With the kids back in school, football in full swing, and slightly cooler temps this week, I finally decided to work on my fall decor. I played around with my dining table center piece for awhile adding and changing it around, but then ended up going with this very simple arrangement.
We had an extra plank of reclaimed wood left over from our dining room table project, which set the theme for my fall table. I love how distressed it is with all the old nail holes, etc. When we where picking out the lumber for our dining table, we tried to look for pieces that had lots of character. My husband cut it to fit the center of my table and I used it as my center runner. I added a burlap table runner under the plank and then added this rustic wire basket with a burlap liner to continue my rustic fall theme. Megan @ Honey We're Home inspired me with her beautiful fall tablescape using this same basket filled with pumpkins and apples. I decided for my basket I would add a few leaves that my daughter collected from outside, and then finished it off with the orange "happy fall" tag.
So that's my simple early fall table decor. I'm looking forward to adding to it later on for Thanksgiving. Have you started decorating for fall yet?
You did a great job. I can't wait to start fall decorating. Did you post about your table project?

Very pretty...I just love the wood plank on the table runner...very well done!
Hello from The TT Diaries your newest follower from the blog hop. This table setting is gorgeous. I am not very good at decorating so my house pretty much looks the same all year except for Christmas I try to go all out.
Hi! New follower from the blog hop! Love the table setting :) I definitely have not started decorating for fall yet... soon though!
Cute Fall Tablescape! Love the basket and Fall tag!
What a pretty centerpiece. I especially like the little tag you added to the basket and the burlap lining. I love using old wood planks on my tablerunner too. I used one at Christmas and it adds just the right touch of 'rustic' to all the fancy glass and ornaments.
Simple is often the best way to decorate!! It all looks lovely.
Hi! I found your blog on the Naptime Review Hop. I love this idea with the basket. My sons and I just went on a "treasure hunt" through the woods last weekend and we collected some really great pine cones. I think I will add them to my own basket and they will be so happy that I used their treasures! Thanks for the idea!
I love your runner! I bought the same basket and have been playing around with it for my table. I really like how you filled it!
I love your happy tablescape!

This is very very cute.
Great idea! Love that look. I am featuring this at Somedaycrafts.blogspot.com on Monday evening.
I love looking at tablescapes (I'm not very creative in that department, so I live vicariously through others :). Yours is so simple, but so beautiful! I don't think I've ever seen one like this with the wood down the center, and I love how it turned out!
Sweet tablescape! Thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas at our linky party at http://www.finecraftguild.com/ & We love seeing you back there this week with another project!!

How pretty! I love your fall table, it looks so cosy and elegant!
That is a really cool idea! Love how warm and lovely it looks for fall decor! And for Christmas it will be awesome with some greenery tucked around it!
I love reclaimed wood and it is perfect for your fall decor! So simple and beautiful! Thanks so much for coming out to the party at Clean and Scentsible. I'll be featuring this on Sunday and pinned it. I've really enjoyed touring around your blog - following along now!
This is simply beautiful! Thanks for linking up with us! Can't wait to see more of your blog...I'm a new follower!!
Love this! Thanks for the inspiration about using the reclaimed wood. My dad just told me today that he has some on the farm and I would love to use it for just this purpose. The addition of the yardstick is perfect!
How beautiful! Love the way you've used the reclaimed wood. Your tablescape is simply stunning. Thanks so much for sharing it!
I love this reclaimed wood table runner! I saw something kind of like it a few months ago, and then promptly forgot about it-- so happy to be re-inspired. I really love the way you've styled it with the basket.
