One of my favorite ways to decorate for autumn is to use foraged natural elements. Things like grasses, branches and leaves and dried flowers are perfect for bringing a touch of nature indoors and create that cozy autumn feeling we all love.
I created this foraged arrangement for Inspired Gatherings by doing one simple thing- just wandering outside to see what inspired me.
I found simple bits like oak leaves, golden grasses and dried flowers from the garden. I added some dried wheat & millet, craspedia and burgundy leaves & also a bit of what I had in an arrangement in the house- white roses and eucalyptus.
On the Table in Inspired Gatherings
I placed the arrangement on the table in a copper pot and scattered a bit of fruit to create a centerpiece. It was such a fun gathered goodness autumn centerpiece for the table.
And when I was done with the photos- I brought it indoors and placed in on the mantel for a touch of autumn indoors.
On the mantel
A few princess pumpkins along with pears and figs scattered on the mantel created a simple mantel styling.
I love the little golden pop of yellow that the craspedia brings.
Simple and sweet and such an easy way to decorate for autumn inexpensively and by using all that natural beauty that nature provides.

I am looking for Hammered copper accessories for my home. I bought a large bowl from Pier 1 and now they are out of business and the copper items were gone before I got to the sale! Any help or website would be greatly appreciated. I’m using them about my cabints in my butlers pantry.
Thanks!

courtney, I love your table outside. Do you leave it out there all the time or do you move it out there when you want to use it?
Courtney says
This small one stays out most of the year- but comes inside during the rainy winter season. The large one in the front stays out all year long.
