The fall tablescape of my dreams
I absolutely loved how our Friendsgiving table turned out to host ten of our closest friends. I leaned into print, with this Julia Berolzheimer x Pottery Barn dinnerware collaboration and florals by local Buffalo floral designer The Plot, to match. With my brushed gold chandelier hanging overhead, it made sense to accent with gold flatware and candlesticks. See more timeless and cozy Friendsgiving ideas below along with similar items to shop!
Fall Floral Napkins
The floral spirit of a harvest garden party comes to life in this paisley-meets-batik printed napkin. Chrysanthemum colors (think butterscotch and berry) transition well, taking your table from season to season.
Rattan Placemats
I truly love these meticulously handcrafted and woven placemats. They add the perfect amount of texture while providing protection to your table with heat resistance and non-slip.
Classic Cocktail Coupes
This is some of my favorite classic glassware, perfect for anything from espresso martinis to signature cocktails. I especially love that it comes beautifully packaged for easy gifting.
A velvet pant and blazer set was the perfect amount of dressed-up for a small gathering at home.
Friendsgiving ideas for the perfect dinner party
- Don’t shy away from print, texture, and layering. Fall is all about abundance, so lean into it by pairing beautiful fall florals with your favorite prints and patterns.
- Include a couple of statement pieces, like these incredible vintage parrot candlesticks (you can find them here or search for similar designs on Etsy).
- Bring the outdoors in with foliage-forward floral designs. You can incorporate dried stems too for added texture and interest.
- Dine by candlelight! It sets the tone for a cozy evening inside and the soft lighting illuminates your table design.
