With Turkey Day on its way, there’s a lot to prepare: buying a quality meat thermometer to cook the perfect turkey, setting up your taper candles on your dining table and inviting your loved ones over for a memorable meal.
But, hosting doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Luckily, you can set your entire Thanksgiving table with IKEA — and the Post Wanted team is going to show you exactly how.
While we recommend splurging on a dinnerware set to last the long haul, picking up extra items for your tablescapes doesn’t have to put you into debt. So, IKEA’s Thanksgiving Shop is all the talk (and no, it’s not too early).
