Upgrade your dining room for Thanksgiving now

Upgrade your dining room for Thanksgiving now

It's never too early to start planning for your holiday festivities. With the school year in full swing and football season about to get interesting, there's a good chance your schedule is already looking full. Ensure you have plenty of time to make Thanksgiving dinner perfect by upgrading your dining room today.

Leave room for turkey

Thanksgiving Day is all about spending time with the people you love. It's also about sharing a delicious roasted turkey with all the fixings. This year, make room for the bird by adding a server station to your dining room. With everyone sitting elbow to elbow at the table, things can get a little crowded. Once everyone's gotten their share of gravy and cranberry sauce, set these items aside on the server station where they'll still be within reach when it's time for seconds.

To make more room, consider upgrading your dining room table itself. The Brendon rectangular dining table by Flexsteel is made from solid mahogany with hazelnut accents and features cherry and birch veneers to complete its durable construction.

For the kids' table, consider a smaller, round piece such as the Plentywood by Ashley Furniture. It's the perfect size for your younger guests, and you'll be able to use it all year round for family meals.

Keep everyone comfortable

Often, the fondest memories of Thanksgiving happen after the meal is over and the plates have been cleared from the table. While the kids play, the adults get a chance to sit around the dining room, sipping coffee and nibbling at thick slices of pumpkin pie.

Help everyone relax by upgrading your dining room chairs to a design that's elegant, sleek and, above all, comfortable. Hammis chairs offer a high back and durable vinyl upholstery for a cozy feeling that will last for years. 

Display your favorite china

With the dishes washed and sparkling once again, you'll need somewhere to store them. But don't hide them away in a dusty cupboard until your next holiday meal. Consider adding a decorative china cabinet to your room, such as the two-piece Larchmont. This Old World-inspired piece brings classic beauty to any dining area.
