15 Amazon Items Under $50 to Set My Perfect Thanksgiving Table

While we love a beautiful holiday tablescape, it can sometimes feel like an extra thing to add to your to-do list. Whether you’re trying to find the right items, don’t know how to shop, or are worried it’ll look more homemade than upscale, it can be overwhelming.

Personally, I prefer to invest in actual decorative items over seasonally themed dishes or holiday flatware. But if you don’t feel like spending time scrolling endlessly for tablecloths, candle holders, and seasonal decor pieces, then we have great news.

I did the hard work for you, and have rounded up all the things I’m personally looking to use this year on my own Thanksgiving tablescape. Best of all, they’re from Amazon—and they’re all under $50.

ZeeMart Grid Embroidered Hemmed Tablecloth

I love that warmer colors are so on-trend this year, and I think using a bold tablecloth is a great way to set the base of your table’s color palette.

This rusty autumnal hue is particularly perfect with its embroidered grid pattern. Plus, because it’s a heavier weight, it automatically gives a more luxe impression.

Dii Jute Burlap Collection Kitchen Table Runner

If you do go with a bolder tablecloth, it’s a good idea to tone things down with a more neutral runner.

Burlap is always a great option for this time of year, and I’m into the double border and frayed edges on this one to give it a bit more visual interest.

Accenthome Natural Cotton Linen Napkin, Set of 12

While we’re on the subject of table linens, I also like to keep my napkins simple and neutral.

This natural cotton set caught my eye immediately, and I love how the frayed edges match the runner and give them a more organic look.

Alpha Living Home Harvest Fall Leaf Napkin Rings in Antique Gold

Napkin rings aren’t a requirement, but they are a fun way to add some seasonal motifs to your tablescape. These antique gold autumn leaves are especially pretty.

Whaline 80 Pack Thanksgiving Fall Paper Napkins in Autumn Colors

Although I always like to set the table with linen napkins, it’s always good to have some paper options on hand—either for your bar cart, dessert, or the children’s table.

These are a fun pick for their bright, bold, and harvest-themed colors that don’t veer into themed territory.

Anproor Dried Pampas Grass Decor, 100 Stems

I generally pick up fresh flowers for my tablescape, but it’s also good to have a few dried arrangements on hand, too. They’re perfect for this time of year!

These can be pulled apart and popped into small, slim vases, and used to either decorate down your table or popped onto your sideboard if you’re setting your food out buffet-style.

Lvydec 2-Pack Fall Maple Leaf Garland

Another way I like to add some interest to the center of the table is by stringing a garland down the middle and setting my votive holders and candlesticks among the leaves.

This one is a pretty mix of seasonal hues and would look beautiful with the orange and neutral linens.

Exf 4-Pack Fairy Lights, Battery Operated With Timer

Our kitchen lighting isn’t the most ideal situation, so I’m a huge fan of setting the mood with some extra fairy lights.

These battery-operated string lights are a great choice because the wires can be easily coiled to wrap around a table garland, or tucked into mason jars and set down the table.

Khen Hobnail Beaded Highball Drinking Tumbler Glasses, Set of 6

Colored glassware has been in style for years now, and I’m relieved it’s not going anywhere any time soon. While you can find tons of sets on Amazon, I love this one for its perfect assortment of autumnal jewel tones.

Jojuno Glazed Rustic Bud Vase, Set of 4

Larger flower arrangements can block the flow of conversation, so I usually opt for smaller bud vases. With the above drinking glasses bringing in an assortment of shimmering colors, I looked for a ceramic vase option and absolutely love these.

Best of all, they look a lot more expensive than they are and can easily be repurposed on bookshelves and side tables when not on your tablescape.

Mora Ceramic Large Serving Bowls, Set of 2

New serverware is always a great way to upgrade your table without buying all new dishes. These oval platters are especially beautiful for the season, and work perfectly for both your sides and your main.

Jofefe 20Pcs Wood Place Card Holders and 24Pcs Kraft Table Place Cards

Place cards are a fun way to personalize your Thanksgiving table, and this set of wooden holders with kraft-paper cards is adorable.

You can also use the extras for a dessert bar or cheese spread if needed.

Cleentable Wood Service Plates

Another great way to elevate your table is with cute, seasonal trivets for any hot dishes that will go on your table.

These wood plates are great for both holding your serverware and adding some more organic decor to your spread.

Wdhodec Taper Candle Holders, 12 Pieces

Much like colored glasses, I absolutely love the current glass candlestick trend. If you’re not into colored glassware or want to upgrade your usual brass, this set of twelve is a great price for a wide assortment to use on your table and around your home.

Luna By Camilia 12 Inch Taper Candles, Set of 10

If you’re going to use candlesticks, then you need taper candles. I love that these come in a variety of colors, but this moss hue feels especially perfect for a harvest-inspired table.
