We have selected for you 14 original ideas that will allow you to decorate a festive table in an autumn palette.
Festive table setting
Place autumn leaves and branches in a tall clear vase. Such a composition will stand for a very long time and will decorate not only a festive table, but also any open shelf in your home.
We take as a basis a pleasant range of beige and olive. We cut out the grape leaves from paper, twist the curls-cuttings from a household paper cord. Walnuts and pears are real, not fake: if the food on the table runs out, they can safely go into action.
All your guests’ attention will be focused on the original candlesticks. To create them you will need: inverted saucers, maple leaves, small decorative pumpkins and tall candles. When the evening comes, a romantic atmosphere for the holiday will be provided.
Such an ornament on a tablecloth can be embroidered for a very long time. But to lay it out from real autumn leaves is a matter of a few minutes. Lay a thick tablecloth on the table, place a beautiful pattern of leaves on it and cover your art with a transparent fabric (tulle, organza) on top.
Glass candlesticks will take on a distinct personality when wrapped in corncob leaves. Maple leaves are also suitable for the same purpose: for stability and accuracy, they will have to be cut from the bottom, but the upper edge in the notches will look very impressive.
Pine, spruce, cedar cones, as well as acorns and chestnuts can be played in different ways in serving. Let a cute pheasant, hedgehog, mushroom or woodland appear next to each plate. Invite your child to fantasize about the images – he will do it better.

Bright, rich burgundy color stimulates the appetite. Therefore, red branches of chokeberry (black mountain ash), wolf berries, viburnum and maple leaves, as well as pomegranate fruits can act as a color accent on your table. He can be echoed by red wine in transparent glasses, napkins and candles.
Children will be delighted with the fairy tale on the festive table. All kinds of paper figures of forest animals can be cut out of postcards or magazines. The atmosphere will be enhanced by nuts in vases, branches with acorns and autumn leaves.
Instead of a vase of flowers, place such a cheerful family in the center of the table. Turnip, daikon, radish, pumpkin, pear, apple, etc. – the choice is huge.
Simple glassware is the perfect field for experimentation. Guests will appreciate your imagination if you place an autumn twig or leaf under each transparent plate (by the way, you can also put rose petals, daisies or paper figures under the glass).
Decorative pumpkins, gilded with spray paint, look truly luxurious. If you tie a card with a name to such a pumpkin and put it on a plate, you can unobtrusively seat all the guests.
