There's a cornucopia of ways to create a warm, inviting Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving celebration that's well-suited for delicious spreads of all kinds. But, undoubtedly, our favorite way to amplify your Thanksgiving kitchen décor is with delicious kitchen tile. Whether you're passing around cocktails to guests, cozying up to a cup of hot cocoa, bonding over endless charcuterie boards, or creating a sit-down dinner with all the fixings, let these seven tile ideas be a feast for your senses and inspire your next holiday gathering.
Rethink Your Home Bar
When you're shaking up a cocktail or pouring a glass of wine for guests, you want a home bar worthy of all the cheers. Tiling the wall of a built-in bar is a quick-fire way to add immediate swagger. This handsome bar, designed by @sho.and.co, features our Black 2"x6" Zellige tile, and it's coming correct with all the best and moodiest Mad Men vibes.View this post on Instagram
Pour a Hot Coffee (or Cocoa)
Nothing's comfier in a kitchen than an exquisite coffee bar that provides a moment of pause during the holiday chaos — and a necessary caffeine boost. There are many ways to create one, but adding tile to the backsplash will immediately upgrade your next cup. Take this example from @gildedheights, which is classically handsome with our Nero Marquina Black Marble Herringbone tile.View this post on Instagram
From dark to light, you can also welcome in a brighter caffeine buzz with a setting inspired by @jaci.daily that's bolstered by our Natural White 4"x4" Zellige tile. It's the perfect spot for a pick-me-up with panache.View this post on Instagram
Word to the wise: Make sure that the coffee bar doubles as a delicious cocoa station, which is especially fun for holiday entertaining. This festive hot chocolate station from @thecozyfarmhouse boasts all the best accouterments, and our Natural White 2"x6" Zellige tile ties it together with a marshmallow on top.View this post on Instagram
Go Winter White
The beautiful thing about winter whites is that they never go out of season — even when the holidays are over. White tile also looks stunning with holiday greenery. This dreamy scene by @janaroach immediately offers a nostalgic holiday attitude — and our Snow 4"x4" Zellige tile is a winter wonderland, no matter what the weather is like outside.View this post on Instagram
This chic little kitchen from @onelildoe also gets in on the Christmas greenery game with sweet little wreaths to complement our Natural White 4"x4" Zellige tile, with gold accents and hardware throughout.View this post on Instagram
And in this rustic-chic space, our Natural White 2"x6" Zellige tile is a lovely backdrop to @ashleylynhome's freshly cut flowers and glowing taper candles made for a Thanksgiving table design. You can almost smell the sweetness of the scratch-made pies cooling in quiet, soft corners, waiting for guests to arrive.View this post on Instagram
Deck Your Kitchen in Green
Using a lush green tile accent in the kitchen not only feels like a breath of freshness and renewal, but it also just so happens to fit right into any holiday greenery you might be adding to your space. This backsplash from @kristiekoningdesign is one way to introduce the hue and features our Sea Green 2"x6" Zellige. (Peep that rich vermillion oriental rug, too; a convenient pairing for a holiday red-and-green flair!)View this post on Instagram

Upgrade your kitchen from dated to retro-fabulous with a colorful tile twist. It's as simple as using our new Rouge 2"x6" Zellige tile, as @alexandragater did here. It's a delight in this vintage-inspired space — and, at the holidays, this tile color morphs into one that references cherry pie filling. We aren't mad about that at all.View this post on Instagram
Consider a Custom Buffet
A custom buffet nook can be an entertainer's best friend — especially during the holidays. Tile can transform a lackluster area into something statement-making. Case in point? This dining area off the kitchen from @craven_haven. She proves that black can be ever-so-festive in a dramatic, moody way. Our 4"x4" black Zellige tile plays the starring role here. Simply add a floating shelf to display beautiful serveware, floral, and seasonal décor — and it's the perfect complement to any Thanksgiving table design.View this post on Instagram
Mix and Match
We love being surprised by designers' endless creativity — and here, the talented @theinteriorcollective created a space that looks straight out of Tuscany, which is especially festive for holiday entertaining. She mixed and matched our Sea Green 4"x4" Zellige tile and Forest Green 4"x4" Zellige tile to brilliant effect. Who knew these two shades of green could look so lovely when paired in a timeless yet trendsetting checkerboard pattern? We can totally see an endless charcuterie board holding court with that backdrop. — For more holiday inspiration, follow us over on Instagram.
