Neutral Fall Tiered Tray Inspo

Take a walk on the wild side with this Neutral Fall Tiered Tray. This handmade Rustic Tiered Tray decor has accents of Leopard Print, Gold, and Sunflowers, with plenty of pumpkins to go along with it. If this Neutral Fall Tiered Tray doesn’t give you all the Fall feels, then I don’t know what will!

Neutral fall tiered tray with accents of leopard print, sunflowers, gold, and lots of pumpkins, acorns, pine cones, leaves, and other typical fall decor. Rustic handmade tiered tray with lots of handmade decor pieced on it to decorate for autumn and fall.

Not only did I hand make all the decor that you see on this Neutral Fall Tiered Tray, I made the tray itself! If you’re following along on Facebook, you probably saw me make many of the pieces you see here live.

If it’s handmade and on this tiered tray, then there is a tutorial for it. The only things I did NOT make are some of the little filler pumpkins and hay bales, and the mini mugs from Hobby Lobby, because they never come off my tray.

I’ve decorated tiered trays in all sorts of shapes, sizes, colors, and styles. My last fall tiered tray was not neutral at all. It was a lot more traditional, but with lots of POPS of teal. And my smaller tiered tray is packed with cute Halloween decor. But this year I did something totally different and did a Neutral Fall Tiered Tray with leopard print accents throughout.

And I could not be any more in love! It looks so fabulous with the whole Neutral Fall-O-Ween vibe I have going on in my living room!

Neutral Fall Decorated Tiered Tray

Almost all of the little pieces that you see on this tray are handmade, including the Tiered Tray itself. I’ve linked below to the Facebook Live, and/or the blog post tutorial where we made each one so that you can easily find them if you want to make them yourself! I hope you find lots of Fall Inspo here and I can’t wait to see how your Neutral Fall Tiered Tray turns out.

I don’t have a strict rulebook when it comes to decorating my Neutral Fall Tiered Tray. I know there are some decorating “rules” you are supposed to follow, but honestly I’ve never been one to follow those rules! I’m a #CraftyRebel.

One thing I do know to be true when it comes to decorating a Tiered Tray is that you want to create layers and varying heights with your pieces. One trick I have is to use little round wood discs as risers to create some height on things in the back. It makes a world of difference.

First things first, you need to start with a clean slate and take EVERYTHING off of your tray. Then I get out everything that I plan to use, so that I have it all right there in front of me.

Then, I just start putting things on and moving them around until I like how it looks. Sometimes I tweak and tinker with it for way too long before I get it how I want it.

Let’s start from the top with our Chunky Leaf, that is actually reversible from Target Dollar Spot. All I did was add the leopard print on the front, and music sheet on the back. In front of that is my fave piece on the whole tray….the Mini Salt Shaker Fall Florals!

To the right we have a cute It’s Fall Y’all Frame that was made with a napkin from the Big Pack of Craftkins (my napkin subscription).

It wouldn’t be a handmade Tiered Tray without the two staple pieces front and center…..the Mini Fall Bookstack and Mini Fall Wood Bead Garland.

Moving down to the middle, we have another fave front and center, the Mini Fall Ladder, surrounded by 3 Sunflower Mini Stamp Blocks that were made with Digital Deco Designs.

One of the blocks is on a Mini Pumpkin Riser that we made, and another is sitting in the Mini Mug from Hobby Lobby. And yes, I do realize that the one block is upside down, WHOOPS!

In the back left, we have the Burlap Candy Corn. This one wasn’t originally made for my Fall Tiered Tray, but I thought it fit on there perfectly so I decided to add it.

The two pumpkins, one mustard color and one dark brown, weren’t handmade. I found them in my stash and threw ’em on.

Before moving on down to the bottom, let’s talk about that Mini Burlap Pumpkin Banner that is hanging from the middle tier. So cute, right!?

Front and center on the bottom is the Mini Burlap Pumpkin Cutting board, with another mini mug and Sunflower block next to it. And those mini hay bales just absolutely make it!

It’s hard to see, but in the back right we have a reversible standing pumpkin. I intentionally made this one that was kind of big, and a little bit plain, because I knew that it would be hiding in the back.

In front of that is probably my third favorite, the Mini Pumpkin Pallet. It’s so pretty with those gold and white splatters, and the leopard print mini bow.

On the opposite side in the back we have the “Pumpkin Queen” round sitter. Another that was made with a napkin from my Big Pack of Craftkins.

And last but not least, the Leopard Print Pumpkin Pallet and the Gold Pine Cone. The pine cone was originally gold, but I painted it a *better* gold to match the rest of the Neutral Fall Tiered Tray.

The adorable little “Unbelievably Blessed” and “Thankful” mini mugs were a Fall Hobby Lobby find from a few year back, and are pretty much the only major items on here that I didn’t make!

If you see any little empty spaces, use your filler pumpkins and hay bales to fill in the gaps.

Some may say that my trays are “busy”, but that’s how I like them! And you do you BOO! What can I say, I’m EXTRA and it shows in my Neutral Fall Tiered Tray!
