Bring the vibrant feel of outdoors into your warm and inviting Sukkah this season. It’s easy to recreate this look using items you might already own!
If your mind is already on Succos, you can start planning.
And even if it’s not, before we talk about this tablescape, take notice of these custom name place cards.
Why? Because they’re the only thing that you really need to order in advance. They take at least a week, and more likely 10 days to arrive, but you don’t want to cut it close. If you can guess what your guest list might be, take care of it now.
For under $1 a piece, the price is right, and they add that custom touch without the big investment.
Whether you place them on the plate or the napkin, they’re a beauty. And they’re perfect on this rustic, warm, and inviting table we’re setting for Succos.
This time, we’re getting very practical. And one of the best ways to be practical while setting a beautiful table is to be able to use the “real” (i.e. non-disposable) items that you already own for an entirely new look. That’s what we’re doing here.
Sure, you can still go disposable for your plate (these Bone China dishes from Crate & Barrel are a blank slate and can be swapped for virtually any white dish), but when the items surrounding it are real and beautiful, no one will notice.
You first saw this Velvet Ribbed Tablecloth that you first saw here last Chanukah. We loved the tablecloth Adorn Your Table brought us for the photoshoot so much, we wanted to own it for real. And we’re enjoying it. It’s perfect for this Succos table.
These napkins were originally featured in our Shavuos tablescape and now they get to work for Succos! They’re so pretty and soft and they don’t cost much more than disposable linen-like napkins. They were a great investment!
Do you rather own a more neutral color that you can use for any Yom Tov without being bound by one color scheme? No worries, Natural, Caramel, Beige…they all work just as well. See? The beige is shown here.
Save them and use them Yom Tov after Yom Tov and they can look different and beautiful each time.
Rattan placemats and napkin rings complete the look. (These placemats and napkin rings are from Crate and Barrel, but you can copy this look with Amazon options as well). These napkin rings work will really well too!
It’s warm and inviting, but still fresh and vibrant…it invokes that feeling of bringing the outdoors in, yet cozier. It’s the perfect Succos vibe.
These flowers come from Trader Joe’s. When you’re using an assortment of vases clustered together, the less expensive flowers really work beautifully. No need for fancy arrangements. Read more about getting maximum impact from minimum flowers here.
We used some of the vases from Chanukah and added a couple of these terracotta vases so we have more height.
One more note before you go…if you order the name tags, you’ll see they come very carefully packaged. Tap them out gently!
