ABOVE: Saulson designed the
custom tablecloth, crafted by
Chanee Vijay, an artist she found
on Etsy, with a metallic screen-
print leaf pattern. Simple gold
flatware from West Elm picks up
on the gold in the Lenox china,
a wedding gift to Michele and
her husband, Eli. Silver leaf is
swirled into the tumblers by April
Wagner. RIGHT: Sumptuous and
shimmering: Mini white pumpkins,
pine cones, acorns and sprays of
eucalyptus from the Birmingham
Farmers’ Market line the holiday
table, punctuated with golden-
toned votives and Simon Pearce
glass bowls overflowing with
grapes. FAR RIGHT: Family dog
Daisy, a rescue from the Grand
Traverse Humane Society — an
unintentional match to the dining
room chairs.
