I love the languorous feeling of late summer, as the last warm days slip by and the promise of fall awaits. It's like a precious pause before the bustle of the harvest season – fall, Halloween, Thanksgiving – and every year I try to use the time to plan ahead. It might seem hasty, but I'm already full of Thanksgiving table decor ideas, and I've been somewhat charmed by all the Thanksgiving table decor at Pottery Barn.
There's so much to look forward to when it comes to Thanksgiving hosting, and I love shopping for seasonal decor and leaning into gorgeous fall colors. I spend weeks trying out different Thanksgiving table setting ideas, but I usually end up with a tried-and-tested combination of warm yellow linens, gleaming gold accents, and plenty of pillar candles (plus some tasteful turkey motifs, of course). I was thrilled to see all of this and more in Pottery Barn's Thanksgiving decor collection.
Whether you're ready to embrace traditional designs or you're envisioning a more understated tablescape, Pottery Barn's Thanksgiving table decor is perfect. I'd start with the Botanical Harvest bird dinnerware set for a classic Thanksgiving look, or keep things simple and layer the Heirloom serveware collection with the Woodrow plaid cotton table runner.
Whether you want to mix statement pieces with your existing collection of plain and neutral pieces, or start from scratch and stock up on dinnerware, platters, linens, there are so many options to elevate your existing tableware. (The French glaze pumpkin collection is my top pick.)
It's never too early to shop Thanksgiving decor ideas, and you'll feel so satisfied when you're ready with plenty of time to space. Here are more of my favorite Thanksgiving pieces from Pottery Barn.

I love the elegant botanical design on this runner; I'd pull out some of the green and yellow shades using napkins or placemats.
I've been obsessed with pumpkin stoneware since I spotted the Le Creuset fall collection for 2025 – and these bowls will see me through from early fall gatherings to both Halloween and Thanksgiving.
These napkins are another pumpkin-themed delight; I adore the gingham print and the vibrant orange hue.
Fill this cornucopia with gourds and mini pumpkins and you've got a simple but striking centerpiece. I'd add a few pops of color using ceramic options like MacKenzie-Childs' pumpkin decor.
Subtly on-theme and utterly elegant, these plates feel like an heirloom set. The delicate florals remind me of my favorite country grandmother-inspired tableware.
I can't wait to pick up a few of these pumpkin candle holders to show off around my home – they'll sit perfectly on my mantel as well as my dining table.
If you're looking for a ready-made centerpiece, allow me to introduce you to these show-stopping faux florals. The rich fall colors are simply divine.
The Fantastical Forest range is a standout from Pottery Barn's fall collection for 2025, and this handsome platter caught my eye; it would pair wonderfully with the Bedford Harvest pieces.
There's something so regal about an antler motif, and this candle holder is sure to bring some stately sophistication to your Thanksgiving table. Pair with plaid linens to complete the look.
Looking for more seasonal buys? Pottery Barn's viral terracotta jack-o-lanterns will always be a winner for fall and Halloween displays.
