Inspiration

My mom had this small vintage crock that I remember loving even as a child. She gifted it to me several months ago and I was over the moon. A few weeks later while organizing my father-in-law’s garage I came across the larger crock. Now my mom’s crock has a big brother! Immediately I knew I wanted to use them as a jumping off for a Fall table. Starting with those vintage crocks I gathered other elements to pull together a simple early Fall look.

Greenery

My next decision was what to fill those pretty crocks with. Flowers would always work, but I wanted to try something a little different. Part of our live oak was growing into the fence on the side of the house and needed to be trimmed back so I brought in some of those clippings. I also had these teeny tiny faint purple flowers that had dried out a long time ago. I have no clue what they are called, but I liked the dried look for Fall. The nice thing about these two options is that they will last far longer than fresh flowers.

I’m going to consider the apples greenery as well. I wanted to add a little more color to the table and I had some Granny Smith apples on hand. They really were the perfect touch by adding more life and color to the table, and also nodded to Fall as I always think of apple pies and cobblers at this time of the year. Touches like this reinforce the casual early Fall tablescape look as opposed to pumpkins which are more associate with late Fall or Thanksgiving looks.

Table linens

I purchased this smaller block printed tablecloth from McGee & Co. early in the year. Unfortunately it’s no longer available, but I’ve linked to similar options at the end of the post. It’s a perfect size for our smaller round table in the kitchen, but too small to completely cover our dining table. The tones and print are perfect so I wanted to make it work for this table. By draping a smaller tablecloth at an angle you get the benefit of the added texture and it gives the table a relaxed casual feel.

The napkins have a pretty fringe detail along the edge also makes things feel more relaxed. I only have four of those fringe napkins so I added them to the side settings and did different napkins with a similar feel at the head chairs. This is a great way to get by when you don’t have a large enough set of napkins.

Dinnerware

You can never go wrong with classic white plates. They will serve you well for years, they go with everything, and are a great base to layer upon for a mix and match look. You can easily switch up your look by adding a fun salad plate or bowl without having to invest in full up completely matching sets. For this look I added these imperfect glazed bowls to my everyday white plates. The handmade look is beautiful, and at $4.99 a piece they’re a great price.
