Gingerly stepping into late fall…. there is a crispness in the air… and it is permanent for the foreseeable future. It’s the calling card of the rapidly approaching holiday season, and if you’re anything like me, that golden crispness ushers in daydreams of tables set for gathering with all our loved ones. I couldn’t resist the pull of daydreaming, fantasizing - and swooning - over imaginings of silver trays adorned with autumn produce. Earthy linens with their counterpoint companion: elegantly embroidered napkins, detailed glassware for holiday cheers. And to top it all off, a choice floral arrangement meant to determine the cohesion of the table.

These things are all together lovely on their own, but adding in fellowship with our loved ones & a thankful spirit, it is sure to be a holiday gathering bursting at the seams with love and gratitude.

Autumn ushers in so many different ways to set the scene for the season…literally. Below you will find selections for an earthy Autumn scape. Textured linens, quality silverware, and sturdy dishes are signifiers of a well curated, and elegant table. Now, if only someone could do the Thanksgiving cooking!

DECK THE TABLE

Not hosting this year? Why not consider a gift for the hostess? From shopping, cooking, and preparing the house for gathering, the hostess accomplishes it all for her guests. Let any of these meaningful trifles be your token of gratitude for all that she’s done this Thanksgiving.
