I love the crisp, clean colors of blue and white, especially in my dining room.  Mixing these classic colors with different textures and patterns creates the perfect autumn room to enjoy with my family and friends.



At the beginning of the summer, I stripped everything off the dining room built-ins and restyled the shelves with the blue plates.  Here is the post about my summer shelves Minimal Styled Open Shelves Using Navy Blue and White 

I am Continuing the blue and white color palette for fall.  It is early fall and the leaves have not changed yet so I kept the fall decor to a minimum.  I added warm colors and textures like the baskets and the metal sign.  As we progress further into fall when the leaves start to change I will add more of the rich colors of fall.

For a quick transition into fall, I added a metal sign with a deep red hue to the middle shelf and balanced the rest of the shelves with cobalt blue plates.  My collection of everyday blue transferware is displayed on the bottom shelf.  Grouped together they make an artful display.  The knit pumpkin that I made adds a whisper of fall.

The decorative plates that can't go in the dishwasher or microwave are hung in sets of three on either side of the industrial stainless steel cabinet.  I use this cabinet to store our everyday dishware and other essentials.  The large antique basket on top of the cabinet is for storage and also adds a warm texture and color for fall.  I made a simple leaf garland and draped it over the handle.

  The plaid fabric and blue pillows add more color to this space.

Ginger jars are great for storing tea or coffee.  I used two in this display.

I hope you enjoyed this mini fall tour of my blue and white dining room.  There will be more peaks inside of this room so please come back.

If you want a similar look in your home for fall, thrift stores, and yard sales are great options for finding dishware.  If you would rather shop online in the convenience of your home, I recommend Amazon.
