Fall-Inspired Table Settings with Forest Walk

Bring the fun of the outdoors in autumn to your table

As summer transitions into fall, the days become shorter and sweater weather arrives, our thoughts turn to spending more time indoors, feathering our nest, relaxing or entertaining. With Thanksgiving on the horizon, we share an autumnal-inspired table set with Forest Walk, a new collection from Juliska that is an ode to the earth’s natural beauty with finely detailed textures and colors — rendered in a scattering of twigs, acorns, leaves, windswept feathers and other nods to Mother Nature.

While the turkey and fresh vegetables may be the main act, the table setting plays an important supporting role, decorated with layers of texture, neutral tones, seasonal fruits and snippets of greenery that feel down to earth, warm and welcoming.
