Festive Fall Vignettes (Ideas for Your Console Table)
Well, I finally faced the fact that summer is over so I started pulling out my fall decor. Usually, I like to start out slow and ease into the new season. Today, I’ll show you how I decorated my console table with some festive fall vignettes…

Fall Vignettes on the Console Table:
Sometimes, just starting with one area will inspire you to decorate more.
Although, I am still working on the family room, I managed to decorate this little spot for now while I make other big decisions (like which rug to buy)…
Although, I like using neutrals in my seasonal decor, I always end up throwing in a little orange for fall!
The orange velvet pumpkin was the only new thing I bought this year. I found it at TJMaxx if you are looking for them.
Even a few easy changes can update a room for a new season.
On my shelf, I simply swapped out the summer colored cookbooks for a stack of fall colored ones. This helped to tie them in with the orange velvet pumpkin.
Trays make things easy…
Using trays help to group the accessories together and it’s one of my favorite classic fall decorating ideas. This seagrass one has made its rounds in practically every room. The texture makes it perfect for a fall vignette.
For a pulled together look, it helps to repeat the same colors…
The stack of white bowls carry the white down to the lower shelf to keep things bright.
Most of us agree, you can’t go wrong with pretty storage baskets…
A row of seagrass baskets on the bottom coordinate with the tray. As you can probably see, these also hold my napkin collection.
For another version of this console table, see how I decorated it for my more recent fall home tour!
Open Concept Kitchen and Family Room:
From this angle, you can see into the kitchen.
As you can see, I haven’t added too much in there yet.
Sometimes, keeping it simple is better.
I just added a few things to the stove mantel – a couple velvet pumpkins to match the one on the console along with some more bundles of wheat.
Last year, I used real white pumpkins but I kind of like the pop of orange up there with these. Although, once I find some white pumpkins, I might end up changing this area again. We’ll see…
So the fall decorating has begun! Remember, autumn officially starts this Friday!
What are you decorating this fall season?
Here are some sources to help you shop your fall vignettes…
- Velvet Pumpkins – TJMaxx but I also found this set of four velvet pumpkins.
- Faux White Pumpkin – Michael’s. If they’re sold out, check out this set of white pumpkins and gourds.
- Seagrass Tray – Homegoods or this set of seagrass nesting trays
- White Pitchers – Homegoods usually has a supply but this porcelain one is cute too.
- Wheat Bundles – Homegoods but if they sold out, you could go with these wheat stalks or this wheat bundle.
- Seagrass bins – Pottery Barn but these seagrass bins are similar (price is better!) These cute ones fold for easy storage.
- Lanterns – Pottery Barn or Pier One (I forgot which one!) These pretty lanterns are very similar.

Shelley.. will you come and decorate my house?? It looks so pretty!! I'm in hurricane mode. Jose is on the way����♀️����
Thank you but you don't need me…you do a beautiful job on your own! Stay safe!
Looks fantastic Shelley. I am more a neutral person, but do love a pop of muted orange this time of year. I started decorating, but then we hosted family escaping hurricane Irma. Need to regroup and finish.
I love what you did on your console table!! It's all very pretty. 🙂
I change out cookbooks on top of my cookbook shelf for the seasons too, the warmer color covers of the comfort food books come out in the fall – casseroles, pot pies, and the like. I still am envious of your gorgeous kitchen.
I love your touches of fall!
You are most certainly ready for Fall!! Email me so we can get together for lunch or coffee since the Summer got away from us!!
Your fall vignette looks just beautiful. I love the pop of orange. I am going to have to go check out TJ Maxx and see if they have any of those velvet pumpkins. I hope that you have a wonderful day!!!
Shelley, the console table looks Fall ready…the pop of orange brings my eye in to discover every detail! Happy autumn to you!
So pretty. Of course I love your gorgeous kitchen in the background too.
I adore trays and baskets! You've created some beautiful fall displays!Brenda
Very creative touches of fall! Thanks for all the shopping sources.
The console table looks looks so lovely, Shelley! I really like the pop of orange with the pumpkin, and how cute that you coordinated the cookbooks! I just finished decorating my porch this morning, and everything inside is finished…having to fake the whole season means I get to start that fabrication whenever I want! At least we are finally under 100 degrees!
I love how you decorated, especially the console table. Everything is so fall festive.
Those velvet orange pumpkins are fantastic and you've displayed them wonderfully! Your fall decor "so far" is perfect and if you leave it at that, I'd say it's terrific in its simplicity. Have a great weekend!
It all looks wonderful Shelley! I really like the pop of orange. Velvet pumpkins are the dreamiest! I like how your table has tiers. I have a tall table behind my sectional. Would love the extra shelving. Mine is just a single one. Thanks for sharing with SYC.hugs,Jann
Love those velvet pumpkins, Shelley! You've created such a pretty fall vignette.
