This post is old but ideas are still great!
Today my wife and I redid the front door/step for our fall and thanksgiving theme. An old milk can painted black with a pot of mums placed on top a small bale of straw with a pot of mums and some small pumpkins. Cleans out the summer planter and replanted with mums. Larger pumpkins were placed around the steps to help fill in the space. Corn stalks were cut and placed to the side to add to the feeling of fall!

Stick with three colors that compliment your exterior. I like to use autumn colors that can carry over until I decorate for Christmas. You could choose a red berry wreath and use fall color ribbons to suggest thanksgiving, then change the ribbon for holiday colors.

Don't you just love holidays! Front door wreath silk or fresh pine with mums, sunflowers and wired ribbon with fall color. Traditional dried cornstalk bale of hay pumpkins and gourds. It's really nice to have fresh items, even though silk and faux last longer.

That's a nice idea Yvonne, thanks! I think that combining the two ideas I have recieved so far I will have a great front door.
As I said to Anne, I wish you and your family a very special Thanksgiving Day this year! Thanks again for your kind help

I like to bring a tall/vertical element (think simple urn or container) beside the entry and add a faux or inexpensive green boxwood or evergreen. You can add ribbons and or elements (tiny twinkling lights) by the season to the trees. I keep the door plain if I do this. You can do one or two urns
by the door if room allows.
