Fall Centerpieces and Vignettes

As we flip our calendars to September,

it’s time to add some Fall decor to our home

A September Pumpkin stacked with flowers

can be a centerpiece or a decoration

Fill a glass vase or cylinder with real or faux baby pumpkins

and add stems of leaves, pine cones, dried flowers

OR

Make a row of glass vases down a table center

or arrange them in 2s or 3s on shelves or your mantel

You can fill the vases with acorns, pinecones, and leaves

The arrangement below at a Festive Fall Table

includes Bird of Paradise flowers for pops of orange,

along with big, bright sunflowers

and green thistles with orange buds

Add twinkle lights for evening magic

Instead of flowers, choose wheat stalks

{I did tuck a few faux sunflowers in the rim}

The different textures of these faux pumpkins

are a great pairing with the wheat

Fall Tray

A wood tray or basket

filled with candles, pumpkins, pine cones and leaves

would look so pretty on a coffee table

Or a kitchen table, or anywhere!

Use flat top pumpkins to elevate dishes on a buffet

A log topped with moss, leaves and mini lights

would look beautiful on a mantle

or as a long and low centerpiece on a dining table

Using mini lights eliminates fire danger from lit candles

A lantern is a wonderful way to safely enjoy a lit candle

Style it with pumpkins, moss and leaves

Gather thin twigs and branches into a tight bundle,

and tie them with a ribbon

Wrap the bundle a string of tiny warm white fairy lights

Happy Decorating!

  2. Here comes the color!

  3. The fancy-shmancy-fallish log just speaks to me. It’s all lovely!

    I love all of them, Jemma but particularly the moss covered log. I have used a log before and I need to get it out again and use it for autumn! Thank you for the fall inspiration!

    Oh Jenna, so many lovely ideas for decorating for fall or using as a tablescape centerpiece. I see several I’ll try to recreate come September! I’ll be referencing this post often. Hope you enjoy the weekend…

    I love all of your ideas, but my favorite is to include pine cones in the groupings. The fairy lights are a close second.

    Loving your sweet leaves and Fall ideas…I haven’t even finished decorating for summer, hence the void of posts. It was so hot here all summer, not even a bit fun until now. Hoping to enjoy the porch a bit, and the produce the garden is giving us. Must admit there a lots of squash and mini pumpkins out there…maybe that will put me in a fall mood! Hugs, Sandi

    Ohmygosh – I am loving all these wonderfully creative fall decor ideas! I’m not sure I can choose a favorite because they are all so pretty, but the September pumpkins and moss-topped log are especially appealing. Love the paintings of the fall leaves and the flower-filled pumpkin too. So many ideas here. Hope you are having a wonderful end of the summer (and I’m thinking that all the pumpkins and gourds should be in the stores soon).

    • Thanks so much Kim! I always get excited when the seasons change and it’s time to redecorate! I am crazy about pumpkins, both real and faux! We usually start seeing pumpkins for sale the second week of September. Happy Decorating!
