Fall Tabletop Trends
Mix and match the latest ideas of the season.
At the start of each season, stores become busy creating attractive displays that reflect the trends of each season. Like in fashion, certain colors, prints and textures become popular in tabletop accessories. Incorporate an element or two of these fall trends to your tabletop for a fresh new look.
A Time for Nesting
Fall is a time for nesting and so it makes perfect sense that our feathered friends have become a fall trend. Graphic bird prints, along with delicate branches and nests, are popping up everywhere this season.
Birds of a Feather
A beautiful teapot is an elegant addition to any brunch or luncheon. Jason Miller has designed a line of plates, teacups and teapots that incorporate birds in an unconventional way. Miller intentionally applies birds "incorrectly" by mixing patterns with bird decals reflecting this fall trend in a nontraditional way.
Unique Salt & Pepper Shakers
Bring the table to life with accessories shaped like birds, like these salt and pepper shakers by Jonathan Adler. Because of their discreet silhouette they'll blend well into any tabletop.
