According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delish.com\/food-news\/a33957858\/what-is-friendsgiving\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alexis Morillo<\/a>, Associate Editor at <em>Delish<\/em>, <strong>\u201cThe earliest use of the term Friendsgiving dates back to a 2007 tweet, but some people credit the hit show Friends for inspiring the concept of spending the holiday with friends. Another theory suggests that a 2011 ad campaign by Baileys Irish Cream liqueur used the word, giving the Friendsgiving movement more momentum. Since then, it&#8217;s become a word that refers to a Thanksgiving dinner celebrated with friends.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you live far away from your family and don\u2019t have time to travel home for the holidays, or you simply prefer to celebrate the occasion with your friends, Friendsgiving is your chance to observe the holiday your own way\u2014with whatever <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/15-cool-friendsgiving-food-ideas-for-your-next-gathering\/\">foods<\/a> and traditions you like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for some sweet and unique Friendsgiving ideas to celebrate your crew around a table laden with delicious dishes?

Here\u2019s how to make your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/15-cool-friendsgiving-food-ideas-for-your-next-gathering\/\">friendsgiving menu<\/a> memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Unique meal focus (not just turkey)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you want to host a vegetarian Friendsgiving or you simply desire a change from turkey, consider coming up with something new as the focus of the menu. If your group of friends is from a mix of cultural backgrounds, not all of them will have grown up with a traditional turkey dinner. Ask everyone to bring a dish that reminds them of the holidays in their family, and honor the different ways that you celebrate the harvest season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. DIY pie bar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to make sure there are enough pie options for gluten-free guests or those with food allergies? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epicurious.com\/recipes\/food\/views\/build-your-own-thanksgiving-pie-bar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Katherine Sacks<\/a>, Associate Food Writer Emeritus at <em>Epicurious<\/em>, recommends setting up a DIY pie bar. It\u2019s essentially like a taco bar, but with pie toppings instead. You\u2019ll make little round pastries (including vegan and gluten-free options) and provide fresh fruit, cream, and other toppings so that everyone can create their own perfect pie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Cranberry cocktails<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While you can expect your guests to bring a few bottles of wine, why not get creative with some seasonal cocktails? From cranberry daiquiris to Moscow mules, check out these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brit.co\/cranberry-cocktail-recipes-for-thanksgiving\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">creative cranberry cocktail ideas<\/a> that are perfect for the holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"activities\">Friendsgiving game and activity ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-1024x683.avif 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-300x200.avif 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-768x512.avif 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-750x500.avif 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site.avif 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-1024x683.webp 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-300x200.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-750x500.webp 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-1024x683.jpg\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/camp-site.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-116992 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Close up of a sign reading &quot;Camp Store&quot; with a small wooden cabin in the background\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Peerspace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:9px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A great Friendsgiving doesn\u2019t stop at great food, so plan a few activities to keep the laughs flowing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Pie-making contest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For some groups of friends, dessert is the most important part of the Friendsgiving menu. After all, it\u2019s the time of year when we get to enjoy fresh seasonal treats like apple pie and pumpkin pie! Host a pie-making contest so that everyone gets to sample homemade pies and vote on their favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Photo booth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best things about Friendsgiving is that you get to avoid awkward family photos with relatives you only see once a year. But that doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t take some pictures to remember the occasion!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An easy way to do that is to set up a photo booth area so that guests who like pictures can participate and those who don\u2019t can opt out. Set up a camera and backdrop, and include some Thanksgiving-themed props and costumes that your guests can have fun with!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Clothing swap<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s time to dig some warmer clothes out of the closet and pass along anything that doesn\u2019t fit you to a new owner. Hosting a clothing swap is among one of the easiest Friendsgiving ideas that can accomplish two things at once. Your friends can all try on some new clothes and update their wardrobes, and anything that gets left behind can be donated to Goodwill or another local charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Camping trip Friendsgiving<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make the most of the season by celebrating Friendsgiving outdoors. If you live in a part of the country with mild falls and winters, you can plan a camping trip and enjoy dinner around the campfire. Or, if you live somewhere where Thanksgivings are generally too cold to celebrate outdoors, consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/plan\/cabin\">renting a cozy cabin<\/a> through Peerspace and hosting Friendsgiving there instead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Give back to your community<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You and your friends are lucky to have one another, but not everyone is lucky enough to have family or close friends to depend on. Why not choose a charity and volunteer your time during your annual Friendsgiving gathering?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pick an organization that appeals to your group, be it Meals on Wheels, a local animal shelter, or a local soup kitchen, and spend a few hours together volunteering to deliver meals, take care of the shelter animals, dish out food, or anything else they might need. It\u2019ll strengthen your bond with your friends while allowing you to help the neediest members of your community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e9ebef;color:#e9ebef\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro tip: <\/strong>For even more interactive ideas, here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/friendsgiving-game-ideas\/\">15 Friendsgiving game ideas for every vibe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e9ebef;color:#e9ebef\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"decor\">Friendsgiving decor inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-1024x683.avif 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-300x200.avif 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-768x512.avif 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-750x500.avif 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers.avif 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-1024x683.webp 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-300x200.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-750x500.webp 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-1024x683.jpg\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/overhead-shot-table-runner-of-appetizers.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-117000 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Overhead shot of a dining table set with a runner filled with fruit and cheese\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Peerspace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:9px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Set the scene with decor that\u2019s cozy, creative, and a little unexpected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Edible autumn centerpiece<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Why settle for a centerpiece that says \u201clook but don\u2019t touch\u201d when your table can be a harvest feast for eyes <em>and <\/em>taste buds?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start with a long wooden tray, a shallow basket, or a cutting board. Layer it with small gourds in shades of orange, creams, and green, then weave in fragrant herbs like rosemary, thyme, and sage. Scatter nuts, dried fruits, and berries for pops of color, and sneak in mini jars of honey, caramel dip, and preserves so guests can casually snack as they chat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to arrange items at different heights for greater depth, and make sure the edible pieces are easy to grab without dismantling your masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. DIY paper lanterns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of standard candles on the table and string lights hung above you, create small DIY lanterns with intricate autumn-themed cutouts in the shapes of leaves, acorns, or abstract geometric patterns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use thin cardstock, cut out designs, and place a battery-operated tea light or fairy light inside. When the lights flicker, they\u2019ll cast delicate, moving shadows across the table, walls, or mantel, giving your space a warm, magical glow without the risk of open flames. You can line a few along a windowsill or create a mini \u201clantern path\u201d on a sideboard or buffet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The effect is cozy and Instagram-worthy, and because the shadows dance, it adds motion and depth to your d\u00e9cor. That\u2019s something standard string lights can\u2019t achieve!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e9ebef;color:#e9ebef\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro tip: <\/strong>Need even more inspiration?

Collaborative menu planning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important things to keep in mind about Friendsgiving is that it\u2019s typically planned as a potluck, with everyone bringing a dish or two to share. As the host, you should plan to cook the main dish and set a theme for the evening, but ask your friends to bring everything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an easy solution, create an online spreadsheet (i.e., in Google Sheets) so that everyone can sign up for a dish ahead of time. That way, you\u2019ll avoid having multiple people bringing the same items. Plus, you\u2019ll have an idea of how much food to expect, making sure all of the most important dishes are covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Take-out boxes for leftovers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that none of the food goes to waste by preparing to-go boxes ahead of time. You can buy Thanksgiving-themed containers or a fresh set of Tupperware. Alternatively, you can use one Costco half-tray tin per household, filled assembly-line style at the end of the night. This way, you won\u2019t have to worry about finding matching lids when everyone\u2019s on their way out the door!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"finding-ideas-that-work-for-you\">Finding Friendsgiving ideas that work for you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-1024x683.avif 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-300x200.avif 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-768x512.avif 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-750x500.avif 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers.avif 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-1024x683.webp 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-300x200.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-750x500.webp 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-1024x683.jpg\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/outdoor-table-full-of-flowers.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-116997 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Outdoor dining table full of flowers and pumpkins\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Peerspace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Every Friendsgiving is unique.

Nina is also passionate about architecture and interior design, so she\u2019s thrilled to be able to research and write about beautiful Peerspaces in cities all around the world. When she\u2019s not writing or editing, Nina spends most of her time watching indie horror movies, falling down obscure Wikipedia rabbit holes, or training her cat to walk on a leash.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.gunthersegal.com","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ninagunthersegal"],"url":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/author\/nina-gunther-segal\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/27"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117007"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117007\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":119563,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117007\/revisions\/119563"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/117001"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117007"},{"taxonomy":"cohort","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cohorts?post=117007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
