Charcuterie to Centerpiece: How to Transition Your Boards from Summer to Fall
From Summer Snacks to Fall Style
We’re officially in that magical time of year—when the mornings are crisp, the leaves start turning, and game day is back on the calendar. (Yes, football kicks off tonight!)
If your charcuterie board has been working overtime all summer long with fruits and spritzers, don’t pack it away just yet. With a few thoughtful changes, it can move seamlessly from entertaining essential to autumn centerpiece.
Game Day Ready: Boards That Score
Let’s start with tonight—football season is here, and whether you're hosting a small watch party or snacking solo, your live edge board makes an ideal base for hearty, game-day bites.
Try this combo:
Sharp cheddar, gouda, or blue cheese
Sliced apples or pears (bonus: Upstate NY apple season is just starting!)
Pretzels, mixed nuts, and rustic crackers
Maple mustard, fig jam, or apple butter on the side
✨ Featured Boards:
Cider Stripe – a warm, woodsy blend perfect for early fall snacking
Berry Bliss – moody and rich, ideal for wine nights and cozy gatherings
Pumpkin Orange River Board – the official color of fall kickoff
Turn Your Board Into a Seasonal Centerpiece
Once the snacks are gone, keep the board out—it deserves the spotlight. Here’s how to use your charcuterie board as a foundation for autumnal home styling:
Add mini pumpkins, eucalyptus sprigs, or dried orange slices
Cluster a candle, a ceramic mug, and a few pinecones
Place a linen runner beneath the board to add softness and contrast
Layer in rustic utensils or small amber glass jars
Position it on your kitchen island, dining table, or open shelf to bring warmth and texture into your space.
Boards Built for Fall: Featured Favorites
Looking for a board that naturally fits the season? These handcrafted beauties are made to transition:
Pumpkin Orange River Board – the color alone says October-ready
Cider Stripe Board – butcher block style with layered woods, like a fall forest
Berry Bliss Board – bold purple resin perfect for moody styling
Raspberry Ripple – dramatic and elegant, for a more romantic fall vibe
Every board is made by hand using locally sourced wood and poured epoxy resin—no two are exactly alike.
Pair with Handmade Accents for Full Effect
To complete the look, pair your board with coasters, centerpieces, or even floral wreaths that echo the season’s tones. Some ideas:
Copper Creek or Twilight Cascade Coasters for rustic charm
Neutral floral arrangements with a touch of Halloween in amber or cream for depth
Early fall wreaths featuring sunflowers, wheat, or burlap bows
💡 Don’t forget—our boards make incredible gifts for fall birthdays, weddings, and hosts!
