Rooster dishes, pinecones, and a homemade log centerpiece brought fall to this table for two. I added a free printable on a little bottle stand and a white pitcher filled with faux autumn foliage.
Mike had made the rustic log centerpiece a few weeks earlier, and I had been using it whenever I could. The original photographs show real tea lights on the wood. For this arrangement, use battery-operated lights instead, keeping flames away from the log, ribbon, leaves, and paper.
A printable stands above the centerpiece
The little sign carries an autumn tree and a saying about taking time to watch the leaves turn. You can download the fall printable and see how I mounted it, or simply print and frame it.
Pinecones, seeds, and colorful glass holders
I gathered pinecones outdoors and scattered pumpkin seeds around the centerpiece. My Dollar Tree glasses wrapped with dyed sisal added color; the photograph shows cinnamon sticks and autumn trim inside one.
Rooster dinnerware and a fall-filled pitcher
I set out my Pfaltzgraff Napoli rooster dinnerware and the rooster flatware my mom had given me a few years earlier.
Faux leaves and pumpkins filled a white pitcher from Marshalls. The orange foliage gave the table the autumn color that the trees outside had not quite developed yet.
As the sun went down, the setting took on a more romantic mood. It was a way to enjoy the pieces we already had while marking the change of season.
This table was part of the Fall Into Autumn series with On Sutton Place, Creative Cain Cabin, and Cottage at the Crossroads. The other settings included a sunflower and apple table and an Autumn Welcome table.
