Thanksgiving Gifts
Thanksgiving gifts have never attained the popularity of Christmas giving, but in truth, the tradition of Thanksgiving is all about giving - giving thanks to our gracious God who provides us with many blessings day after day after day.
Traditionally, we gather around family and friends to celebrate with a huge feast - typically replete with roast turkey, mashed potatoes, various casseroles, cranberries, and of course, pumpkin pie!
We set aside an entire day - or in some cases, the whole weekend, to celebrate what we have been given, and who we can share that with.
Thanksgiving Gifts Ideas
For your mom, grandma, or other woman in your life who has her own home or apartment, a great gift idea would be some decor - Americana decor, if you will, that signifies this season. Not only is this a useful and beautiful gift idea, but it's one that will remind the one you love, year after year, of your thoughtfulness surrounding this season.
For example, you can look for decor that reflects this season, such as:
- cornucopia, or horn of plenty
- decorative pumpkins (sometimes you can find amusing "pumpkin people")
- Thanksgiving napkins
- bakeware( For example, maybe she needs a newer turkey roaster, oven thermometer, or lovely platter.)
- corn shocks
- Pilgrims
- Indians
- "feast" themes
- any gift reflecting thankfulness and faith
Probably the best Thanksgiving gift you can give is a gift that reflects your gratefulness for that special person in your life! Whether practical or frivolous, your gift can bring an additional facet of uniqueness to the day of that person that you love.
Have a blessed and special Thanksgiving, everyone!
