As the leaves change colour and the air becomes crisp, there's no better time to cozy up your home with fall-inspired decor. Accent tables are the perfect surfaces to highlight autumn’s warmth, whether they’re by the sofa, beside your bed, or standing alone in the hallway. Here’s a guide on how to dress up your accent tables with a little seasonal charm and a lot of personality!
1. Pumpkins Galore
Nothing says fall quite like pumpkins. Choose a few mini pumpkins in classic orange, soft white, or even earthy greens to scatter on your accent table. For a more refined look, consider velvet or ceramic pumpkins. Mixing shapes and sizes will add depth and dimension while keeping the look playful.
2. Add Natural Elements
Bring the beauty of the season indoors with elements like pinecones, acorns, or even dried leaves. Arranging these in a small bowl or alongside your pumpkins will add a touch of nature. A sturdy table like Koda can easily hold a larger vase filled with autumn branches, bringing an outdoor vibe inside.
3. Introduce Seasonal Scents
Scented candles are a must for any fall decor. Choose autumn-inspired scents like apple cider, cinnamon spice, or pumpkin pie to bring in the aroma of the season. Not only do they smell amazing, but they also cast a warm, inviting glow. Try a candle in a glass jar to complement a sleek table like Calin or add an antique candleholder for a vintage feel.
4. Balance Heights with Books or candle sticks
Layering your items at varying heights adds visual interest and depth to your setup. Stack a few vintage books or candle sticks to elevate smaller decor items. Using books in warm colours (think burgundy, mustard yellow, or brown) will tie in perfectly with the fall theme.
5. Add a Touch of Metallics
Adding metallic accents like brass, copper, or gold can elevate your table from rustic to refined. Whether it’s a small lantern, a metallic pumpkin, or a decorative dish, these accents catch the light and add a bit of sparkle. They also pair beautifully with wood tables or tables in classic finishes.
6. Finish with a Touch of Personal Flair
Finally, add a personal touch that reflects you. Maybe it’s a small framed quote about gratitude, a picture of a past fall adventure, or a small souvenir. The fall season is about warmth, comfort, and memories, so add those final pieces that make the space feel like home.
With just a few seasonal touches, your accent table can become a focal point of fall warmth and charm. Get creative, mix textures and tones, and have fun experimenting with different arrangements. Decorating is all about expressing yourself and bringing in the spirit of the season, one accent table at a time!
Happy decorating!
