FALL TABLESCAPE IDEAS

Erin Spain

Fall has arrived, and it’s the perfect time to think about entertaining. Incorporating touches of fall into your decor doesn’t have to be complicated. I’ll share a few simple ways you can bring fall inside by adding some seasonal details to a fall tablescape.

When you hear the word “fall,” what’s one of the first things that come to mind? Pumpkins! Mini pumpkins are a great addition to any fall table, and white ones complement any decor. Also, skipping the traditional “rules” about silverware placement and wrapping them in jute twine instead adds a fun rustic touch.

Painting the stem of your pumpkins gold adds a modern, glam detail, and chalkboard place cards are pretty for any season. Water hyacinth chargers used as place mats add some nice texture.

A simple, inexpensive idea for a centerpiece is to gather pinecones and paint the tips gold (or any color you choose!). Here they are displayed in a rustic antler bowl, but any bowl will do.

 

You don’t have to stick to a traditional fall color palette. Branching out and incorporating blues and greens is a nice way to put a modern spin on fall decorating while adding something a bit unexpected. This table features plates with a blue-green watercolor effect, which pair perfectly with this beautiful blue Mohawk area rug.

 

 

You don’t have to cover your entire table with decor. Sometimes a few simple pieces are all you need. Mixing textures and patterns add impact and allow the “less is more” philosophy to work.

What are your favorite things to include in a fall tablescape?
