. Because lighting is everything. Place a few of these pretty modern shaped candlestick holders on either side of your floral arrangement. After that, all that’s left to do is light and enjoy!
Cloth Napkins
Bring in a touch of black and white to your tablescape to tie in with the stationery. Use basic plates, fold the napkins into thirds and then half again, put a spring of the centerpiece eucalyptus on each, and your place setting is complete! I used these exact napkins and fold in a fall picnic set up – because sometimes it’s nice to see real life examples.
Pumpkin Place Card Holders
For a subtle nod to traditional harvest decor, use these chic gold pumpkin place card holders as modern Friendsgiving decor ideas. Even better, they come with a set of minimal place cards. I bought these a few years ago for Thanksgiving and have used them every year since!
Printable Friendsgiving Menu
Then, take your place settings OTT with a printable menu. If your event is potluck style, ask your guests ahead of time for what they’re bringing, and then customize the menu accordingly (i.e. Sarah’s sweet potatoes). Everyone will get a head start on the Who Made What conversation!
Signature Friendsgiving Drink Sign
Offering a signature cocktail or two at a party will make stocking your bar much, much simpler for many reasons. Above all, no need to play bar tender all night. Remake larger batches as the evening rolls on, and let your guests help themselves! Display this cute signature drink sign near your beverage station to help your guests know what to do.
Wine Bottle Labels
Another boozy detail to consider. If you’re serving wine at your Friendsgiving gathering, why not customize the label? It’s a small detail that will likely be a conversation starter!
Cocktail Napkins as Utilitarian Friendsgiving Decorations
No matter what drinks you serve, a cocktail napkin is a must. Minimal and understated, these punny harvest napkins are the perfect addition to your Friendsgiving bar.
Game to Keep the Conversation Flowing
Next on the agenda is entertainment. Once the turkey platter has been cleared, it’s time for a party game. Let the laughter ensue!
Leftovers Bags and Boxes
A thoughtful touch is sending your Friendsgiving guests home with a prettily packaged box of leftovers. I love the simplicity of these boxes and bags. Plus, since they just say “leftovers” (and not something specific to the holiday), you can use extras for other occasions!
Hangover Remedy Favor Bags
Lastly, let your guests know you’re extra thankful for their friendship by sending them home with a parting gift. If your Friendsgiving was extra boozy, a hangover gift bag stuffed with your favorite remedies will definitely be appreciated come morning!
