Today's feature is fall tablescapes and I'm sharing this orange, white & gray number.
I thought the colour combo and these dishes added a modern look to what just may be, our Thanksgiving tablescape.
Thanksgiving is on October 9th this year (Canadian) and I'm trying out different looks for the occasion starting with this one.
I began with the gray/silver tablecloth (Walmart this year) as a backdrop and added a shiny silver runner down the center.
I created the look of faux leaf chargers and saved myself a lot of money by doing so.
I simply took a Dollar Store garland and wrapped it around underneath the charger bending and twisting it until I got the look I wanted. If you try this, get the garland with wire as it makes it easier to work with.
I didn't glue or attach anything - just formed a circle and placed it on top of this woven placemat and under the charger.
This is 1 garland as seen above.
When you place the charger on top, all you see is the faux leaf embellishment.
Easy and cheap!
I kept the centerpiece fairly simple and used repetition by placing like objects down the middle of the table.
Silver mini pumpkins sit atop white candleholders.
I placed white pumpkins on silver candleholders (turned upside down) next to those with silver votive holders in between.
Orange napkins and silver flatware sit next to each place setting.
I used these silver lids off jar candles propped against pine cones as placecard holders.
Though the colour palette was limited, a fun and festive table suitable for any fall occasion was created.

Beautiful and festive. You had such a great idea making your own leaf chargers!
ReplyDeleteI love the strong punch of orange against the grey and white. And, the silver makes it sparkle beautifully. Your faux charger effect is wonderful! :-)
ReplyDeleteEasy and cheap both work for me! That dollar store trick worked out really great! I am a big, big fan of the orange and white look for the fall season. It just really and freshens lightens it up. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour tablescapes are always so pretty! This one is just gorgeous with the traditional fall colors. I love how you made your chargers. It has been so much fun blog hopping with you. Happy fall!!!
ReplyDeleteLove how you used traditional Fall colors in your tablescape.Pam! Great job.
ReplyDeleteLori, What a clever idea to create the leaf placemat from a garland and just do the edges. Yes, those leaf placemats are expensive.
ReplyDeleteGreat tablescape.
Lori - this is so beautiful! I love the pops of gray against all the orange!
ReplyDeleteThe color gray is so underrated and I love the look here with the orange and white. The leaf chargers at Pier 1 are nice but way too expensive. Thanks for sharing your quick and easy option. Beautiful table and perfect for a Thanksgiving feast!
ReplyDeleteStunning table. I love the color combination.
ReplyDeleteLove how you made your leaf chargers! So neat!

ReplyDeleteYour fall table is beautiful. We especially love your dishes with the pop of orange inside the bowl - so very pretty! How smart to use Dollar tree garland - it looks great! So happy to tour with you! Happy Fall!
ReplyDeleteI love your table, the orange is such a great pop of color against the crisp white dishes! Your "faux" leaf chargers are brilliant! Sending Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving wishes to you, it is coming up soon!!
ReplyDeleteI love your tablescape. It feels so modern and vibrant. The bright orange and white just pop of the subdued gray and silver--just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those white dishes with the pop of orange on the inside! And great idea to use the leaf garland to embellish the chargers. Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Autumn tablescape. I love orange. The little silver pumpkins caught my eye. I'll have to look for some. Happy Monday. Enjoy Thanksgiving! I've said in the past that Canadians are lucky -- they get to celebrate Thanksgiving early.

ReplyDeleteAww this tablescape for Autumn is outstanding! Who knew silver and orange would be a marriage made in heaven?! I love it all. Those faux
Fall leaves chargers are fantastic.
Happy Thanksgiving ahead.

I am laughing right now....Know why? I literally just spent almost 40 bucks at the dollar store, buying baskets and trays to help organize my house. I walked buy that garland and thought..."not now, you've spent enough".
ReplyDeleteGuess what I am going back for now after seeing this....The garland! I love your table, the garland and those dishes too, so pretty!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
