Fall Dinning Room

Good Morning!

Yesterday I was able to put the finishing touches on my decor in the Dinning Room and I thought you might like a quick look at what I've done.

Once again, I really wanted to make sure my decor felt bright and airy but still give the room a cozy, festive look.





A simple white tablecloth hides the oak table beneath and give me a great base to work with.  I then added white dinnerware and silver flatware.




For a pop of color and texture I paired the dinnerware with a soft flannel napkin in a lovely plaid.

The napkins are so nice, I may end up making a few more to have on hand for Thanksgiving.  Not only are they super soft and helpful to use, I love the color it adds to the mostly white table.




For a centerpiece, I wanted something rustic looking.  

This plank of distressed wood makes the perfect base.




I next added this chunky pillar candelabra that I found at the thrift store.  I have been waiting months to use it, seems so perfect for this time of the year.




Around the base of the candelabra I slipped on a simple grapevine wreath.  I then attached a berry vine to the wreath by simply weaving it over and under the twigs of the wreath.  

And what's a fall centerpiece without a pumpkin or two!
  
I added two small pumpkins from my garden and some tin letters to fill in the remaining space on the distressed wood plank.

I think the whole arrangement turned out very nicely.

Every evening the battery operated candles I placed on the candelabra flicker on and makes the whole room glow - it's so pretty.




On the tiny mantel shelve behind the table I hung a pretty fall like print above the shelf.

I kept the shelf itself overly simplistic. 




I think it looks fantastic.




Simple faux branches of leaves tucked into a small tarnished sugar bowl.

Not only is it a great pop of color but simple and gorgeous!




A tiny pumpkin resting in a simple oval ironstone dish is the perfect accent under the print hanging above it.




On a corner table a trio of pumpkins and a unadorned grapevine wreath bring a little festive fun to the room.




So there you have it. 

My fall Dinning Room.

I am so pleased with how it turned out.

I'm thinking I will only have to add a few more items to transition it into a fresh look for my Thanksgiving table. That will be a big time saver for sure!



Hope you enjoyed . . . 

bye now,

Robin

  2. Your living room is beautiful with a fantastic balance of objects and color.
    The arches with chicken wire are my favorite. I'm a big arches fan.
