Farmhouse Fall Tablescape in Green and White

I'm doing fall a little differently this year...in green and white! And I have made a wonderful discovery...that color combination looks great with one of my favorite finishes...galvanized metal! The colors are so soft that they don't detract from the metal. Instead, they seem to emphasize all of that wonderful patina!

First, I have set my table with my favorite burlap table runner for a soft background with lots of nubby texture and added my new favorite find...my riveted galvanized basket. Then I made another discovery...pewter pairs perfectly with it! Those are my vintage Octette candlesticks by Gorham.

At each place is a galvanized charger, a Pier 1 find, for added farmhouse charm. I've topped it with simple white plates and a sage green napkin. I love the flatware...my chunky Octette pewter. I've added fun green glassware, also a Pier 1 find from several years ago.

At each plate is a small white pumpkin sitting on a faux fall leaf. I've tied a simple Kraft paper tag with jute twine to serve as a place card.

I love the way the galvanized touches add an aged patina to the tablescape!

The tray, a local find, has a large white pumpkin in the center...

...and is filled with an assortment of pumpkins, pears and pine cones for lots of texture.

I hit my favorite farm stand with green and white in mind and was happy to find some interesting gourds to add to the mix, too.

This one has a curly stem that echoes the handle of my basket. Don't you love those rivets?

Here's a final look. I have a confession...I love this one so much that it will stay on my table until Thanksgiving since no big dinners are planned before then. My little seven-year-old grand has even commented on how much he likes it! :-) That's quite a recommendation!

And if haven't seen it, please be sure to check out my WHITE PUMPKINS AND OAK LEAVES FALL MANTEL...more green and white for fall!

Just in case you are interested in making one for yourself, here is my RUFFLED BURLAP TABLERUNNER with very detailed instructions. It's easy and inexpensive to make and has been a real work horse for me. It stays out from fall through Christmas each year.

And stay tuned! There's more fall décor to come!

Remember to pin it!
