How to make a meaningful centerpiece or decor item for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. For my entire life, my aunts, uncles and assorted cousins (and how my cousins and I all have kids) gather together for a pot luck Thanksgiving. My Aunt Missy makes the turkey, and the rest of us bring things. It’s usually a six hour long event and it feels so good to be able to visit with everyone and not feel rushed.

We have family members (and some stray friends) there for every generations, ages 1 1/2 – 77 years old! This Lighted Thanksgiving Centerpiece project is something everyone can participate in creating!
