I decorate for fall rather than Halloween, so I leave it all out until Thanksgiving. My favorite is my large dough bowl that I fill with Indian corn and ceramic gourds that look real. I do have a cornocopia with fall flowers in it that I put out with the other decorations, but nothing specifically for Thanksgiving. Christmas this year I'm going to cut way back, just DH and me for most of the season, for the first time we will be going to the kids' homes. So I'm just going to do our front porch, my stairway garland, the Nativity set and the main tree. I'm not going to drag it all out and do every room for just the two of us. Oh, I will change that dough bowl from corn to pine garland, red berries and huge pinecones. I usually leave that in place for a good part of the winter.
