Happy Thursday, sweet friends. August days are waning and it will soon be September. I am beginning to think about fall decorating! Have you already begun or just thinking, like me?
“In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”
1 John 4:10-11 (ESV)
I have rounded up autumn tabletop inspiration to give you ideas for your fall dinners with family and friends. Autumn is the perfect season for dining alfresco.
To view the original posts click the highlighted links.
Apples, dahlias, & a September table welcome Autumn with a celebration of apples in the flower arrangement and on the vintage Johnson Brothers ‘Harvest Time” dinner plates! Faux leather, burlap, and plaid add to charm of an early fall table!
You might notice that the same plaid tablecloth is used again but looks entirely different on this easing into autumn table. Tracy Porter ‘Artesian Road’ dinner plates, individual bud vases, and a peacock bowl as the floral centerpiece!
As most of you know, fall is my favorite color (season)! I love sharing memories that are often attached to an element on a table, like the old stoneware pitcher holding an autumnal arrangement!
I have always been drawn to the autumn color palette! Unusual art glass purses are carrying flowers and herbs cut from my garden!
Pumpkins, petals, and pleasures…bring together fall favorites to highlight the simple pleasures at a table set in the garden!
What could be better than a glorious October afternoon? By using the same fall tablecloths and dishes but figuring a way to use them in a different way can make your often used items seem new and fresh! Flowers are a mix from my garden and the grocery store!
Blue and white for autumn, why not? The arrangement is made up of branches from Japanese maples, crepe myrtle, sumac, and beautyberry and were cut by my Renaissance Man for an easy seasonal centerpiece! Foraging can produce an awesome arrangement!
A cozy autumn throw that has the feel of a warm sweater and a hammered copper pitcher is brimming with a mixture of dahlias, sunflowers, zinnias, celosia, and lantana!
Autumn’s harmony without fresh flowers, nor any real pumpkins, yet the table easily speaks of autumn with ceramic pumpkins and faux fall stems!
Johnson Brothers ‘Harvest Time’ dishware is perfect for the autumn season. For the centerpiece, copper mugs with garden clippings and candles were placed on my charcuterie board!
Autumn Wildflowers are so easy to forage in our woodlands and I love their look of wild and free on this garden table!
A box of autumn showcases my favorite dishes for the season…Spode ‘Woodland’ with different birds on each plate. Garden flowers and clippings were arranged in a box for a different centerpiece!
A blooming pumpkin plus a fall tablescape which features pumpkin plates and a pumpkin tablecloth!
A table that represents a happy October harvest of scuppernongs, muscadines, and nearby pumpkins!
I will be joining a group of fifteen talented table stylists for a Welcome Fall Tablescape Blog Hop this coming Tuesday, August 27th. I hope you will join me for autumn inspiration!
Thank you for your visit and gracious comments. Wishing you a delightful day!

Your yellow flower vase is a favorite of mine plus the pumpkin plates and the different colored water glasses. And even though I dread cold weather I love pumpkins and Fall foliage. My neighbor has pumpkin vines that have the prettiest orange ones and some green ones and she has offered to give me one. I might try to use it on a setting like you have done. So I’ll wish you Happy Fall.
Thank you, Alice. How very nice of your neighbor to share a pumpkin with you! We have had volunteer pumpkins come up, but they never amount to much. I know you will make a beautiful table or vignette with the gifted pumpkin. Happy decorating!
They are all so incredibly beautiful Pam! You have me dreaming of Fall and cooler temps! I think October is my favorite month, lots of sunny days and cool temps! AND pumpkins, my favortite part of Fall! I love your tablescape with the blooming pumpkin centerpiece. I’m looking forward to the tablescape hop next Tuesday~~
Thank you, Jenna. October is my favorite and I can never have too many pumpkins. Happy Thursday 🧡
Good morning, Pam! I adore and swoon over each of your tablescapes, but your autumn settings are always a favorite of mine. Each one of these table settings is stunning and a feast for the eyes. Like you, I haven’t started decorating for fall yet, but I am planning. I usually wait until after Labor Day to start my decorating. Happy Tuesday, sweet friend! Enjoy your day!
Thank you, Shannon for all of your sweet comments. I will also wait until after Labor Day to start, which is not far off. Enjoy your day!
Pam, Your compilation is beautiful. I love fall! I’m ready for cooler weather. Your sweet little bird salad plates are so cute! You know I am a fan of your peacock centerpiece and the adorable glass purse vases. We’ve enjoyed a couple cooler days, but tomorrow we’re back to higher heat and humidity. Hopefully, fall will arrive a little early and stay longer as this heat just wears you out. Enjoy your day! Clara❤️
Thank you, Clara for all of your sweet comments. We have also had a few cooler days, but the heat is returning. Happy Thursday ❤️
Pam I love all your tables for Autumn but especially the blue and white for Autumn setting.
There is something about the unexpected blue and white mixed with the rustic colors of Fall that are striking. I have not started decorating for Fall yet, but I have managed to dig out a few Autumn pieces with the intent of decorating….the Captain and I are traveling in our motorhome so most of the planning is being done on paper until I can be home again. As usual, Florida will have a subtle change in the weather but it is just enough to allow acknowledgement of the new season of the year. Before we know it…Christmas will be upon us. Have a great and wonderful day and upcoming Lord’s day.
Thank you, Kari! How exciting and fun to be traveling in your motor home. Enjoy every minute. I will miss you at the blog hop next week. Blessings and safe travels!
Good morning Pam. Your fall table looks beautiful. We are getting teased a little bit with some fall weather. The last few days it was fall like but now we are shooting back into the 90’s so summer is not done yet. Have a great rest of the week. Hugs.
Thanks so much, Kris. I appreciate you taking time to visit in the middle of moving!
Oh I love all those tables Pam! I’m going to go read all the ones I haven’t seen before, then go back and re-read the ones I already have! Thanks for another fabulous round of inspiration! (LOVE that copper!!)
Thank you, Barbara! Your sweet comments are heart-warming.
A beautiful round up of autumn table inspiration Pam! Like you, fall is my favorite season. It’s always a treat to have a virtual seat at your table. Looking forward to hopping with you next week. Happy Thursday! 🍂🍁🌰 🧡
Thanks Mary! Enjoy the cooler weather while it lasts🧡
Pam, there’s so much beauty and inspiration in every tablescape! I don’t know why I get tears when I visit here. Perhaps because I feel so blessed to be here another Fall with you. I know it’s your favorite–and mine, too! I’ve saved many of these on my Pinterest board, “Pam’s Place”. I’m not sure how to even choose–each one has something that stands out to me! The wildflowers, pumpkins, petals, and treasures say it all! The blooming pumpkin, the bird plates (the first bird plate–I love that!!). Blue and white in Autumn? Yes! You put so much time and effort into making sure the flowers, plates, tableware, chargers, vases, napkins, and stemware all represent the “theme” and beauty of the seasons! I’m so happy Fall is around the corner (and cooler weather). Your place is so beautiful–just like your heart and soul!
I’ll be headed to my old place near Branson this weekend for the Gospel Festival at Silver Dollar City. Right after this festival, they will decorate for their Fall Harvest festival. It’s such a joyous time. But still, I think your place is one of my favorites forever! Silver Dollar City doesn’t have Pam and Butch! Many prayers and blessings!I love you so much!
Karla, your sweet comments warm my heart! I am blessed that you are here for another fall. God is faithful as we pray for you. We all need encouraging and your comments came at a time I needed a boost. Thank you for your gift of words that are powerful and helpful. Enjoy the Gospel Festival at Silver
Dollar City!
Prayers and blessings, we love you❤️
A friend of mine headed off to Hobby Lobby this week to pick up a few things to create a garland for her mantle. I couldn’t go with her … but even if I could have, I’m just not ready to admit that fall is almost here. The summer has zipped by, but the cooler weather is whispering that it’s time to look forward.
Anyway, blue pumpkins and bittersweet vines are beginning to whisper my name again …
I understand you not being ready to embrace autumn. After weeks of high temps and humidity, autumn brings relief in the South!
Your autumn tablescapes are so warm and inviting, Pam. I love your use of color and of course the linens and flowers are spectacular! I’m so glad you don’t make us choose1
Thanks so much, Jeanie! Fall is full of color and I love it all!
Hi Pam, all your beautiful tablescapes are making me excited for Fall! We have had incredible weather the last few days…cool and no humidity. My Grandpa used to say there is always a cool week in August. By Sunday we will be 90 again, but for now I am enjoying every drop of this coolth as possible!
Thank you, Roxanne. We have enjoyed a few nice days but we will be back in the 90’s also! I know your screened porch is a great place to retreat, enjoy!
Pam, loved seeing these gorgeous fall tables again. Such versatility even using the same elements. I think my favorite is the one with the black pumpkin salad plates, so dramatic! Fall is a fabulous time for decorating with all the beautiful colors of autumn.
Thank you, Darlene. I also love the drama of the black pumpkins plates. Fall is my favorite season!
O Pam, of all the Seasons, I think your Autumn settings just shine through and radiate your favorite time of the year… Every feature, so carefully selected and displayed, are an inspiration of crimson/gold and
pumpkin playfulness. Fall is upon us and you know just how to greet and share it.
Thank you, Mary! I love sharing with sweet readers!

Thank you, Mary for your sweet comments. Autumn is my favorite season and I love the brilliants colors!
What a beautiful array of fall tablescapes. I remember each one!
Each table is rich in color and full of beauty. I can not pick a favorite.
I actually am thinking of decorating for fall very soon. You have given me such wonderful inspiration!
Thank you so much for your fabulous fall collection.
Thank you, Nancy. I am so glad you were inspired. Fall decorating is so much fun and I will get started next week, I think😉 Have a wonderful weekend!
Pam, each and everyone of these tables is drop-dead gorgeous! I love the glass purses – so unique – and the blooming pumpkin is fabulous. The linens are so pretty and I think it’s wonderful when you can use them in a different way to create a different table. I haven’t started decorating for fall yet – mostly because I can’t find half my stuff lol. Thank you for all the wonderful fall inspiration!
Thank you, Kim! I look forward to our blog hop this coming week and seeing your table in your new home. Happy Weekend!
Pam you are ready for Fall. Autumn has the nicest items to go along with the cool,clear weather. You have a lovely welcome to Autumn.
Marilyn,Joan and Marion
Thank you Marilyn, Joan, and Marion !
I am so excited that it is almost autumn! I praise God for sparing my life to see another one. Life is so precious and so fragile! God has shown us great mercy once again. May He bless you all!
Thank you, Cheryl. I love autumn! May God bless you and family!
