Hello everyone! I’m excited that you decided to visit the blog today. I wanted to share how to create a cozy autumn tablescape at home. My goal was to design something warm and inviting, as our table is a space where we share conversations, drink coffee, tackle homework, and simply enjoy each other’s company.
I typically don’t go all out when decorating my dining table, but I wanted to show you how I styled it using decor pieces I already had. I would love for you to join me in this decorating adventure!

Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home
Items I'm adding to my table:
-White tablecloth runner
- Battery-operated leaf lights
- Reusing glass jars
- Mini pumpkins and other fall decorations
- Small "Hello Fall" sign
- Faux flowers
I began by spreading my white tablecloth down the center of the table. Around Halloween, I purchased this tablecloth a few years ago at my local Walmart. After laying it out, I realized that I could achieve that look by layering two tablecloths if I wanted a fuller appearance.
Next, I decided to incorporate my battery-operated leaf lights, which I bought at Dollar Tree some time ago. I thought they would complement the autumn theme perfectly. If the lights are too long, you can simply take the end and overlap them.
I also love adding mini pumpkins to my designs whenever possible, so I included them on the table along with some faux flowers I had cut.
As many of you know, I enjoy reusing glass jars, so I opted to use a pasta glass jar to display the flower centerpiece. The flowers I chose have a lovely wildflower look, featuring a mix of purple, yellow, and green hues.
In front of the flower centerpiece, I placed a "Hello Fall" sign, along with a smaller glass jar filled with flowers to enhance the table's decor.
To finalize the tablescape, I added my two squirrels, which are a set of salt and pepper shakers I found at Dollar Tree. Aren't they just adorable?
Now the tablescape is complete! I love how simple it was to put together, and it truly creates a cozy atmosphere in our home. I lit a candle and placed it on the table, making the space feel warm and inviting. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy our morning coffee, gather, chat, and spend quality time as a family. Thank you for joining me as I created this cozy autumn tablescape!

Thank you very much.
DeleteI would like to use a Pashmina Shawl as a runner
ReplyDeleteHow can I protect it from spills, oil stains, etc any spray or DIY that you can recommend..
Thanks
That will be beautiful. My only suggestions would be to gently wash it. Hand wash or a delicate cycle. Some suggest using a mild detergent or even baby wash. I hope that helps.
DeleteLove this idea! It will be featured on Happiness is Homemade this Sunday. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSusan, thank you so much! I appreciate it. 😊
