Bring on the Pumpkins and Fall !
By: Ruthie Tanner
Eventually the heat wave will be over, right?? So even though we are still dealing with triple-digit heat, fall decor and pumpkins have arrived at my house.
Let’s do a little fall decor. Fall is one of my favorite seasons to decorate for. The colors are so rich and vibrant plus nature is such a wonderful canvas to pull from.
Start with a large basket tray.
Amber-colored jars are so beautiful and can be purchased from many places. However, I rescued these from the trash of a friend.
ALWAYS look for hidden treasures you can rescue!!
After a good cleaning, glued a black velvet ribbon around one and added a piece of decor (that was a hair clip that broke).
Decor includes a deer horn, amber jars, velvet pumpkin (makeover from Dollar Tree) long feathers and a ball of feathers (that actually was a Christmas ornament years ago but I liked it so now works as fall decor for me) a few other things that are fall colors.
Lay items on the tray until you get the look you desire. Larger pieces at the back- smaller ones in the front.
The feathers are just stuck down in a jar- nothing hard there.
The other fall stem was shortened to the correct height and then stuck in other jar.
The piece of animal print fabric was tucked in for the finished look.
That’s just how easy it is!
You could always just use several different size small pumpkins and pine cones. Shop your home for fall colored vases or decor. Think outside of the original use for things. You would be surprised what you will come up with.
Fall is the season you can use rustic and “perfectly imperfect” items so well. You do you !
If you know me- you know I always enjoy the bling side of things, even in fall.
Keep believing sweet friends the FALL weather will show up SOON!
Thanks for visiting Graceful Home today,
