Top 4 Tips to Hosting Thanksgiving in Your New Home

If you’ve recently moved into your new home, you’re probably looking forward to the next time guests will be over. With Thanksgiving only a handful of days away, now is the ideal time to flaunt your new abode. Due to COVID-19, your guest count may be smaller this year. Perhaps you have family and friends setting up times to video chat instead of coming to dinner. To ensure that everything goes off without a hitch, below are some suggestions to heed.

Decorate To Your Heart’s Content

With elaborate, festive decorations, you’ll give guests the warm welcome they deserve. What’s more, they’ll be so impressed by your decorating skills that they’ll insist on seeing the rest of the house. Not only does this allow you to show off your home’s makeover, but it also adds seasonal flair to the atmosphere. Your style will also shine through in photos or on video chats.

Prepare Every Room

Don’t leave any room untouched. If you really want to wow your visitors, highlight your home’s potential by keeping every room in tip-top shape. In other words, pull out all the stops. Bust out the fancy cutlery, make sure that your linens are fresh, and have ample lighting throughout the house. Clean counters and emptied trash cans will prove the cherries on top.

Cook In Advance

If the food is prepared by the time guests arrive, that’ll provide you the chance to give them a tour around the house. However, you don’t want any of the dishes to get cold. Consider keeping them in the oven or microwave until everyone is ready to eat. Best of all, as you show people around the home, the smell of freshly cooked Thanksgiving meals will delight their senses. Consider sending a gift basket or your special, secret-family cookies, to family who are unable to attend, so they know you are thinking about them this Thanksgiving.

Stay Organized

If you want to be the host with the most, have everything at the ready. For instance, an extra set of dishes, fresh glasses, and an abundance of condiments are thoughtful additions. Your new home will look so equipped that everyone will regard you as the optimal entertainer.
