A Fall Place Setting with Faux Leaves and Blue-and-Orange Napkins

A Better Homes & Gardens cover inspired this fall place setting. The magazine had been sitting on my coffee table, and when I picked it up for ideas, I realized I could put together my own version.

Faux leaves bring in the fall colors

I used faux leaves because the trees here had not started changing color yet. The yellow, orange, and green leaves add the autumn look without waiting for the season outside to catch up.

Layered napkins and a ribbon bow

The photograph shows blue and orange napkins layered over a yellow plate, with silverware alongside. Orange ribbon ties the leaf stems together over the napkins.

It was a small arrangement assembled for the photograph, taking an idea from the magazine cover and adapting it to my own table.
