Roundup: 13 Gold and Copper DIY Ideas for This Year’s Thanksgiving Dinner

by on Nov 12, 2014

Move over brown and orange, there’s a new color scheme in town this Thanksgiving: gold and copper. They’re a little more lively and maybe even a bit more glam than those traditional colors you normally see during the fall season. So I’ve rounded up some of my favorite gold and copper DIY ideas that you can easily incorporate into this year’s Thanksgiving dinner decor. Bonus: Metallics look great year round, so you can reuse these DIY ideas long after Thanksgiving is over. Here are 13 gold and copper Thanksgiving DIY ideas to inspire you this holiday.
