Styling a warm and cosy autumn table

Posted by on


We asked stylist, Selina Lake, to arrange a tablescape for us which celebrates everything great about autumn - the rich, warm tones, the cheerful atmosphere and the cosiness of dining by candlelight.

The table uses our orange gingham tablecloth as a base. This is the newest colour in our gingham collection, just in time for autumn and Halloween, and lends a relaxed farmhouse feel to the look. Hanging above the table is our lovely felt autumn garland. Featuring mini pumpkins and autumn leaves, all hand-felted in Nepal.

For a little extra glow, our Dine in Colour dinner candles sit at each end of the table, and scattered throughout you'll find our LED tea lights. The latter are a great swap if the kids will be joining the table.

 

 

Also featured, both as bud vases and adorable place settings, are our new crochet flowers. In warm shades of orange and yellow, they fit the colour scheme perfectly and added a lovely cheerful element to the table. The best part is that they can be reused again and again.

Woven amongst our enamel tableware and striped wine glasses, you'll see our autumn leaf string lights. One of the most iconic signs of autumn is the shift in colour across the natural landscape, from vibrant shades of green, to warmer, mossier shades, then finally the striking shades of orange, red and copper. This was something we particularly wanted to capture in our AW25 collection. 

 

 

What we love most about Selina's autumn table is how warm and welcoming it is. It immediately invites you in to take a seat, enjoy good food and good company in a relaxed, yet special atmosphere. Little touches, like the themed napkins and hand-crafted decorations make even a simple family dinner feel festive and memorable, while giving everyone a chance to notice what's great about this particular season. 

A big thank you to Selina Lake for curating such a wonderful table for us, and to Sussie Bell for capturing it all on camera.
