Today’s Friday Finds post is dedicated to all things Thanksgiving! From decorations to traditions and recipes, you’ll enjoy plenty of goodness as we remember everything we have for which to be thankful.
In addition to a collection of weekly finds, I have a free printable that you can download and use on Thanksgiving Day. It’s at the end of the post.
Are you familiar with the history of Thanksgiving? Apparently the Plymouth feast is not the first meal that claims to be the first Thanksgiving. Check out this historic timeline to learn more about our thankful tradition and its timeline.

Would you host Thanksgiving dinner in a barn? See the menu and decor for this Virginia family’s Thanksgiving celebration.
Designer Jess Cathell shares her farm thanksgiving celebration from a few years ago. Everything is so beautifully coordinated and just looking at photos of her handiwork will give you warm fuzzies!
The Kitchn (yes, that’s how it’s spelled) shares how to set a table on a budget. I like her idea for using brown craft paper.
It wouldn’t be a Thanksgiving post without a recipe or two. Every year I make Everyday Annie’s yummy green bean casserole from scratch. It’s far better than the one you make with canned beans and mushroom soup, but it also takes more time. It’s totally worth it though!
And who can resisit dessert on Turkey Day? Here’s a list of the best 25 Thanksgiving desserts to consider serving.
As promised, here’s the free printable for your holiday dinner. You can print them and leave them at each place setting or hand them out to everyone. Guests can write what they’re thankful for and share their thoughts around the table.
I loved the History of Thanksgiving, the different table settings and candle light tour. I pray you have a great Thanksgiving with your family.
