Get creative and use anything from pumpkins to wine corks to set your setting apart.

Patterns Galore

Balance fine and fun with an interesting pattern. Experiment with a new a table cloth, linens, or placemats to complement your china. From fabulous florals to bold block prints, emphasizing a pattern is sure to elevate your setting.

A Fruitful Harvest 

Incorporate more natural elements into your decor. Fill the table with fall fruits, veggies, and foliage to create a remarkable twist on a classic cornucopia.
