The second layer is your table centerpiece. So I added my blush pink ruffle table runner on top of the tablecloth. I was planning on just using a tablecloth, but as I was placing items on the table I felt it needed one more layer. I wanted a big pop of pattern and color for this tablescape so I chose a pink buffalo check tablecloth. That’s okay too! Your actual table can be your base layer. Maybe you love the look of the table and don’t want to cover it up with a tablecloth or table runner. This could be a tablecloth, a table runner, or both.

I’m a visual person and I like to see pictures of home decor inspiration so I can then visualize how I want to decorate. If you like a french cottage look, search cottage magazines on Instagram or pickup a magazine at the store. If you aren’t sure what colors you want to use, search for ideas online or in magazines! Do you like neutral colors? Grab your computer and type in “neutral fall table” on Pinterest. I can pick and choose pieces that I think will work, and then purchase what I still need. I like to bring down all the Fall decor I have from the attic to see what I already have. Next, you want to decide on your color scheme. Remove all the decor off the table so you can have a blank slate to work with. Pick Your Color Schemeįirst step when decorating your table is to start with a blank canvas.
