Get creative with pumpkins

Blue and white chinoiserie is an unexpected juxtaposition to the bright orange pumpkins of the season.

Pumpkins just may be the darling of the season, so incorporating them into your tabletop decor may seem a bit too on the nose for some, but we believe that with the right pairings they can leave your tabletop feeling full of whimsy and warmth.

For this look we wanted to highlight the juxtaposition of the bright orange with the classic blue and white chinoiserie for a chic and preppy feel. Gold accents tie in the colors of the season and present as the perfect partners for this palette, highlighting its warmth with a glow that silver just couldn’t have accomplished.

Dainty orange pumpkins are piled high at each place setting and mirror the orange tones found in the beautifully detailed dinner plates. White pumpkins are peppered throughout the table, adding depth to the design without taking away from the fiery autumnal centerpiece that resides at the heart of the table. White pumpkin-shaped soup tureens are the perfect unexpected complement that are sure to bring joy to your guests.
