Is anyone else counting down to Fall like me?? Fall has always been my favorite season, I love the cooler weather, the clothes, the home decor for fall, and let's not forget the fact that all the spring and summer bugs go away. It's wonderful!
I've already started my Fall fashion shopping and now I'm preparing my house for Fall. I have finished my coffee table and I have the easy how to guide that I want to share! You can create a great Fall coffee table set up by keeping these three things in mind:
1.Texture Combinations
2. Nature Elements
3. Varying Heights
TEXTURE COMBINATIONS
I love to combine glass, wood, metallic, and whatever other texture I can find. By layering different textures you give your coffee table so much interest. Having everything just wood or just glass can be quite boring frankly. So jazz it up a bit with some texture combinations.
I placed this wooden bowl here to collect remotes, or other small things that need to be easily accessed. It fits perfectly on my coffee table.
The tray I am using here is actually a piece of wall art that I made a few years ago. I searched high and low for the perfect tray and then one day sat this down and it just worked. I love re-purposing items and using items for their unintended uses. So keep in mind if you ever need a tray, try out a picture frame.
This is another way that I have included texture. The silver pops very well with the wood.
NATURE ELEMENTS
Regardless of the season, I believe you always need nature on the table. In the Spring or Summer I like to have flowers. For the Fall and Winter I like to have branches. You can either purchase faux branches or scavenge the yard for some. You can also include other outside items such as pine cones or berries.
These are some faux branches that I had lying around the house. I broke them into smaller pieces and placed them into a vase on the coffee table. Add a piece like this to your coffee table to incorporate the nature elements.
VARYING HEIGHTS
Varying heights adds a lot of interest. You can use any grouping of items. I like to group my items in odd numbers. You can use candles, accent pieces, decorative balls, or anything that you would like.
I usually use candles for varying heights.. There something about a warm relaxing fragrances that makes me think of Fall. You can easily incorporate fragrances with American Home™ by Yankee Candle® Brand. These candles can be found at Walmart in the Home and Candle section.
My favorite scents are Sweet & Salty Caramel, Buttercream Frosting, Banana Walnut Bread. The fragrances are wonderful, it fills the room but is not overpowering. The perfect blend.
I tend to burn more candle during the Fall and Winter, so I am always sure to read the instructions very carefully, to prevent any kind of incidents and I never use them in my daughter's room. So please make sure you do the same, especially if you have kids.
So now you have my guide to styling your coffee table! From texture combinations, nature elements, to varying heights with American Home™ by Yankee Candle® Brand. Please share me me which of these tips will you be incorporating for your coffee table? Will you use them all?
