- Victoria Van Vlear

AS THE WEATHER COOLS DOWN, take time to enjoy the coziness of your home and invite others to enjoy its serenity as well. To get your dinner table ready for entertaining, look to the outdoors for inspiration. This beautiful fall tables cape is from Vibeke of Vibeke Designs, who uses the landscape to dictate her décor.

“I find a lot of inspiration in nature, and leaves are a color experience in themselves,” she says. Whether you’re looking to host a few girlfriends for lunch, a double date for dinner or to create a tables cape that will last through Thanksgiving, here are 10 simple ways to make your dining table shine this season.

1. WHITE PUMPKINS. Country cottage style is rustic with a romantic touch. While orange pumpkins are traditional, mix things up by using white Lumina pumpkins instead. They’ll help provide a neutral background to your table while still giving off fall vibes. Use a variety of sizes to make your table look layered and full.
