Fall Tablescapes

Creating a neutral fall tablescape can be both elegant and inviting. Here are some concise steps to design one:

1. Table Runner: Start with a neutral table runner in beige, cream, or burlap or don’t use anything and keep the table “naked”.
2. Centerpiece: Use a mix of natural elements like white pumpkins, gourds, pinecones, and eucalyptus branches.
3. Tableware: Opt for white or off-white plates and bowls. Pair them with neutral-toned napkins and rustic napkin rings.
4. Candles: Place white or ivory candles in varying heights for a warm, cozy glow.
5. Glassware and Cutlery: Choose simple, clear glassware and understated silver or gold cutlery.
6. Accents: Add subtle touches like wooden chargers, linen placemats, and minimalistic place cards.

Keep the color palette earthy and subdued to maintain the neutral theme.

I was digging through the dollar spot at Target and found the cutest little faux greenery and foliage stems! I couldn’t find them online, but I can bet you can find them at your local store! I inserted them in between the real live greenery branches I purchased at my local flower shop, it fit right in!
