Level up your dining room with these fall table decor ideas

As the weather cools and the leaves begin to fall, the time has come to start preparing for the big holiday family gatherings. To impress your guests this year, consider giving your dining room table a new look for that next family feast. It can make a bigger impact than you may think.

Here are four wonderful ways to decorate your dining room table for the fall season.

Harvest bowl centerpiece

According to Better Homes & Gardens, a harvest bowl centerpiece can be a wonderful conversation piece for the family to enjoy. First visit your local farmer’s market for some delightfully colorful gourds.

Next, find a centerpiece bowl that best fits the theme. Something earthy and handmade would be perfect, but the bowl can be more colorful and modern depending on the vegetables you decide to utilize.

Garlands

Garlands can really level up your dining room space, Curated Interior reported. To best utilize them, first find a centerpiece to accessorize with. For instance, pumpkins or gourds can take the center stage of your table.

Then, wrap the garland around the centerpieces and add a string of lights for extra flair. The end result is something that almost mimics fireflies around a miniature pumpkin patch.

Tiered tray

For the dinging room side table, consider adding a tiered tray. If you are in luck, your local antique shop may have a unique and homey option available for you.

Once you have your tray, it’s time to fill it. Fall-themed scented candles, gourds and dried fruit can all help tie in your dining room fall aesthetic in a powerful way. Tiered trays also provide a certain sophistication that is hard to recreate with other dining room decorations.

Runner

An earthy-toned table runner can bring texture and color to your dining room’s personality. Consider using something with natural colors that blend well with your centerpiece to create a cohesive and fall-friendly look.

For something more elegant, consider utilizing a black runner with white-colored centerpieces. Those can then be contrasted by golden candle sticks and gold cutlery for extra flair.
