Fall Tablescapes: Same Items, Two Ways

I just love setting a pretty table for company or for my family!  Today I’ll share how to use the same accessories two different ways to set two beautiful fall tablescapes!

For both table settings, I used:
-swirly white Corelle dishes
-gingham napkins
-a round jute placemat from IKEA
-orange fall leaf salt & pepper shakers
-a cinnamon apple candle
-a big white pumpkin

First, I used the aforementioned items as well as some maroon dogwood leaves from our yard to create a cozy tablesetting.

The runner on the table is a lovely scrap of fabric my mom gave me.

I printed off the little Thanksgiving flags from here.

I folded the napkins to form a little pocket, into which I inserted a dogwood stem.

I scattered leaves around the centerpiece as well.

This pumpkin makes me smile!

For the second tablescape, I used some quilted fabric placemats and some woven napkin rings to create a company-ready, seasonally appropriate table!

The placemats are beautiful on their own, so I opted not to use a tablecloth or a runner.

Stuffing the napkins into rings gives a slightly less formal, but still lovely, affect.

So there you have it… same accessories, two different fall table settings!
