From festive vines and gourds to a cute little turkey that’s ready for a gobble-fest, we have the perfect DIY Thanksgiving decoration for you!

Some of these items can be made from the ground up while others can be bought from online shops. It’s up to you to decide which Thanksgiving door sign and wall art ideas are the right fit for your and your family.

Best Thanksgiving Door Signs and Wall Art to Try in 2021

Here are the best Thanksgiving door signs and wall art ideas that you should try out this year:

1. Gobble Till You Wobble – Thanksgiving Signs

Gobble till you wobble thanksgiving signs

This cute and funny Thanksgiving sign would look great by your front door or in the kitchen. It’s a wooden wall plaque that shows a colorful turkey and says Gobble Till You Wobble. Besides the fact that it’s hilarious, it’s easy to clean, and there’s no glass to break.

We found this piece on Jack the Unicorn, which is made out of high-quality plywood and has bright and vivid colors. The sign is round and has a beige cotton rope so that you can easily hang it on your front door.

In addition to hanging it on your front door, you can use the Gobble Till You Wobble sign to decorate your room, garage, kitchen, garden, or other parts of your home. It goes well with modern farmhouses and country-themed decorations.

2. Thankful Turkey – Happy Thanksgiving Sign

Our second pick for Happy Thanksgiving signs is this cute wooden decoration that spells out Thankful and shows the silhouette of a black turkey on a wooden background. You can hang it on your front door using a satin ribbon and twine.

You can buy the thankful turkey from Sand Shooters and personalize the sign by choosing the colors of the base wood, turkey, and ribbon.

The sign is lightweight, so you can easily hang it up anywhere you want. You can also attach it to any flat surface using double-sided tape or adhesive putty for more stability.

3. Hello Wreath – Thanksgiving Door Decor

Hello wreath thanksgiving door decor

If you want something adorable to hang on your front door for Thanksgiving, this Hello wreath is a great choice. It’s a wooden wreath covered in white and orange hydrangea and various green leaves.

It looks like a traditional Thanksgiving garland with colorful autumn leaves, white and orange berries, and a burlap bow. The ensemble and colors are perfectly suited for fall.

The Hello wreath comes in an 18-inch size, so it works well for most people. If you have very tall doors or want to use more than one garland for your door, consider getting two of them instead of just one large one. You can purchase this Thanksgiving door decor from Venue.

4. Hello Pumpkin – Thanksgiving Door Decor

Hello pumpkin thanksgiving door decor

If you love pumpkins and Thanksgiving, this DIY decoration is a must-have for your home. It’s mostly white and says Hello Pumpkin.

You can use this cute door or wall decoration as a November wreath or Thanksgiving garland to decorate your home. It looks especially adorable when combined with other fall decor pieces like candles and leaves for Autumn.

The sign is made out of a round blank wood with the words Hello Pumpkin written on it in orange. The round wreath is covered in wooden beads. Meanwhile, the berries and the small white pumpkin are artificial.

We discovered a nifty tutorial at The Happy Scraps, which guides you every step of the way on how to build this Hello Pumpkin from the ground up.

As far as supplies are concerned, you need a blank wood plank circle, a cutting machine, stencil vinyl, transfer tape, a paintbrush, paint, a hot glue gun, bead garland, and the Hello Pumpkin SVG that you can quickly download from the website at no cost.

5. Always Stay Humble and Kind – Thanksgiving Sayings For Signs

Always stay humble and kind thanksgiving sayings for signs

In case you’re looking for a different style of Thanksgiving sayings for signs and want something inspirational, we found a great YouTube video tutorial by DD’s Art Workshop on how to make an Always stay humble and kind sign.

The video guide has clear instructions so that you can easily follow them to start building your own sign. Depending on how you want it to look, you can either paint the wording a different color or print it with a white background.

This Thanksgiving decoration also makes a wonderful gift for your family and friends since it’s so inspiring and stylish-looking. You can buy a wooden board from your local store or pick it up from a home improvement center.

When it comes to materials, you will need the following: a pizza pan, a pencil, wax paper, a permanent marker, flowers, tape, a hot glue gun, twine, a mod podge, a plastic placemat, a ribbon, and a sponge brush. The pizza pan may sound unusual, but the entire project is quite inventive!

6. Easy DIY Wall Hanging For Fall Wall Decor – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Easy diy wall hanging for fall wall decor thanksgiving wall decor

This Thanksgiving wall decor idea is an excellent choice for your home decor. It’s perfect for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and the fall season as well since you can use it to decorate any wall of your home, whether it’s the dining area, bedroom kitchen, or something else.

The wall hanging looks fun with its faux fall leaves attached to a small branch after gluing them to a clear fish line. You can use twine to hang the branch to a wall, so it’s not necessary to drill any holes and make any permanent changes to your home.

If you don’t want something as much work as this homemade decoration, consider buying an already finished similar product instead of making it from scratch. You can use a ready-made one as a DIY prop in a family or friend’s house.

The Savvy Sparrow shows a straightforward tutorial with pictures on how to breathe life into this project, so be sure to check it out!

6. Maple Leaves – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Maple leaves thanksgiving wall decor

Here is another way to use maple leaves as your Thanksgiving wall decor – by directly sticking them to your wall. This time, however, you won’t need a wooden branch or extra supplies besides the method of stickiness.

We don’t recommend using a hot glue gun to attach the leaves to your wall directly since the paint will likely come off after removing the leaves. Instead, you can use double-sided removable glue dots like in this cool tutorial we found on Curbly.

Then, all that’s left is putting your creativity to the rest by figuring out how you want to arrange the leaves. With a bit of patience and imagination, you can even spell out Thanksgiving signs like Happy Thanksgiving on your wall.

The sign doesn’t require much work since it’s mostly made out of faux leaves that you can buy in any store or craft store. You can also use fresh ones if they’re still available at this time of the year, but make sure to keep them away from water until you find a way to attach them.

Plus, you can try using other types of leaves like or elm or switching up the color palette for more variety.

7. Gratitude Chain – Fall Door Signs

Gratitude chain fall door signs

If you’re in the mood for a more spiritual and thoughtful Thanksgiving decoration, we found a cool art project that will help you express your gratitude to family and friends – a gratitude chain.

First, start with cutting out strips of colorful paper – it’s best if they’re all roughly the same size. Then, print or handwrite gratitude words like happy, thankful, grateful, joy on each strip. You can make this part as much or as little work as possible since there are plenty of options when it comes to gratitude wording – even complete sentences!

After printing or handwriting the text on colorful paper strips (or using regular white ones), cut them out individually and write one word per strip (you got 20 strips in total). Cut another set of neutral-colored pieces of paper into 20 smaller squares. Write the name of each guest on a square and put all the squares in an envelope.

After you’ve completed this process, place one strip for every guest in the envelope. The trick is to make sure that someone else doesn’t know whose name is on each strip – it should be a surprise!

Lastly, attach each gratitude word to your Thanksgiving door signs with tape or string. As guests arrive at your home during Thanksgiving dinner, have them choose a strip out of the envelope anonymously. At the end of the day after everyone has left, read your gratitude chain aloud to see what wonderful things you have to be thankful for.

Check out this straightforward tutorial from Kiwico to learn more about making a gratitude chain!

We absolutely love this Thanksgiving fall door sign idea because it embodies everything about being grateful not only during but also outside of the holiday season. You can continue your gratitude chain even after the holiday ends – don’t let it go to waste!

8. Turkey Wreath – Thanksgiving Signs

You might be wondering how to make Thanksgiving signs that really stand out. Well, we found the perfect solution – a fun turkey wreath that will attract everyone’s attention!

Made by Jullie’s Wreath Boutique, this YouTube video tutorial explains how to effortlessly make a good-looking turkey wreath out of natural poly burlap.

In addition, you will need regular poly burlap, a wreath form, a ribbon, chenille stems for the turkey feet, foam circles, a brown felt and burlap, a red rick rack, zip ties, a yellow burlap or felt, and googly eyes.

9. DIY Wood Branch Pumpkin Wall Art – Thanksgiving Wood Signs

Diy wood branch pumpkin wall art thanksgiving wood signs

If you are seeking ideas for Thanksgiving wood signs, we found this fabulous wood branch pumpkin wall art that doesn’t cost much and will look good throughout the fall season.

The concept behind it is arranging a bunch of sticks in the shape of a pumpkin and then gluing them to a large board before hanging the board on your wall or front door. The project shouldn’t stop here since you can make a floral arrangement or write a welcoming sign and attach it to the pumpkin.

Take a look at this excellent tutorial we found on BHG to learn more! This project requires a wood pallet, tree branches, twine, acrylic craft paint, a foam paintbrush, floral clippers, a pencil, and a hot glue gun.

The best thing about working with branches is that they give you total freedom when it comes to making designs – all you have to do is find one that works for you! Plus, no two wooden pumpkin wall art projects will look exactly the same.

10. DIY Fall Home Decor with Pumpkin Spice Scented Broom – Thanksgiving Door Decor

Diy fall home decor with pumpkin spice scented broom thanksgiving door decor

Here’s another great idea for Thanksgiving door decor that will pleasantly surprise your guests since it doubles as an air freshener! It’s super simple and cheap, so don’t be afraid of giving it a try.

This wonderful project we discovered on The Maker’s Map features a chalkboard sign, a broom scented with pumpkin spice, wired jute cord, sunflowers with wire, tumbling tower blocks, raffia, half wood beads, a razor cutter, a hot glue gun, a screwdriver, as well as black, white, and burnt umber acrylic paints.

You should be able to track down all these items at your local crafting store. However, if you can’t find a scented broom, then you can get a regular one and use essential oil. The results will obviously be different, but at least you can work with what you have!

11. Whitewashed Pumpkin Ruler Art – Happy Thanksgiving Sign

Whitewashed pumpkin ruler art happy thanksgiving sign

We suggest using a funky pumpkin ruler art to brighten up your space for Thanksgiving. It works especially well if you happen to be a math teacher!

The whitewashed pumpkin ruler art is a straightforward project that won’t take up much of your time. And, if you don’t want to hang it on your front door, it’s ideal if you have a huge blank space on your wall.

In order to make this lovely project as shown in the picture, check out the tutorial created by The Cards We Drew.

When it comes to materials for this Happy Thanksgiving sign, you will need 12-15 wooden rulers, painter’s tape or washi tape for striping, orange acrylic paint in various shades, chalk paint, white paint, paintbrushes, a 12×12 wood board, a hot glue gun, box cutters to cut the rulers, and a ribbon to make a bow and hang the sign.

12. Fall Wreath with Colorful Foliage – Thanksgiving Door Decor

Fall wreath with colorful foliage thanksgiving door decor

Here’s another fantastic idea for Thanksgiving door decor – a colorful foliage wreath. This project is super easy to pull off, and it still looks fabulous! It perfectly embodies the spirit of autumn, which you can showcase on your front door to greet your family and friends on Thanksgiving Day.

Make sure to add the following items to your shopping list: branches of fall leaves, hand pruners, florist wire, a wire wreath frame, wire snips, food coloring (if you want different colors), an orange ribbon, warm water, and liquid glycerin.

It sounds a bit complicated, but the process of making this gorgeous decoration takes just a few minutes since you don’t have to be careful when arranging the foliage. And the results are spectacular! Just ask Southern Living!

13. Nut Wreath – Thanksgiving Signs

Nut wreath thanksgiving signs

Nuts have always been a symbol of hospitality, friendship, and respect. So you can use them to welcome your family and friends on Thanksgiving Day.

However, instead of filling a bowl of nuts, you can take it one step further and put together a nut wreath. It’s easy enough to make this Thanksgiving sign!

The simple design of the nut wreath adds an elegant touch to any home, and you can even use it throughout winter since nuts symbolize the warmth of the season.

Check out this superb tutorial made by New England to learn more! You will need assorted nuts (in shell), a 16-inch wreath form made from either wood or grapevine, a hot glue gun with extra glue, a ribbon, and a wreath hanger or a picture hook.

14. Leaf Fall Art – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Leaf fall art thanksgiving wall decor

Another idea for your Thanksgiving wall decor is to create leaf fall art. If you have kids, this project is a fantastic way of making them understand where leaves come from and why they all change color in the autumn.

The process of creating these cut-out leaves is simple enough, but it surely takes some time since cutting out every leaf will be tedious work. We suggest printing out a leaf template, gluing it to one side of the cardboard, and then drawing the leaves with a pencil. In addition, you need scissors, a mod podge to seal them, and autumn-themed cardstock paper.

Or, you can check out this tutorial we found on Just a Girl Blog to see how to glue multiple leaves in the shape of a giant leaf that’s attached to a large wooden board.

We recommend using this Thanksgiving wall decor in the kitchen or even in the living room if you have a fireplace. It’s a great way to add warmth and cheerfulness to your home!

15. Fall Wreath with Pumpkins and Acorns – Thanksgiving Signs

Fall wreath with pumpkins and acorns thanksgiving signs png

This adorable fall wreath with pumpkins and acorns is a great addition to your fall decor as a Thanksgiving sign. It’s simple enough to put together, and it can be adapted to fit any home style.

We found a wonderful video tutorial at Southen Living that you should definitely check out!

When it comes to materials, you will need the following: a decorative sheet moss, a hot glue gun with extra glue, a grapevine wreath form (14 inches or bigger), florist snips, acorns with caps, pumpkin-on-a-stick eggplants, alder tree cones, and a chocolate brown satin ribbon that’s 3 inches wide.

If you plan on hanging this Thanksgiving sign on your front door, outside, be sure to protect it from rain.

16. DIY Gold Leaf Pine Cone Garland – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Diy gold leaf pine cone garland thanksgiving wall decor

Gold leaf garlands are a wonderful way to add that special touch of elegance and luxury to your home. In fact, you can create this Thanksgiving wall decor for just about every room in the house!

The process of creating these gold leaf garlands is simple enough. But it surely takes some time since gluing each pine cone with gold foil will be tedious work. We suggest printing out gold leaf templates, gluing them on the cones, and then sealing them with mod podge.

You also need a hot glue gun (with extra glue), thirty-six 2-inch pinecones (that are fresh or artificial), twenty-four 6-inch pieces of wire, 24 4-inch pieces of wire, metal shears (or scissors).

Alternatively, take a look at this straightforward tutorial we found on The Sweetest Occasion!

17. Framed Leaf Art – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Framed leaf art is an excellent way to bring autumn color and cheerfulness into your home. You can find inexpensive wooden boards in craft stores or even at the dollar store, cut them to size, and then paint them with your favorite fall colors.

We found this super simple project on My Happy Simple Living, and we strongly recommend it for those of you who want fall decorations that are easy to create without spending too much time and money!

You will need frames, white chalk paint to paint the frames, leaves, a piece of paper, and an iron. After iron-pressing the leaves, it’s time to make a beautiful arrangement in the frame and then seal it together by reattaching the glass pane.

And, if you want to experiment with different colors for the leaves, you can spray-paint them in gold or any other color before making the leaf arrangement for this Thanksgiving wall decor.

18. DIY Fall Pumpkin Rustic Home Decor – Happy Thanksgiving Sign

You will need an orange plaid napkin, raffia, a fall napkin that says Thankful, Grateful or Blessed, a metal pumpkin stake, jute twine, burlap, wired jute cord, tumbling tower blocks, cardboard, wood beads, a hot glue gun, a mod podge, as well as acrylic paints (white and burnt umber).

19. DIY Framed Wood Pumpkins – Thanksgiving Door Decor

Diy framed wood pumpkins thanksgiving door decor

If you are looking for Thanksgiving door decor ideas that take less effort but bring plenty of stylish beauty, then DIY framed wood pumpkins are exactly what you need!

You will probably be surprised to learn how easy it is to make these framed pumpkins. There’s no complicated carving involved. We suggest thoroughly reviewing this nifty tutorial created by Pretty Handy Girl before getting started.

For materials, you will need pumpkin clip art that you can download from the Internet, tape measure, a pencil, scissors, sandpaper, a scroll saw, two pine boards, a paintbrush, orange acrylic or latex paints, wood stain, off-white acrylic paint, a piece of cloth for staining, wood glue, finish nails, and a power finish nailer or a hammer.

Although the guide shows you how to make art that you can place anywhere in your home, like a kitchen, you can effortlessly repurpose it into Thanksgiving door decor. To do this, you can write a welcoming message, add a piece of jute twine, and nail it to your front door. Just make sure to keep it safe from humidity.

20. Basket Gallery Wall Fall Decor – Thanksgiving Wall Decor

Basket gallery wall fall decor thanksgiving wall decor

If you love the idea of gallery wall decor for autumn, then this project might really catch your attention. You can make a gallery wall using baskets of various shapes and sizes to put together spectacular Thanksgiving wall decor.

You will need white pillar candles, small pumpkins, acorns, pinecones, berries, fabric leaves in different colors and textures to add some visual interest to your autumnal decor, and a hot glue gun or twine for attaching the garlands to the bottles/baskets.

As an alternate option, you can use wire clothes hangers to fix all of your items together. It’s essential to be careful while handling these sharp objects. But they will definitely help you create a stunning arrangement without spending too much time on DIY!

We also recommend taking a look at this intuitive tutorial made by Roost and Restore to learn how to arrange a basket wall.

21. Hanging Basket – Thanksgiving Signs

Hanging basket thanksgiving signs

Here’s another whimsical idea that deals with baskets. This time, however, you can hang a basket on your front door as a Thanksgiving sign, which you can fill with a fall flower arrangement and encase in a wooden frame. It looks natural and warm.

To make this wonderful piece of wall decor, you should have some baskets from your old collection, yarn or twine, a hot glue gun, a paintbrush or sponge brush, acrylic paint in four colors (turkey red is preferable), scissors, and an electric drill with a screwdriver bit to attach the hooks that come with the frame.

You could also check out this charming tutorial made by Organized Clutter to learn more about this project.

The great thing about these baskets is that they are really adjustable and suitable for all spaces. So, if needed, you could make some signs for Thanksgiving dinner or decorate your fireplace mantel with them.

22. Fall Leaf Wreath – Happy Thanksgiving Sign

Happy fall wreath

Looking for autumnal cooler decor that is not too difficult to DIY? We have just the right solution for you! Check out this stylish fall leaf wreath idea to warm up your party space in time for Thanksgiving dinner.

To make this Happy Thanksgiving sign, you will need a foam wreath form, a hot glue gun, artificial leaves of different colors and sizes, an old wire hanger, scissors or wire cutters, leaves with glittery or metallic finish (to enhance their texture), and a sawtooth hanger.

To start making this Thanksgiving autumn wreath, you should gently remove the leaves from the wire hangers to prevent them from getting damaged or bent out of shape. Then, attach your stems with hot glue onto the wire ring.

Make sure that all leaves are evenly distributed around it for balance and visual appeal. Lastly, fix your decorative hanging accessory (sawtooth hanger) at the top.

You could also make some smaller-sized arrangements using one large leaf or two or more small ones to put in clear vases for additional fall decor accents if needed!

23. Pilgrim Man Thanksgiving Door Decor

Pilgrim man thanksgiving door decor

Here’s one more idea for easy fall decor that is really simple to make with items you already own in your stash! It’s a pilgrim man sign that will add some rustic charm to your interior space in just two or three hours.

You can use this piece of wall art for Thanksgiving party decorations, but it would also be perfect if you’d like to welcome guests in classic Pilgrim style any time during the year (just change its color scheme).

It would be best if you had some old wooden embroidery hoops, acrylic paints (turkey red and black), a wood plaque (or a piece of plywood), white and black acrylic paint, sandpaper, and a pencil.

For this Thanksgiving door decor project, you should start by preparing your wooden embroidery hoops: sand them lightly and clean them using a wet cloth. Then, use the acrylic paints to cover their surface with turkey red paint and let it dry overnight.

The next day, you can continue by painting all sides of your pallet or plywood plaque black then marking out the shape of clothes on its front side. You could also trace around your wooden hoop if needed! When this part is done, use sandpaper to smooth the cut edges for additional rustic charm.

You can finally attach your clothes to one side of your pallet or plywood. You could nail them on or simply glue them using a hot glue gun because the wood is not very thick and strong, which makes it a perfect home for small nails.

Lastly, attach a sawtooth hanger at the back of the wood plaque to make your new sign ready!

Or, if you don’t feel like embarking on this complicated journey, you can buy a pilgrim wall art from Etsy like the one shown in the picture.

24. Reversible Winter and Fall Door Sign

This cute idea is actually really easy to make if you have the following items in your stash: multi-surface satin acrylic paint in various colors, paintbrushes, an unfinished wood cutout, a ribbon, scissors, and jute or twine.

Next, split your feathers into two groups (one larger, one smaller) and attach them to the wire end using glue sticks. Make sure they’re evenly spaced out on both sides of the wire, then secure them with hot glue at their center point for durability. Lastly, hang up your handmade Thanksgiving wreath on your front door by tying it with twine!
