Oh my Gourd...Melissa's October Favorites

My October Picks

"Fall"ing in love with moody designs and richer colors for autumn.

This month is all about Fall hues that mimic the changing leaves and temperature drops.

Make mealtime fun with these tortoise flatware sets! The bistrot design is inspired by French cafès. The utensils are styled with simple, modern details and visible rivets for a classic look.

Cooking in Real Life by Lidey Heuck

Cozy season isn't complete without some yummy comfort meals and we've got some inspiration in that department. My current obsession is the "Cooking in Real Life" cookbook that has so many drool-worthy meals you need to try this fall.

Scalloped Edge Floral Dish

I am ready to get into moody designs and deeper hues for the fall, starting with this darling dish that is inspired by the European countryside and brings to mind alpine farmhouse living.

Ceramic Floral Matchbox

And to "match" your new favorite dish, you need to have the matchbox. This Ceramic Floral Matchbox epitomizes how small things can have a big impact. Fill with Strike Anywhere Matches and leave this piece on the coffee table to light your favorite candle.

Nizam Stripes and Flowers Lacquered Tray And last but certainly not least, the rich colors of this beautiful lacquer tray from the Fall all the way through the holiday season. I love by the one and only Lisa Corti.
