October pulls us all toward warmer tones — that's not a hot take. But the palettes we've been tying this month aren't just "fall." They're specific. A bridal shower in Aledo wanted terra and saffron, no olive. A 40th birthday in Westover Hills asked for plum and a single sheen line of amber. A neighborhood block party leaned into all five.
Below are the six palettes that came through the studio most in October. We've linked each one straight to the builder — tap, swap a color, change the length, add to cart.
1. Harvest
Terra, saffron, olive, amber, plum. The palette that started October. Long sweep, low light. Best on a mantel or running the length of a sweetheart table.
2. Bridal in Aledo
Terra and bone with a single thread of blush. We tied this one for a wedding on the Brazos. Photographer's dream — reads softly under string lights, holds up at noon.
3. The 40th
Plum, mauve, ink, with one cream strip running through. Heavier, moodier, not afraid of a darker room. We tied a 10-footer for an arbour install — it carried the whole space.
Color carries memory. The trick is picking the colors that match the memory you're making, not the colors that match a Pinterest board.
4. October Garden
Eucalyptus, sage, olive, butter, cream. A softer fall — for the host who hangs onto green as long as possible. We're tying these for late-October baby showers.
5. Cream + Ribbon
Cream, ivory, linen, lace, with a single satin ribbon thread. The neutrals palette. It's our most-ordered in October because hosts who don't want "fall colors" still want the season to feel real.
6. Berry + Sage
Berry, plum, sage, eucalyptus, cream. The unofficial Thanksgiving palette. We start tying these the second week of October so they ship in time for the table.
Every one of these is ready to build — head to the builder, pick the colors that catch you, pick a length, and we'll hand-tie it from our studio in Fort Worth.
