Tablescape Tuesday: Just Around The Corner

~ Autumn, Food & Entertaining, Tablescape Tuesday

“Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God”
Psalm 20:7

When daylight savings time ends, that means two things: longer evenings and Thanksgiving is on its way!  Can you believe that in a little over two weeks, we will be carving turkey and eating pumpkin pie?  It’s never too early to be thinking of those who will gather around your table, and how you can make the holiday special for each and every one!  Today, I am sharing with you, my sweet readers, another autumn tablescape that would also be perfect for that Thursday that we all look forward to!  You will notice, it is a mixture of colors and textures, but that shouldn’t surprise you if you have been a reader of my blog for very long!  I hope today’s table will inspire you if you are hosting friends and family in your home.  Next week I will be sharing our Thanksgiving tablescape!  After all, it is the holiday just around the corner!

 
I use this trio of ceramic pumpkins every year during the autumn season. I have had them so long that I can’t remember where I bought them!

 
Using burlap as the table runner provides great texture!

 
Normally, I would have beautiful autumn leaves, but the drought has wreaked havoc on autumn color.  At least I have pretty nandina that I can cut and use!

 
I mixed two different colors of dinner plates…a warm orange and an apple green!  Different colored leaf plates complete the dish stack.  Love the mix not the match!!

 
Bronze stands add height and accent the pumpkins.


I use the faux tortoise flatware constantly during the fall season, it is just perfect for this time of year! Rattan chargers add more texture.

I know you see this stemware often during this season, but the amber, amethyst, and peridot are perfect colors for autumn.  The candles are nestled in popcorn.


“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver”
Proverbs 25:11

  1. I never tire of seeing the versatility of mixing and re-using perfect pieces, Pam. I love this table, and the Nandina is also perfect with its bronze foliage this time of year. Very colorful and festive!

  4. Pam, your Thanksgiving table is absolutely beautiful! I always love seeing your gorgeous dining room too! What a wonderful idea using the pretty Nandina foliage! We have had a drought too and are lacking Fall color this year. All of the gorgeous color on your table made me smile this morning! I hope that you have a happy and blessed day!!!

  9. I love the mix and match! This is one of my favorites tablescapes of all you’ve done. Why? Well, I may not have mentioned it before, but your window treatments are stunning. I’ve always loved them, and green is in my top 3 faves. This tablescape accentuates the colors in your dining room so well that it sings songs of joy! It’s wonderful how your ceramic pumpkins are timeless – even with the longer stems! I hope you’re having a wonderful week.

  10. LOVE it Pam!! LOVE the happy colors and the feeling of excitement you have created! It’s wonderful to hear and see someone who is embracing a wonderful holiday season rather than hearing so many say they are dreading the holidays! This table says, “bring it on, we’re ready and we’re going to enjoy every minute!” I love your pumpkin trio too, I saw some wonderful glass ones today and was oh so tempted 🙂 Beautiful!

  17. Pam, Great table! The pumpkins are great colors, I love the ideas to put popcorn in the candle holders, and pop of apple green in the plates works. Sylvia D.

  20. Your Thanksgiving table is stunning and so is your dining room. I love, love those ceramic pumpkins, they are adorable and really make the festive table come to life and you did a great job raising them on pedestals.
