1. Detail of Indian Summer Napkin. A napkin is so much more than something to dab at an errant drip of dinner with. Over a sage or chocolate tablecloth, these napkins become highlights and conversation pieces. Remember, all Saffron Marigold textiles are hand printed, and fair trade.
2. Square Dip and Side Dish Bowls, from the Mud Place. Iron Red glaze has got to be one of my favorites. It is bright and warm, cheery and sturdy. These bowls would be wonderful for relishes and spreads at your festivities.
3. Fall Leaf Hurricane Centerpiece by Stephanie Lynn. What I love most about this centerpiece is its versatility. Spend some time outside to find just the right color leaves for your table. Add peat moss, or a found nest at the bottom of the hurricane to bring in more autumn tones. (I would suggest sliding a small candle plate between the candle and the foliage, just to be on the safe side…)
4. Masala Chai. Your guests will feel warm from head to toe when they taste this creamy, spicy delight. Make it with friends and family and it just may become a new tradition!

lovely. elegant and striking!
Gorgeous color!!! How fun it would be to add this to our kitchen palette
I would use my yellow dishes to dress up these beautiful linens.
I love the simple beauty of this pattern, so I would add only a few green and golden-hued candles and perhaps some burgundy flowers interspersed in some greenery.
My yellow dishes, cut glass wine glasses and gold plated flatware would shine on a table set with Indian Summer napkins. The centerpiece would be a big wood bowl piled with apples, oranges, tangerines and nuts.
I think the perfect centerpiece for these napkins would be a bouquet of flowers colored like the ones on the napkin, in a nice tall pewter vase – I have one that belonged to my grandmother.
Those napkins would look really pretty with my gold placemats and the red and yellow chair covers I won from Saffron Marigold earlier this year!
Use it for table setting by placing them on the plates with a small yellow pumpkin on top for color. Not too many props since the color and pattern are so striking.
Centerpieces would be acorns, pumpkins and candles in orange votives.
I want to drape your lovely designs all over my new home.
I’d wrap them around my old silver – cinching them with some wild grapevine.
The pattern is beautiful!
my MIL’s vintage china pattern would go perfect with this…
I think a centerpiece of color with pops of red would be great with this set. Love your tablecloth sets, they’re beautiful! You guys are amazing and I appreciate the diversity of what you offer. Great great job!
