Friendsgiving Inspiration

I wanted to pull together all of my Friendsgiving inspiration into a visual for you all today!

We’ve hosted Friendsgiving now 5 years + running and it’s honestly one of my favorite times to host our friends + family to our home! The holiday season is upon us and everything just seems a bit more magical.

Friendsgiving always kicks off this season for me! We usually have some of our lit Christmas garland hung + this year, I even have a couple of smaller trees out (although not decorated yet), too!

Here’s what I’m LOVING and am using to guide my Friendsgiving decor this year! Let’s get to it!

Balloon Garland – I’ve ALWAYS been SO intimidated by a balloon garland! BUT I’ve actually recently heard multiple times they are not bad at all when they come pre-packaged like this one! And WOW, what a pop of fun for any event!

Friendsgiving Balloon Banner – Bc, well, this is adorable. And much-needed for Friendsgiving!

String Light Curtain – Hang this anywhere to be festive! You could hang it behind the Friendsgiving banner… or above your couch… or on a blank wall… anywhere really!

White Birch Giving Tree – OMG. This 2 ft. lit birch tree makes me SO happy! It’s the perfect size for guests to write what they are thankful for on a leaf and hang it on the tree! What a fun tradition!

4 Ft. Kids Folding Table – A lot of us have kids that come to our homes these days, right? And from my experience, they typically take all of the adults’ seats if you don’t have a designated spot for them 🙂 This table is an investment, but if you host a lot at your home, including birthday parties, it’s totally worth it!

Gingham Tablecloth – I love a good gingham tablecloth, especially for Friendsgiving!

Bamboo Folding Chairs – Again, an investment, but sheesh, these are the PRETTIEST folding chairs I’ve ever seen 🙂

Gold Plastic Plates/Cups – Fancy, schmancy! An elegant look that goes in the trash after you’re done! Sign us up!

Thanksgiving Cups – A fun + useful party favor!

Drink Koozies – I love the color and designs of these!

Flameless Votive Candles – The safe look of candles without the worry! I have these and love them!

Mercury Glass Candle Holders – Mercury glass is just gorgeous and gives a little sparkle to your otherwise ordinary candles.

Metallic Photo Backdrop – Photobooths are STILL fun! I had the littles ones in mind when I thought of this idea!

Leaf Garland – Hang it over your photo drop to add some flair, attach it to the front of a table, hang it over your pictures!

Photo Booth Props – The littles and adults alike will use these 🙂

Strobe Light – Bc… when it gets dark outside, no party is complete without a little dancing… and a strobe light is just an added bonus for the littles!

Happy Friendsgiving + Thanksgiving!

1.) All you need is $25 to start or add to your Ohio's 529 plan.
2.) Your Ohio's 529 plan be used NATIONWIDE - not just for Ohio schools.
3.) Your Ohio's 529 doesn't just cover tuition - you can use it on any qualified expense, like room & board, books, computers, internet services, mandatory fees and MUCH more.
4.) 529 plans aren't just for 4-year colleges. Ohio's 529 can be used at ANY type of school - whether that's a 4-year college, trade and tech schools, certificate programs, apprenticeships and more.
5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
