The Centerpiece

When it comes to fall decorating (well really all seasonal decorating) I like subtle things that evoke the feeling rather than Jack-O-Lanterns, witches, and black cats. Don't get me wrong I thing there are a lot of seasonal decorations that are really cute - there just not me. Here are a few ideas for subtle centerpieces.




A bowl of fall fruit or gourds







Fall leaves or flowers in a simple vase



A few cute little pumpkins on a tray. I love these white pumpkins.



An interesting plant or seed pods.

  2. Subtle is good. I like the table decoration in the third picture. White pumpkins is a great change from orange ones :)

  4. I totally agree, a hint of the season is just enough. We do have eclectic tastes indeed. I notice that your decor selection has a strong Japanese influence in the subtle flowers and bamboo tables. It is a calming look.
