Table decor for an autumn afternoon meal

At the table, she chose to use a combination of intense and varied colours typical of autumn: dark purple, deep green, and touches of brown, based also on the sweet to taste, a cake made with seasonal fruits and decorated with figs and blackberries. This palette added a delicious contrast that looked as good as it tasted. To taste it nothing better than my handcrafted crockery Palma, which stands out for its details in striking colours. An excellent way to add colour without overloading the set. Its vibrant tone prints will certainly add joy to the scene. 

If there is something in what Lupe and I agree, it is to pay attention to the details. For this snack, we decided to use cotton napkins in purple tones, as they blend perfectly with the landscape and provide a delicate touch. Drinking glasses were also part of the decoration, along with household textiles. Its transparent finish highlighted the rest of the pieces, reflecting the light of the evening fall. 

If the weather is not so good, you can take nature indoors, including its most organic look: 

• Choose a colour palette that matches the environment and the season: purple, green, brown and natural tones such as beige or white are always a success. 

• Add natural elements; seasonal fruits such as figs, blackberries and grapes, which are delicious and can serve also as decoration. You can also place some green leaves or dries branches to give it a rustic style. 

• Use noble materials: wood, ceramic, linen... because they add texture and warmth. For example, you can combine the cotton textiles with placemats made of natural fibers. 

• Select outstanding crockery: a design with colourful details, like the one we are using here, or with unique shapes that can become the focal point of the table. 

• Do not forget to include your personal touch: a glass vase that matches the tablecloth or the antique wooden board to serve the cake. Maybe they are simple tableware items, but they make a difference. 

Without a doubt, autumn is the perfect season to appreciate the small pleasures: a meal outdoors, a meeting with friends or simply the pleasure of being surrounded by the beauty of this season itself. The table decoration not only embellishes your space, but also invites you to enjoy more, if possible, your home. 

You don’t need a special occasion to create something beautiful; sometimes, a simple autumn day is reason enough for celebration, don’t you think?
