Every fall, we rush to unpack our seasonal decorations and add a festive touch to our spaces. Trays, ornaments, and fall-themed pieces are often scattered across coffee tables and dining tables.

However, according to House Digest, many of these classic items can end up becoming true decorating blunders, making the table look visually cluttered and less sophisticated.
Avoid overcrowding your table
Trays full of stacked decorations can make a small table look cramped and messy. In addition, overly busy patterns on fall décor pieces can leave the space looking cheap. House Digest’s tip is to keep it simple: fall foliage in a unique vase creates impact without overwhelming the table. For larger tables, simple placemats and a handcrafted centerpiece are enough to add a festive touch without losing elegance.
How to decorate a fall table without clutter
Instead of using overloaded trays, House Digest recommends creating a single focal point. A vase with fall foliage, such as artificial eucalyptus stems from CEWOR or Leetous, adds color and texture in a subtle way. If you prefer a more handmade look, cardboard boxes can be transformed into DIY vases for a personalized touch.
If you opt for trays, choose smaller models and limit the decoration to a single fall piece. For large dining tables, replace everyday items with themed alternatives, such as KEVA placemats, and finish with a DIY centerpiece. This way, you’ll have a beautifully decorated fall table while keeping the space organized and sophisticated.
