Glory in Autumn

GLIMPSE OF MAJESTY

As verdure is replaced by shades of crimson, amber, and gold, venture outside for a front-row view of the painterly scenes unfurling all around. Whether you drive through the mountains or stroll through a park, witnessing the leaves in their yearly transformation remains an exhilarating affair. Play up the excitement by hosting companions for a meal amid the splendor. Dress a rustic table with mismatched linens and trappings styled after forest finds, including timber-motif flatware and place mats that emulate entwined branches. Hammered copper mugs and vintage brass vessels reflect rays of sunshine washing over the setup. A few willowy arrangements of maroon flowers and berry-laden twigs complement the woodsy locale, while foraged treasures like pine cones and acorns, interspersed with a variety of gourds, top off the insouciant scene.
