9 things to buy at QVC if you are hosting Thanksgiving this year
I can always rely on QVC to provide everything I need to make me a better host and get my home ready for the cozy season
What I have always loved about QVC is it has everything, I am talking homeware and appliances specifically here, but pop anything in that search bar and it will throw up something similar to what you are after. That's why it's my go to over hosting season because I know I can buy everything I need all it one place, and for great prices too.
So if you are hosting this Thanksgiving, or having friends over around the holidays, these are the 9 things I would recommend you buy from QVC. These picks will give your home a festive feel and help you be a better host.
9 things to buy at QVC to make fall hosting a dream
This brand has gone viral on TikTok, with millions and millions of views obsessed with how these beautiful loaf pans turn out. Despite the incredibly detailed designs, in all the videos on social media, the cakes slide out like a dream. The result makes it look like you have but in hours of effort when in reality all you might have done is pour batter into a pan.
Whether you are a novice baker or have experience, every kitchen could do with the help of a stand mixer, especially over Thanksgiving when hosting is always on the cards. I asked our Appliance Editor (and trained chef) Lydia which model she would recommend and she didn't hesitate to put forward the KitchenAid 5-qt Artisan Stand Mixer – bonus, it's currently on sale at QVC.
And you need somewhere beautiful to display all your baking efforts and this pumpkin cake stand ticks the box. It would make for a lovely centerpiece on your kitchen table, filled with tempting treats for guests to enjoy.
A wreath is a must for me at Thanksgiving, it welcomes guests into your home and sets the festive mood. I am quite picky when it comes to faux options, but the organic shape and life-like leaves and berries rival the real one I usually make, plus this one will last longer and can come out year after year.
I love the rustic feel of this tablecloth and it's the perfect color scheme for my Thanksgiving table. I like to include rusty oranges and browns as a subtle nod to the season, but it still works with my more neutral decor and tableware.
And to just really up those fall vibes, these napkins are timeless but will still add a touch of whimsy to a scheme. They are machine washable too, which is something I always look for when buying tablecloths and napkins.
A Our Place Always Pan was on my Christmas list last year, so this will be my first Thanksgiving using it. It's already had so much use and has been a game-changer when hosting because I love doing a one-pan dish and then placing it in the center of the table for everyone to help themselves. This makes for a great gift too and it's got a huge discount right now.
Thanksgiving cookware doesn't get more chic than this. The Le Creuset pumpkin range is as good quality as it is adorable, so you can be assured it will last, becoming a family tradition to get it out year after year. Again, I love this cocotte because it doubles as table decor and always gets a reaction from my guests when I present it at the table.
For when I am hosting around Thanksgiving and don't have time to bake, I do have time to light a candle. These candles get 100s (nearly 1000s) of rave reviews on QVC and come in plenty of delicious fall scents to fill your home with spicy, sweet aromas.
Fall is hosting season, so it helps to have some help in the kitchen and of course make sure your tablescaping and decor are on point. These buys from QVC will ensure you and your guests have a stress-free time over the holidays.
