Since we spend so much time at home, I wanted our fall tablescape to be something that makes us smile whenever we walk by it. I wanted our fall table decor to be bright & cheery in the day & date-night dreamy at night. Besides those objectives, I also had another challenge. I wanted to use as many real pieces as possible. I don’t particularly like storing items year to year, and also, my husband cannot stand fake décor. I’m talking he truly hates it. Sometimes faux decor is best, in my opinion, but I wanted him to love our fall table décor as much as I did, so I aimed for as much real as possible. Here’s what I used to create our fall table décor:
Real Fall Decor
- Pumpkins⠀
- Squash⠀
- Pinecones⠀
- Succulents⠀
- Candles (tapered & tea light)
- Sunflowers⠀
- Eucalyptus ⠀
- Greens⠀
Artificial Fall Decor
- Mini pumpkins
Table Decorating Steps
- Clean the table
- Layout the placemats
- Trim the flowers and greens
- Remove the stickers from the produce
- Burn the candles a little bit to get the waxy melting along the sides
- Arrange the flowers
- Remove the succulents from the original container and place into my containers
- Add the artificial pumpkins in the succulents as well as along the table decor
The Final Reveal
I love the way our fall table decor turned out! The greens, oranges, and yellows add so much joy to our dining room during the daytime! I like a more decadent green feature, so that’s why there’s so much green here. The eucalyptus smells heavenly too! At night, we are ready for a glass of wine and date night once we light all of these candles. The nighttime scene is cozy, romantic, and dreamy. I am also happy to report that my picky husband loves it! I know it’s not yet officially fall, but it sure does feel like it in our home!

Hey — I wrote a book about all of this.
Living Open-Handed is the devotional I wrote during a season when I really needed to hear these words myself. If you're in a place where you need to be encouraged by scripture and softened by grace, it might be for you too.
