the best lemon tablescapes

 

Our largest lemon tree is still so full of lemons right now, that it's such a pleasure to use them every day for cooking and to flavor our water and teas.

In addition to that, when life gives you so many amazing lemons, it's also fun to fill lots of pretty bowls and sprinkle those citrus filled bowls to different rooms around the house. 

Of course using them for a table setting is also a wonderful idea that is always a fresh look that can't be beat. 

I love the effortless pop of color and lovely scent it brings to each and every table setting. Here are a few of my favorite examples. 

 

Easy as lemon meringue pie, a table runner and matching lemon place mats instantly add loads of charm to your dining space, indoors or out! A frilly cake stand filled to brim with lemons makes a bold statement.

 

I can’t help feeling a sense of happiness looking at these new lemon pattern table linens from Pacific and Rose. 

They're so easy to accessorize too, just add a few fresh lemons and pretty flowers and the look is complete!

When life gives you lemons, we must remember to enjoy them in every way possible! 

Note the unique quality of all these lemon patterned table linens and accessories that are hand block-printed by artisans at the fair-trade workshop in Jaipur, India. 

This timeless pattern plays off the real lemons in my home so well.

The Snowball Viburnum flowers are from my cottage garden, and easily arranged in a vintage white ironstone pitcher. 

I love how they look with the soft green tones of the pretty Lemon Tablecloth and Napkins. 

It's so fun to decorate and "play house" with these beautiful new gifted treasures! First up is this beautiful new "Garden Yellow" tablecloth and napkins from August Table.

The texture of this soft linen and cotton blend is amazing and I also love the little lace-like inset on the tablecloth.... Can you spot it?

 

It's perfectly acceptable to mix the faux with the real, and in this case, both types of lemons are a hit!

And from Antique Farmhouse, check out this gorgeous faux lemon and eucalyptus wreath. 

It's so realistic that it's hard to distinguish the real lemons on the table from the faux variety! 

Also new this week is the Distressed Metal Urn, also from Antique Farmhouse. It's got the perfect patina for any situation!!.

 

Weekend vibes here at home in the breakfast room.

 

One of my favorite tablecloths is this one called “Monet’s Kitchen” from Pacific and Rose. 

Inspired by the Provencal color palette of Claude Monet’s Kitchen in Giverny. Of course fresh lemons and a few limes are the perfect accents for this pattern. 

Who wouldn't want to wake up to a sunny, fresh table like this for breakfast?!

 

This pretty pattern is block-printed by hand in lovely shades of blue, green and yellow.

 

I love how perfectly it blends with my citrusy centerpieces.

 

It's so perfect for giving your home a weekend vibe all week long!

 

Life. Lemons. Lemonade. You know the drill... 

But making the best of something also includes a little indulgence, like this gorgeous new Lemon Glass Pitcher from Vagabond House I absolutely fell in love with.

 

So, when you're making your lemons into lemonade, remember to treat yourself to something special, because after all, YOU are worth it!!

The beautiful Capri Lemon placemats and table runner are available from Elrene. 

 

 

 

In case you haven’t heard, I started a new Instagram page in October and named it Claudia Fabiana Home. My former page is still up, but after getting a new phone, I was no longer able to log into this account, so the new profile was born!

 

I hope you’ll follow along with me on Instagram for all the latest projects and décor I will be sharing in 2025.

try fruit for table decor

 

Let’s talk about pretty edible fall décor… easy, beautiful and yummy. Let’s start with pears!! 🍐

At the center of the table, we have PEARS instead of flowers! 🍐This always makes for a fun and easy centerpiece, and don't be afraid to use faux pears, if you prefer! A few eucalyptus leaves soften the edges of the platter.

When I was a little girl, my cousins had two pear trees in their yard. Every fall, I’ll never forget all of us climbing on the roof of their garage to pick the biggest and juiciest pears in the world! 

🍐 That memory holds a dear place in my heart!

(Buffalo Check linen tablecloth available here)

 

Apples, lemons, artichokes and of course pumpkins make the prettiest living props that are also quite practical, because they can be eaten, so nothing goes to waste!

In this post, you’ll also spot a lovely Pear Cheese Tray and matching pewter Pear Salt & Pepper Shakers from Vagabond House.... 

... and a delicious homemade apple and pear cider that was a recipe I made for Country Sampler Farmhouse Style.

 

Ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg liven up the flavors of the pears and apples is this yummy cider!

So, friends tell me what your favorite edible prop or decor detail you love to use the most during autumn…

the most beautiful fall home accessories

One of my favorite things about Arthur Court Designs is that the inspiration for their pieces comes straight from nature,

 

and they’re designed to land directly on your table!

 

No other season lends itself more to the beauty of nature than Autumn,

 

 wouldn’t you agree?

 

Here’s a little look at today’s Autumn table from the breakfast room…

new fall finds inspired by nature

Cozy mornings just got even better!

Strike a match and let the glowing candlelight bring out the earthiness of the season.

I’m in love with the soft glow of this rustic Antler Candlestick from Arthur Court creates in my living room. 

“Graceful prongs curve away from the main branches of the antlers, with each joining supporting a small candle holder, ideally sized for taper candles.”

 

"Handcrafted in Arthur Court's signature aluminum, this design features antlers emerging up from a circular base as they balance on their burr. 

Multiple forks branch off the main stem, while the candle holders take the place of other points with realistic definition."

 

With a touch of whimsy and a deep passion for nature, Arthur Court’s creations are timeless additions to any home.

 

This is one treasured piece that will look great all autumn and winter in my living room! It would even be a spectacular focal point for a holiday table (that will be coming up in a future blog post) or even a pretty alfresco table.

I also love this beautiful glass Elk Canister that you can just spy in the background. It’s perfect for holding special little treats and generally just looking pretty!

  

So for this month, we’re enjoying the soft glowing candlelight in the living room, surrounded by some of our favorite things.
