I love decorating this room, despite the fact that we rarely have adult dinner parties in it (more like 6 family frat parties). But we had a social campaign with Anthropologie (some new, some I’ve had for a while), so I played around and set it up for those of you looking for some fall, harvest, or possibly Thanksgiving table setting ideas.
I really think this is my color palette these days – with blues, greens, deep burgundy and ochre/mustard. It’s all over the house (I can’t wait to show you the new living room next week). Glasses, cafe bowlsAnd matt In terms of color, they’re also perfect for the holidays, should you want to use them year-round.
Things that scream “fall/harvest” are especially salad plates, Napkin (doubtful – they may be higher throughout the year), and candle holder (Very beautiful but very delicate). centerpiece vase It’s so incredible – it now lives on my coffee table with the big black Halloween branches 🙂
It’s both colorful and soft, which I love.
white vase , bowl , harvest plate , dinner plate , plaid napkin , flatware (same) mat , small green wine glass Burgundy Wine Glass (No Longer Available) | burgundy vase , candle holder , taper candles (Similar)
This was shot on a day we were doing like 5 campaigns, so I set it up and told Caitlin to just go for it, while I shot something else with video in the other room (technically we didn’t have to shoot photos, it was just so beautiful and I love photography, so you can see a small vase in it with no flowers in it and some weird flatware, wrinkles, etc. – oops!). The flowers are from my garden, NBD 🙂
vase Definitely a splurge – a great heirloom item or gift for someone (and possibly on sale during the holidays). I don’t normally style those brown gingham napkins with these other colors, but I think the brown and amber candles in the plates help pull everything together.
We’ve gathered a bunch of our favorite Harvest/Fall tablescape pieces that are new this year, as some of the pieces above are no longer available. xx
1. Carved Edge Salad Plate 2. Marin Botanicals Stoneware Salad Plate 3. Strimmig Side Plate
If you like to have a full, different set of plateware for each holiday/season, more power to you! But a little trick that also saves storage space is to switch up your salad plates. Adds a little festive feel, and you can still use your everyday dinner plates.
1. Reactive Glaze Tapas Bowls (Set of 4) | 2. Stockholm 2025 Bowl (Set of 2) | 3. Stoneware Reactive Glaze Bowl (set of 4)
The same applies to bowls, if you prefer!
1. Ombonada Wine Glass (Set of 4) | 2. olivetrast glass 3. vintage goblet 4. Plum Stemless Wine Glass 5. Grooved Stem All-Purpose Wine Glass (Set of 4) | 6. acrylic tumbler 7. Miniature Recycled Pint Glasses 8. Crop Floral Sapphire Etched Glass 9. coupe glass
Beautiful glassware never goes out of style, and if it’s not “too holiday,” you can even display it year-round as a beautiful decoration.
1. glass beverage pitcher 2. verdagne pitcher 3. Marble Wine Chiller
We love the pitcher because it can be used as an actual pitcher or vase.
1. Eider Brown Glass Bud Vase 2. Amber Icon Ornate Glass Bud Vase 3. Essential Stoneware Table Vase
Speaking of vases, we would suggest choosing one main large vase, or just smaller vases with a few more smaller vases. You want to be able to talk to and see the people across the table from you.
1. Alcantara Frederick Leather Wrapped Candle Holder 2. MILANO Small Green Glass Taper Candle Holder 3. Mina Tall Taper Candle Holder
Boy, are we fond of great candle holders. They don’t block the view, don’t add dimension, and of course, add ambiance.
1. plum wax candle 2. Pumpkin Orange Dipped Taper Candles (Set of 2) | 3. acorn wax candles (set of 10)
For more added dimension, fun candles are a great way to achieve this! You can choose an interesting shape or simply choose a colorful taper.
1. Fall Glass Pumpkin (Set of 3) | 2. Paper Mache Pumpkin Placecard Holder (Set of 4) | 3. knitted pumpkins (set of 6)
Is it a harvest or Thanksgiving table without at least one pumpkin??
1. Washed Spice Orange Linen Napkins with Fringe Trim (Set of 4) | 2. plaid napkin (Set of 4) | 3. floral napkins (Set of 4) | 4. Ivory and Chestnut Border Block Printed Napkins (Set of 4) | 5. Block Print Ruffle Napkins (Set of 2) | 6. Marin Walnut Linen Buffalo Check Napkins
There are many great cloth napkins on the market. They can add color and pattern instantly.
1. knitted charger (Set of 2) | 2. round placemat 3. Reversible Placemat Scallop (Set of 2) | 4. Olive Knitted Placemat (Set of 2) | 5. VÅRARV Place Mat 6. Mason Hand-Woven Cotton Fringe Placemat (set of 4)
The same applies for placemats and all of them are great.
1. Fall plaid oversized runner 2. Marin Spruce Green Buffalo Check Linen Table Runner 3. Autumn Botanical Linen Runner
And if you want to go all out, include a runner too! Or you can simply skip the placemats and just use a runner.
1. Dutch Bread Oven 2. Floral Ceramic Soup Tureen 3. Wavy Edge Soup Terrine
Of course, a dish with a pretty lid for those “need to keep warm” foods can be pretty too, right?
1. Oval Stoneware Floral Serving Dish 2. Large Stoneware Cauliflower Serving Bowl 3. floral pottery serving dish
Then serving the thali is where we feel your personality can really shine. Are you “colored people”? “eccentric production lover”? “new classic”? Your plate can take you there 🙂
1. Le Creuset Pumpkin Butter Dish 2. Carved Side Gravy Boat 3. Stoneware Butter Dish with Knife
And finally, to top it all off, put a nice butter and/or gravy boat on the table. that sweet le creuset one Expensive, but one that can be sold.
That’s a special part about festive tableware: You make so many memories on these dishes, vases, and even table linens that the next generation will likely want at least some of them for their own homes. Decoration is something that holds memories and that’s what we love. Happy table setting everyone!
