FALL TABLE IDEAS
Setting a Timeless Tablescape
Creating a captivating tablescape is an art form that goes beyond placing plates and utensils. It's about weaving a story through design, evoking emotions, and setting the stage for memorable gatherings. At StyleMeGHD, our designers understand the power of a well-set table - and today, we're excited to share our expert fall table setting tips to elevate your dining experience. We partnered with Cloth & Flame to create the ultimate desert tablescape for this year's look.
Establish a Base Layer
Just as a canvas provides structure for a painting, the base layer in table setting sets the stage for the entire dining experience. It establishes the color palette and tone, providing a backdrop against which all other elements, from dinnerware to centerpieces, can shine. This foundational layer not only adds visual appeal but also protects the table's surface and enhances the overall ambiance of the dining area, making it an essential component of any well-appointed table.
For our fall desert tablescape, we had the perfect neutral canvas with our Malia Dining Table. We then set each setting with our Gibson Plates, the perfect neutral plate set, to ground each section.
Use Botanicals As A Center Piece to Add Earthy Dimension
Elevating your table's aesthetics with a touch of nature as a centerpiece is a seamless way to infuse earthy elements into your tabelscape. The diverse array of botanical elements, from Valentine's Grass to Decorative Branches, introduces a harmonious blend of colors, shapes, and textures. These elements not only evoke a sense of natural beauty but also lend a refreshing, organic dimension to your table setting.
Incorporate Unique Serving Platters
Switching up the shape and size of your serveware is a great way to create a unique setting. For example, oval serveware is a versatile and elegant choice for a variety of dining occasions. Its distinctive shape offers several advantages that make it an excellent option for serving food. This provides ample space for arranging and presenting dishes attractively, allowing for a visually appealing and organized table setting.
Include Pops of Vintage Wood
Add a pop of vintage to your table with vintage serveware. Between wooden dough bowls or stone serving trays, there are so many options to add some timeless character to your space.
All of our vintage wooden pieces and stoneware are sourced from all over the globe. These antique pieces are built to last a lifetime, and are the ultimate statement makers.
Incorporate Seasonal Toned Candles to Set the Vibe
A tablescape is never complete without ambient lighting. Candles are the best way to set the mood while also adding texture and color to your table. The flicker of the lights is relaxing and adds a sense of warmth in the cooler seasons. Our Fancy Taper Candles feature a gorgeous fluted design and come in a wide array of colors for any occasion.
Style The Table With Organic Vases
Styling a table with organic vases is the perfect way to infuse your space with natural beauty and effortless charm. These handcrafted vessels, often made from earthy materials like clay, wood, or stone, bring the outdoors inside, creating a soothing and inviting ambiance.
