19 Gorgeous Fall Centerpieces That Are So Easy to Recreate

The fiery red and gold colors of bittersweet are perfect for fall table decor. To create a simple autumn tablescape, line the middle of the table with white pumpkins in various sizes. Wrap faux bittersweet vines around each one and secure with U-pins. Place berry clusters into glass vases and top with a pillar candle to add a festive glow between the pumpkins.

For a unique fall centerpiece idea, swap your traditional vase for a more seasonal vessel. Hollow out a white pumpkin (either real or faux) and arrange a bouquet of colorful flowers inside. Add floral tubes ($8, Walmart) to stems or line the pumpkin with a plastic bag before filling with water to preserve blooms during dinner. Combine orange ranunculus and white hydrangeas with sprigs of foliage to create a beautiful fall floral arrangement.

Look to the outdoors for budget-friendly fall table decor. Gather elements like tree branches, pinecones, acorns, and leaves to adorn your Thanksgiving table.

Assemble a few items from around the house to create a simple fall centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table.

For a layered look, fold a linen napkin under the platter and tuck some natural grasses around the edge.

Use contrasting colors to make your fall table decor really pop. Vibrant shades of turquoise, for example, help set off the muted orange of heirloom pumpkins.

Place a large pumpkin in the center for the focal point, then add depth to the display by layering in apples, pears, and votive candles.

Celebrate the season with a fall centerpiece that showcases the changing colors of autumn leaves. Clip branches of leaves in an array of colors and place them into large square vases.

Pumpkins are the quintessential autumn vegetable, but other produce can work equally well for fall table decor.

Pumpkins and gourds deserve a prominent spot in your autumn front porch display, but save a few for your fall table decor, too.

A simple wood box yields a cornucopia of ideas for your fall table and beyond. Go glitzy with leaves and pumpkins spray-painted in gold and coppery tones.

This arrangement is as attractive as it is easy. Turn an old globe into a distinctive fall centerpiece for a unique spin on seasonal decor.

This fall centerpiece offers a blend of modern and rustic styles in neutral hues. Stagger white pumpkins at different heights on a trio of log slices.

Finish the look with antlers and light a few candles to illuminate your display.

This humble cornucopia takes a glamorous turn with a single mini pumpkin dressed in shining gold. To recreate this fall table decor idea, arrange pears, apples, and gourds in a cornucopia.

Use a faux pumpkin and plant it with real succulents for a centerpiece that'll last for more than just one party.
