Fall Entertaining

September 15, 2016

I’m so excited to have the opportunity to partner with the Real Canadian Superstore and share with you how I’m styling fall entertaining! I have to honestly tell you when I set the table for a get together I do it completely on a whim and don’t spend hours pre planning.. for me it’s fun to capture a mood, the weather, the feel of the event, may it be a casual get together, a family dinner, a wine night with friends or Thanksgiving which is quickly sneaking up on us! The Home Collection from the Real Canadian Superstore has perfectly captured the mood of the season. It’s chunkier ( think cozy sweaters ) it’s tonal in shades of white and cream and it’s textural..there couldn’t be a better match for me!

Here’s what I started with from the Home collection. It’s the PC Artisanal Collection in Oatmeal along with a beautiful wood tray perfect for charcuterie and the coolest bark rim platter ( perfect for warm apple pie! ) ..

I switched out my grapewood branch for deer sheds.. perfect for Autumn! Layered in a succulent, the gorgeous pieces above, some linens simply tied with twine, a couple of pitchers to serve water ( or sangria! ) and a few special pieces..

I love how this dining table came together! Don’t be afraid to pull items from around the house, plants, decor pieces, amazon soy candles. start with great dinnerware and add on pieces that suit the moment!

Now we all know how huge copper accents are this season and I am SO on board! The warmth and shine it adds to your space is perfect! The Home collection includes an awesome little caddy and a gorgeous tray.. I had some fun brainstorming ideas with my dear friends, their two boys and my girls thinking up some fun ways to use the caddy + use it daily!

Right now while garden clippings are still an option Ashlyn and I thought it would be fun to fill it with flowers.. a sweet little centrepiece for the table, pop it on the island for a little charm as you gather for wine or take it outside while the weather is still warm enough to enjoy alfresco dinners! Here’s what I did..

A collection of mismatched juice glasses and vases are the perfect size to tuck inside..

I started with threes and did three little vases of baby’s breath and then added some great clippings all in the same tone to keep it charming and not over styled. We want a darling little piece, not something overdone for this look! Think pansies, greens, little clips of leaves.. super simple + perfect!

Next up is one for the kids and they love their s’mores and I love this idea they came up with.. a s’more caddy to tote all the goodies out to a fire night! So sweet right?!

You can stock the caddy with craft beers when hubs is having the guys over for the game.. wings and beer are perfect with these two Home collection pieces!

We also thought for a large casual gathering like a fall bbq you can use the caddy to store your utensils! Wrap up each individuals with a napkin and twine and you’re set!

Now this PC Copper Hammered Round Tray is just dreamy and with the arrival of fall here in Calgary my first vision with it was to serve up hot chocolate or apple cider.. this tray is gorgeous and perfect for any dining experience or as a centre piece!

So excited to be entertaining and enjoying the everyday with these gorgeous pieces from the Real Canadian Superstore’s Home collection.. they are the perfect pieces to transition into fall with!
