Thanksgiving table finds

Why consider it: Two deep loops of greenery across the wall are what make it look full, and four 6 ft lengths give you enough to swag the whole width with tails at each end.

Before choosing: These are faux autumn-tone eucalyptus vines, not the mix of eucalyptus, pampas, wheat and oak leaves in the picture. Twist two together for the thickness shown, and tuck in dried wheat or pampas if you want that texture.

Why consider it: The amber orange slices are what glow when the lights come on, and a pre-strung run is the quickest way to weave them through the greenery.

Before choosing: This is a single strand of slices on twine, so you wrap it through the garland yourself rather than getting slices wired in. Real dried fruit varies in colour, and 30 slices is fewer than the picture shows across the whole swag.

Why consider it: A round wreath above the centre of the swag gives the wall a focal point and lifts the eye above the table.

Before choosing: At 12 in it is far smaller than the large wheat and orange wreath in the picture, and it is all orange slices with no wheat or leaves. It comes with a red ribbon you may not want for this look.

Why consider it: Large removable hooks carry the swag and wreath with no nails, so the whole wall comes down after the holiday.

Before choosing: These are bronze double hooks, darker than the brass hooks in the picture and a different shape. You need four for this layout, so buy two packs. Each is listed for up to 4 lb; weigh the swag first and follow the listing for the surfaces they stick to.

Why consider it: Tiny warm lights tucked deep into the greenery are what make the wall glow at dusk, and the battery boxes hide behind the swag with no cords.

Before choosing: The wire is silver-coloured copper, not a copper tone, though it disappears inside the foliage. Thread the lights through before you hang the swag.

Why consider it: A rust linen runner sets the warm palette for the whole table and softens the oak.

Before choosing: At 72 in it is shorter than the runner in the picture, which hangs over both ends of a long table; measure yours, as two may be needed. The hemstitch edge is a detail the picture does not show.

Why consider it: Woven chargers under each plate add texture and make six simple settings feel finished.

Before choosing: These are woven water hyacinth with a golden tone, close to the chargers in the picture, though the weave pattern differs.

Why consider it: Plain cream stoneware lets the greenery and candlelight carry the colour.

Before choosing: The listing names the colour as beige; the plates in the picture are a soft cream with a low rim, so check the photos for the shade and shape you want.

Why consider it: A natural napkin tied with twine and a rosemary sprig is a small, cheap touch that makes each place look cared for.

Before choosing: They are a cotton and linen blend, not pure linen. The title says a set of 6 but one feature line mentions 12, so check the count before you order. Twine and rosemary are not included.

Why consider it: Tall tapers give the table height and a warm glow with no open flame near dried leaves.

Before choosing: They are plastic made to look like wax, and the flicker can be set to steady. The picture shows five tapers on the table, so you will have spares.

Why consider it: Slim brass candlesticks spaced down the runner repeat the brass on the wall and the gold cutlery.

Before choosing: These come in three heights, where the picture shows candlesticks of one height. They are metal with a brass-gold finish; the listing does not say solid brass.

Why consider it: Small white pumpkins tucked into the centrepiece are the clearest Thanksgiving signal on the table.

Before choosing: They are foam and all white, where the picture also has pale sage-green pumpkins, pears and pomegranates. 52 pieces is plenty for the table, the windowsill and the stack by the lantern.
