The Fall Harvest Tablescpe for Thanksgiving

The Fall season is a busy season.  A time to bring in the harvest and prepare for a long winter and the approaching Thanksgiving holiday.  The goods from the garden or from the farmer's markets are processed and frozen, such as sweet corn, cauliflower, broccoli, beans, peas, tomatoes, zucchini and apples and aronia.  Acorn squash is gathered and stored and is used throughout the winter season.  It is truly a time to give thanks for the abundance of garden goods that God has provided.  

In celebration of such a special season, The Little Yellow Corner Store has created a tablescape, The Fall Harvest Tablescape for Thanksgiving.  As inspiration pieces, we used both placemats which contain Fall's bounty and a leaf shaped bowl which is filled with tart, green apples from the orchid as a simple centerpiece for a quiet Thanksgiving this year.

The Little Yellow Corner Store is happy to join Rita from Panoply and many other great designers for this month's Thanksgiving Blog Hop beginning Tuesday, November 3, 2026.  Each of the artists included their links at the end of this article so that you can leisurely view each blog with an abundance of holiday ideas.  What could be more satisfying than to warm a cup of apple cider and cozy up in your comfortable chair to view some of the most fabulous Thanksgiving tables.  

So lets start here with The Fall Harvest Tablescape from The Little Yellow Corner Store to kick off the celebration of the holiday. 




A cream colored tablecloth provides the base to the other earth toned pieces.





And the simple leaf shaped bowl filled with fresh apples sets the primary choice of complementary colors -- green, cream and brown.  




So it is natural to use the beautiful avocado green Indiana glass stemware and the sage green flatware.





A combination of the cream pine cone embossed dinner plate and a brown Hull drip edge salad plate adds an organic element to the tablescape.













More green details are added to the tablescape, such as in the green velvet pumpkin and the green rosemary sprig candle rings surrounding the taupe candles in brown glass candlestick holders.








A pop of color is added in the copper colored pumpkin napking rings.  














What could be any better as part of a Thanksgiving lunch or dinner than a fresh, crisp Fall salad which includes, lettuce, grapes, apples, blueberries, sweet onions red pepper, dried cranberries, chopped pecans and dried red pepper chips with a drizzle of raspberry vinaigrette dressing.  Tart, sweet and with plenty of flavors and served on a sage green, leaf-shaped salad plate.  











Plenty of color, crunch and flavor.  A salad that is pretty as it is delicious.




Now it is time to enjoy the work of all of the other talented designers.
