Prep Like a Pro
Before the turkey hits the oven, be sure to equip your kitchen with the proper cookware and bakeware to ensure your dinner is a meal to remember. A Dutch oven not only cooks food to perfection, but also looks stunning on your stovetop, while a pie dish in an autumnal hue will look beautiful on your tabletop. And don’t forget the servingware! From chic cocktail glasses to earthy stoneware, these pieces will add some elevated charm to your Thanksgiving table.
Design Your Tablescape
Set the stage for your Thanksgiving feast with a stunning tablescape sure to impress. A rich-coloured tabletop or festive tablerunner makes a beautiful backdrop for your table décor, while cloth napkins housed in napkin rings add an extra special touch for a momentous occasion. Complete the tablescape with a floral arrangement or some pampas grass in a ceramic vase as the perfect finishing touch.
Embrace Cozy Décor
Create a warm and inviting atmosphere with your guests with fall home décor accents. From plush throw blankets to lush wreaths and, of course, a richly scented candle, these décor picks will bring the ultimate cozy vibes to your home.
Develop Your Menu
Need some dishes to complement your turkey dinner? Make the meal prep a little easier by ordering takeout or delivery from Southcentre’s vast variety of food offerings. Whether it’s the spinach and artichoke dip from Milestones, parmesan fries from CRAFT or Cococo Chocolatiers’ truffles for dessert, the options are endless for a delectable Thanksgiving feast.
