Celebrate Thanksgiving With Tuscan Style!

Posted By Mary Freeland on November 24, 2009

Tuscan style is about more than great home décor; it’s also about a lifestyle of celebration with friends, family, and food. There’s no better time to enjoy great Tuscan design than when your home is filled with loved-ones and feasting at Thanksgiving!

Festivities: Prepare for your houseguests by making sure your Tuscan décor looks great. By now you probably have your Mediterranean furnishings and atmosphere established, but it’s never too late to put the finishing touches on your space. Add an extra table lamp for additional light or hang an ironwork candleholder on the wall for cozy ambience. Hang a Tuscan landscape on the wall—choose a distinctive metal mesh wall art print from Pear-Sun Designs and your company won’t stop raving about how gorgeous and unique it is. Having people over to the house is always a great motivator to finish your decorating projects, so don’t hold back. Make sure your Tuscan home is looking its best before the guests start knocking at the door.

Food: Spice up your traditional Thanksgiving fare with a Tuscan flair this year. Keep the classic turkey and mashed potatoes, but substitute in a moist focaccia bread instead of cornbread, serve a savory olive appetizer, or add a rich Italian red to your wine list. Putting a dash of Tuscany on the table emphasizes the beautiful Mediterranean detailing that surrounds your Thanksgiving celebration, taking your décor to a whole new level!

Friends and Family: If your Thanksgiving dinner guests are the kind of people who always show up with a hostess gift, why not let them know that your home—and your celebration—is all about the charm and style of Tuscany this year. They’re likely to come bearing gifts of tasty Italian wines, delicious olives, and, if you’re really lucky, maybe a lovely piece of Tuscan earthenware or other décor accessory!
