I am sure you have noticed a lot of fall decor in stores right now,
and I'm sure you're probably thinking about what you're going to be doing this
fall season.
So I wanted to share some of my very best fall DIYs with you all to
get you all inspired and thinking about fall. Hey there,
my name is Yami. I am your Latina next door. Welcome back to mi casa,
where I share high-end home decor and DIYs on a budget as well as extreme
before and after room transformations. If that's something you enjoy,
so please make sure to hit like and subscribe so that YouTube can become part of
the familia. We're going to get on with the list right away,
but first I wanted to share that.
I have a brand new t-shirt inspired by fall on my website right now
that you all can purchase. And I'll put the link below in my description box.
With that being said, let's see those DIYs right now.
All right,
we're going to start off this fall a DIY list with one of my favorite dupes from
Kirkland's. I recreated this wreath a couple of years ago,
and it is one of my best wreath creations ever.
We're going to start with some dollar tree picks,
and it can be any of the ones that they currently have.
They have small ones and large ones.
And I also had a bag full of random potpourri and greenery items
that also included some pine cones. Next,
we're going to need some ribbon and we're also going to need a wreath form,
preferably this grapevine wreath.
And you can get these at Hobby Lobby for very inexpensive.
And to keep this very cost effective,
what I did was I got some of the greenery picks and any leftover pieces
of floral items that I had used for previous DIYs.
I got that stash and that is what I pulled from.
Now, because I'm recreating the look of this beautiful wreath,
it had a lot of blue,
which I totally love and I did use blue for fall that year.
And so what I'm doing is I'm painting all of my picks that beautiful blue color.
And if I recall, this color is called Nantucket Blue.
I also opted to paint some of the pumpkins a nice white,
and then I use a metallic copper color to color all of this stems over.
Next, to keep this very cost effective,
I had these orange berry picks from Dollar Tree and they weren't the color
that I needed, but I had some light blue acrylic paint.
So I decided to paint all of them in that beautiful blue.
And since I honestly didn't have enough of those thinner ones,
I also got some of these berry picks that are a little bit larger also from a
Dollar Tree that I just had on hand.
Then once I was done painting everything that needed to be painted,
I took all of my greenery that I had and began cutting them individually and
then sticking them into the wreath form. Now, of course,
these are not your conventional fall colors,
but everything will tie together beautifully once everything is put together.
Once I had a good bit of the greenery in place,
then I began to add all of my pumpkin and blue picks throughout to fill
everything in. And using some hot glue,
I use some of those pine cones that were in my little potpourri stash and
attach them to the wreath as well.
The final piece was to add a nice bow to the top of the wreath.
And I found this one.
It's a denim and khaki color and it is wired.
I found this, I believe, at Hobby Lobby and I bought it at Half Off.
And I just wrapped it around over itself and created a nice bow.
Now, if you want more detailed instructions for any of the DIYs that you see in
this video,
I will have a playlist for my complete fall video list of
all of my previous videos,
where you can find more in-depth tutorials for any of these highlighted
DIYs that I am showing you in this video.
I'll put that link in my description box so you can easily find it.
Now, once I attach the bow to the top of the wreath, it was complete.
Now here's a comparison of the original wreath alongside mine.
Now the reason I saved so much was because I basically used almost everything
that I had on hand. And if I didn't have it in the color that I needed,
I painted it. So I had huge savings on that. And if you didn't know,
this wreath was also featured in Tree Sampler Farmhouse Magazine
last year in one of their special holiday editions.
And as you can see,
it was the very first wreath featured in their wreath
article. How cool is that? Now,
this one's going to be really simple, but it does create a big impact.
You're going to need these jars from Dollar Tree or anything similar,
and a nice long tray. This tray is also from Dollar Tree.
It was silver and I didn't see it in any other color at the time.
So I decided to spray paint it in rose gold.
Now you can most certainly leave your glass jars clear,
but I wanted a more farmhouse white matte look.
So I decided to spray paint them white. Once they were completely dry,
I decided to add some raffia on the top sections of each of the
jars and tie them together.
Then I added a small maple leaf,
also from Dollar Tree and began to make my arrangement.
I laid each of the jars side by side and then began to fill them with picks.
Obviously you can use any kind of color scheme for this.
I decided that I was going for a very light peachy color and rose gold
combination that year.
So what I did was I just added these in along with these peach stems
and then some of the burlap leaves that you can find at Dollar Tree around this
time of year. And that was it for this beautiful centerpiece.
Now for my next DIY,
I'm going to be sharing my favorite hack for updating your old outdated
pumpkins. Of course,
take any pumpkins that you might have on hand and then you'll need some raffia.
You can buy these at Dollar Tree, at your local craft stores,
or even on Amazon in bulk.
Now,
if you're afraid that your color of your original pumpkin is going to shine
through this, like I did,
I went ahead and painted the pumpkin a brown color.
That way,
if there was any sneak peeks of the underneath of the pumpkin,
you wouldn't really notice a much difference between the pumpkin and the
raffia.
Then what you're going to do is you're going to start wrapping the raffia around
the entire pumpkin,
starting off with the creases first.
And then once the creases are done,
you're going to add a whole bunch of raffia throughout the entire surface,
making sure that all of the surface area of the original pumpkin is covered.
Now, as you can see,
this technique works with large pumpkins as well as small pumpkins,
and you can use any color raffia, light or dark,
or even alternating colors on the same pumpkin.
Here I decided to not paint my original pumpkin.
And honestly,
you couldn't even see a difference.
And then you can either put the original stem back on or create your own from
clay.
And that is basically it.
That is how you can turn your old outdated pumpkins into something brand new,
neutral and ready for the fall.
Now, if you love a pumpkin topiaries,
I have done a few on my channel and I absolutely love creating them,
but probably my favorite one was the one that I created from my mystery box
challenge.
Now,
the reason I liked it is because I had to create some fall decor with some items
that was sent to me by my friend Natalie at over at Design to the Nines.
And one of her items was an unfinished previous DIY that she started on on a
pumpkin.
Now I had this pumpkin already on hand and it had that beautiful gold sheen on
it.
And since I had painted over the pumpkin that Natalie gave me,
that had the grateful word on it,
I decided to add the same sheen on it,
but only in green to add a little bit of a different color.
Next,
Natalie had sent me that rope as well in the mystery box that she sent me.
And I had this cardboard box from a dollar tree.
So I decided to actually wrap it around and create kind of like a basket out of
that box.
And then of course I had some floral foam that I inserted in the center so that
I can add on to the top of it.
Natalie also sent me this tension curtain rod in my mystery box items.
So what I decided to do was take it apart and just use one part of it.
Then with my hot glue gun,
I decided to create holes into the centers of the pumpkins so that the pole
would slide right through it.
And this would be my anchor that would hold all of the pumpkins together on
themselves.
Once I stabbed the curtain rod through the main pumpkin,
I inserted it into the floral foam and I began to use greenery that I had on
hand to fill in the gaps between them.
Then I added the second pumpkin and the stem back on.
And here's how it turned out.
It does not look like a topiary that was created from several random items that
was sent to me and some items that I had in my stash.
Now this next one is not a DIY per se,
but it is to give you an idea of what you can do for a beautiful fall
tablescape in your home.
I started with this fabric that I purchased at Hobby Lobby.
It's this beautiful light colored plaid.
Of course you can go with any kind of color plaid that you have on hand.
Now these chargers that I have right here were ones that I had created in a
previous tutorial where I shared how to convert Dollar Tree chargers into these
beautiful galvanized metal ones.
Now for the plates I'm just keeping them simple and nice and white as well as
with some farmhouse napkins. And then for the centerpiece,
all you need to do is have a couple of cake stands.
The bottom one is one that I had purchased at TJ Maxx and the other one is just
a candlestick and a candle dish that I had glued together and painted to make
white also from Dollar Tree.
And you're just going to put one on top of the other and add a pumpkin on top as
well as some greenery all around the base.
And then you want to add small pumpkins all throughout the center.
And if you don't have pumpkins in a color scheme like this, again,
all I do is paint ones that I have on hand into my current color scheme.
And that is how I reuse old pumpkins over and over again for a different
types of styles and changes that I might go through throughout the years.
You can always add a small candle jars and you can always add some small glass
jar candles or some faux candles if you wish.
And that is all there is to creating a beautiful tablescape. Again,
it's just Dollar Tree chargers that I had painted, my regular everyday plates,
some Dollar Tree glassware to drink,
and a couple of painted pumpkins in the center and some inexpensive candles.
Just creates a beautiful setting for your Thanksgiving dinner or just to have
styled in your formal dining room throughout the fall.
Let me know what you think of this simple yet very beautiful and put together
tablescape.
My next DIY is a very large scale sign.
And while I don't use a lot of signs with words in my decor as much anymore,
this one is still one of my favorite pieces that I have ever created.
I use a large board leftover from a previous DIY project,
as well as some furring strips from Home Depot.
I spray painted the board white and I stained the furring strips and created a
frame out of them.
And I use the miter saw to create nice 45 degree angles.
I attached the board onto the frame and then I began to create my front design.
Now this is what it looked like without anything on it.
Next I had these pumpkins from Dollar Tree and I removed the raffia bows that
they already had on them. And I began to paint them.
And for these I use a blue, a light green, and a light beige color.
After I painted them,
I gave them some highlights by adding a little bit of white to each of the paint
colors and just highlighting sections of each pumpkin.
In order to cover the little holes that were at the top of the pumpkins,
I took some raffia and I wrapped it around the stems.
That way I can hide them really nicely.
I measured the spacing between the pumpkins out and then using some E6000 and
hot glue, I put the pumpkins together.
Then once they were attached to each other,
I glued them on to the large sign.
Then I created a large decal that said pumpkin patch.
I added it to the top,
made sure I measured both ends so that it was nice and centered.
And then on the bottom I added one that said apples, ciders, and hay rights.
And here is how it turned out. Again,
it is one of my favorite large signs that I've ever created.
Now you all seem to enjoy it when I paint on my channel and I had painted this
beautiful wreath for a spring DIY. Of course,
the other side of this had a another area where I could paint.
So I decided to paint it for fall and I got a little bit of white,
cream, orange, and green colors.
And I began to hand paint some pumpkins on the very bottom of this piece.
Now all I'm using is basic full cart acrylic paint that you get in those little
tubes at your local craft stores. Nothing expensive,
just really simple materials.
And I am not an expert by any means,
but this is something that does bring me joy and I like experimenting.
I am not that great of an artist,
but sometimes you get inspired and you want to paint.
So here I am just again,
creating really cute pumpkins on the bottom,
just to kind of simulate a little pumpkin patch.
I added some stems and some highlights as well as cute little vines to the tips.
And then once I was done,
I created a cute little decal that said harvest and that was it for this little
fall piece of art.
Now I had this cute little sign from Dollar Tree as well as this other little
pumpkin that came from a different piece.
And I had these scraps of leather that I had gone into Hobby Lobby and I decided
to actually create a dupe from something that I saw online at Kirkland's.
And what they had was a beautiful navy blue pumpkin with a leather piece that
said grateful on the front and some pins.
And I thought I can recreate that.
So what I did was I first cut that piece of faux leather to fit inside of that
smaller pumpkin and then I cut out the corners to match my inspiration piece.
Now my favorite part about this DIY is that this leather piece had stitching on
it, real stitching.
And I didn't have a way to do this with the thick leather onto the wood.
So I decided that I would use my wood burning kit and use the very fine point to
draw the stitching onto it and then burn the word grateful handwritten.
I know it's not the greatest,
but it worked and I burned that word right onto the front of that leather piece
and I just thought it turned out so well.
Now the original inspiration did not have a square frame on the back of it,
but my pumpkin was not going to stand up on its own because it wasn't as thick as
the original.
So I painted the box and I added some faux planks as you see right here with a
little bit of paint.
I wasn't going for perfection cause I did want it to look a little bit more
rustic for the fall.
And then I took a scraper and added some paint throughout that kind of match the
pumpkin color that I was going to be using to put on top of it.
Now once I was done with that,
I used some hot glue to attach the leather piece onto the pumpkin and I did
have a little bit of an issue there where I dropped it,
but I did remove that glue. It happens to the best of us.
Now once I cleaned all that glue up,
I took some gold thumbtacks and just hammered them on both sides of the
leather piece and then I glued the pumpkin onto the little frame and I love how
adorable this turned out. All right,
pumpkins are usually hard stiff pieces of decor,
but I wanted to create something a little bit more plush and a little bit more
soft and I came up with the idea of creating these beautiful stuffed pumpkins
out of fabric and I hand drew these patterns myself onto some brown paper and
then I cut them out on a fabric.
Now I was using some very light cream colored and striped fabric for this and I
created the three little pumpkins total.
The first thing I did was sew little square patches of fabric onto each of the
pumpkins.
I sewed striped ones on the cream colored ones and then white ones on the
striped ones. After I sewed the patches onto one of the pieces of fabric,
I sewed both of them together.
Now each pumpkin obviously had a front and a back and when I stitch these
together,
I did not do them right side facing in because I did want that frayed rustic
edge. So I'm actually sewing them on right side out.
Now I did leave a small little opening on each of the pumpkins so that I can
stuff them each with batting. Once they were completely stuffed,
I hand stitch the remaining little opening and I added a little bow at the
very top made of some jute string and here is how these turned out.
Now here is another way to revamp those old pumpkins and no you do not need to
know how to knit,
but you do want to grab some yarn and this yarn is from Dollar Tree as well as
that little Halloween pumpkin.
Now what you want to do is you want to start pulling pieces and begin cutting
them down to size.
You want them to wrap from the top to the bottom and what I did here was remove
the top of this pumpkin.
It had a larger plastic stem because it's a light of pumpkin so you don't need
as big a hole, but this is just what the pumpkin had.
And so what I did was I took that bunch and I glued it down at the top and at
the bottom. And to make this go quickly,
I just added several bunches as you can see here and began to glue them on the
surface of the pumpkin.
Now I did create a hole on the bottom of the pumpkin so I can stuff the ends of
the yarn as you see here.
And the reason I'm doing that is because I don't want the yarn and pieces to
gather up and bunch up at the bottom. If you have that happen,
not only are you going to get a different type of size pumpkin because it won't
be the original size and shape that you started with,
but it won't sit down properly because you're going to have a bunch at the
bottom. So you do want the bottom of the pumpkin to be as flat as possible.
Next add a little bit of detail and make it look like a knitted sweater pumpkin.
I took more of that yarn and braided it.
And then what I did was I applied it to the little indentations on the pumpkin
and I just thought that this took it to the next level. Again,
no knitting experience required. This is just a simple braid.
Finally,
just add your stem back and make sure to apply a little bit of glue so it
doesn't fall off. And here is how it turned out.
Now if you're into very simple and very minimalistic art, this one's for you.
You're going to need some large frames.
These are the ones from Dollar Tree that I believe were 11 by 13.
I'm not sure if you can still get them,
but they're very simple and slim and not very high quality,
if you will.
But what I did was I took some shimmery black paint and repainted all of them to
look a little bit more higher end.
Now I took some metallic copper paint and painted some of those Dollar Tree
burlap leaves. Now this is absolutely optional.
You don't even have to paint them and just use the burlap as it is.
But since I was going for a little bit more feminine and high end look,
I thought that the shimmer would add a little something extra.
Next take some poster board or cardstock and adhere it onto some frame matting.
You can get this at Dollar Tree, Walmart,
or you can just cut poster board to create your own frame.
Then glue the leaf onto the center of it and then just put the frame back
together. That is all there is to it.
Now if you're into a more traditional wreath, this one's for you.
First you're going to need that grapevine wreath form again from your local
craft stores. And then you're going to need some greenery.
Now I like to mix my greenery between Walmart and Dollar Tree.
They really have comparable pieces that are similarly priced.
Now I've got some leaves, some greenery, some berries,
and of course some pumpkin picks.
Now the first thing I like to do is I like to take apart all of my bushes and
create individual stems that I can insert into the grapevine wreath.
First I like to start with my greenery as a nice base and I like to go around
the entire wreath making sure that everything is filled evenly.
And then I start with my maple leaves and I do the same thing where I spread
them throughout evenly again to have that bottom filler.
Then after the maple leaves, I go in with the berries.
And what I like to do is I like to do all of the berries of the similar color
first,
and then I'll go in and then add the berries of a secondary color if I have
them. And then finally, after I'm done spreading those out evenly,
I come in with my little pumpkin picks.
And what I did here was actually take some leftover stems with leaves and I
inserted those into the pumpkins so that it looks like the pumpkin is nestled in
a couple of leaves.
Now you can most certainly leave it like this and you have a beautiful fall
wreath,
but you can always go an extra step and add a nice little fall sign to it.
And it doesn't have to be anything expensive either.
This is just a little piece that you're supposed to hang on your wall and it's
from Dollar Tree.
And all I'm doing is removing the little knob and then I'm taking some Mod Podge
and applying it all over its surface and adding some beautiful cardstock on top
of it to cover the front.
Then I'm going to apply a little bit more Mod Podge to seal it.
And once that's nice and dry,
I'll add a nice decal that I made on my Cricut that says Hello Fall.
Now you can paint these on,
write these on with paint pens or even use stickers from your local craft store.
Then I'm going to add a couple of dowels to the back of it so that I can insert
it into the wreath and have it stand up on its own.
And here is how it turned out. Now this was an oldie,
but I promise you it's still a goodie and it's one of my favorite DIYs ever.
Now it was back then when you can find these little houses at your local Dollar
Tree. Now these were hard to find,
so I actually made a pattern or you can build these yourselves to the exact
measurements.
And I have that free pattern on my website and I'll link to it in my description
box below.
All you have to do is sign up and you'll get access to all of my free printables
and patterns.
But basically I cut out some foam board from a Dollar Tree and I traced this
really cute pumpkin out of that foam board.
This foam board is going to fit right inside of that little house form.
And you want to cut it very carefully with your box cutter.
I took a sanding block and I sanded everything smooth.
And then I got some scrap of paper from Hobby Lobby and I traced the pattern
out.
I cut it to fit the front of that little house and I cut out again that pumpkin
form. Using a glue stick,
I adhered the scrap of paper to the face of that little house form.
Next I cut out a small piece of burlap and I glued it to the inside of the
little foam piece.
And when you flip it over, this is what it looks like.
Then on the inside of the little house form,
you can add some of these little LED string lights and you just pop that right
in front and you'll be able to have a light up little pumpkin display.
Now you can use some more of these houses to add onto this.
And what I'm doing here is I had both sizes of these houses,
so I interchanged them and I went ahead,
cut out the foam pieces to put inside of the frames and I added the scrap of
paper. But then with the berries,
I decided to add an F and an L and an L.
And then all together with these houses combined, it spells fall.
And of course there's that little pumpkin one that's lit up for some ambiance.
And again, this is just one of my favorite all time DIYs that I created.
I just love the way it looks all together. All right, for this next DIY,
we're not really using garlic and we're not making garlic. Okay.
It's just that the way I ended up painting these when I shared the final
reveal,
one of my subscribers actually said that they kind of look like garlic and now I
can't unsee it.
Now I'm flipping these over because I'm going to be using the backside and I
didn't want to have to worry about sanding anything down.
I just wanted to start with a nice smooth surface.
And I'm also going to use a piece of poplar board.
You can find these at your local Home Depot for about $1.50 now.
They come in three foot pieces, but I'm only using about a 20 inch section.
Now you can stain this or paint this to your choosing.
I set that to dry and then I began painting those pumpkins. Now,
as you can see, they were white,
but I decided to end up going with a nice light green color instead.
And then in order to give the pumpkins definition,
I added the ridges or you know,
the indentations and creases with some white paint to accentuate them.
And this is probably why they ended up looking a little bit like garlic.
Now I ended up cutting some beautiful copper foil letters with my Cricut,
but you can always use pre-made stickers or you can paint these on yourself.
And of course I wrote the word fall and then I ended up adhering them onto that
poplar board.
I use the small little tumbling blocks from Dollar Tree to give them a little
bit more stability so that they can stand up better once I glued them on.
Then it's simply just adding some hot glue underneath them and staggering them.
And that's basically all you have to do.
So this DIY I originally shared for spring,
but I think it applies to fall so I had to include it.
We all have these gold chargers at our house or we can find one at our local
Dollar Tree.
And basically I'm just going over them with some of DIY paint in white swan.
Now you can find DIY paint on my website.
I do sell it and it is a chalky clay base paint that adheres to almost any
surface.
Now because I'm going from such a dark color to a crisp white,
I will need a couple of layers of paint to get it completely covered.
Then I'm going to be using some Iron Orchid Designs transfer sheets in their
English toil pattern.
And what you do is you peel the backing off and you place them right over your
surface. Now once you get it where you want it,
you want to hold it down and with the spatula that it comes with,
you're going to start rubbing that transfer on to your painted surface.
And as you can see, the transfer just starts coming off.
You just got to make sure you rub it accordingly. And once you're done rubbing,
you remove that top plastic protective cover and you'll see what you end up
with. Once you're done transferring your images,
you want to seal this.
And I'm using Big Top Aftershow for this because it has a nice satin sheen to
it. And of course,
if you will be using it for any of fall or Thanksgiving festivities,
you do want to be able to protect your charger.
That way they don't get stained with any food.
So you definitely want to seal this. And once,
once the top coat has been cured, that is all there is to it. And as you can see,
I do have a little bit more of a spring setting,
but with the right colors and placemats and pumpkins,
this can be totally used for a fall table skate.
My next DIY is this sign and all you need is a scrap piece of wood.
And again, one of these little pumpkins from your dollar store.
You're going to stain it or paint it any color you desire.
And then what I did was I taped out some ticking stripes toward one end of the
board. Now I wanted to keep my design fairly simple.
So I decided to go with white ticking stripes.
Then I removed the tape and added a piece of ribbon down the center of the
ticking stripe.
I painted the back of the pumpkin and added a little details to create the
shadows. And then I adhered it on to that ticking stripe.
I cut down some poplar boards from Home Depot and I created a frame.
Next, I just created a hello pumpkin and decal.
And this decal is actually still available on my website for purchase.
I added it on and the sign was complete. And it's kind of funny.
My mom came to my house that fall and she fell in love with it and it is now in
her home. Now this one is an older sign,
but it's one of my favorite.
And here you see me painting this cute little crate sign in a color black and
it's just simple black acrylic paint.
You can get this little crate at Michael's and I'm just making sure that I get
all of the little planks everywhere.
And I have three little pumpkins that I painted already.
And these are from Dollar Tree. I did them in three different colors,
a peach, a green and a cream. And I added all the little shadowing to them.
And then I got these large popsicle sticks and using my mini miter saw kit,
I cut them down so that I can create a crate to put these pumpkins in.
I'm creating kind of like a 3D sign.
Now I'm arranging them like this,
removing the rounded edges and attaching them at the center with a vertical
piece. Then I add two more on either end.
I flip it over and to give it more dimension,
I add two more pieces of popsicles on the very ends.
And I do it in an opposite direction so that I can create that 3D effect.
And I do add some smaller pieces of wood on the inside to hold them together.
Then I attach the pumpkins onto the initial sign with some hot glue.
I add my center one and then I put the crate over them.
And then using some hot glue,
I also attach the crate onto the pallet and pumpkins.
Then finally I'm adding the word harvest to the front of it.
And I'm adding a little bit of wood pieces on either end,
since it's going across and there's that popsicle stick in the center.
I do want it to be nice and smooth.
So that's why I added those extra pieces of wood on the back of the word.
And then with the addition of a nice raffia bow at the top,
this is how it turned out.
This one is also one of my all time favorites and I use these foam Dollar Tree
pumpkins. These are the ones that you could only find at Dollar Tree.
Of course, now they have so many different varieties,
but for this one,
you're going to want something a little bit lighter like this that you can cut
and that has a wide top. And as you can see, I painted everything in white.
And then I had these fine tip tops that you can place on
top of those acrylic bottles of paint.
And what I'm doing here is I'm applying that top directly on this bottle,
just like this.
And I am going to use it to create a pattern on the surface of that
pumpkin.
And I also like this too because you can create a 3d effect with
leaving the paint raised.
And I am just doing a random pattern here.
It's not going to be perfect because this was the first time that I had ever
tried this,
but I am just going around and making beautiful little small
flowers and little vines and just kind of free handing it as I go.
Now, because you're applying a thick lines of paint,
you want to make sure it's completely dry before this next step.
You want to get a small candle and this one's from Dollar Tree and I traced at
the very top of it. And with a pumpkin carving knife,
I cut out the shape so that it would fit right inside.
Now this one fits in nice and snug, but if you had a smaller candle,
what you can do is you can add some floral foam to the inside of the
pumpkin and your candle can lay right on top of it.
And then you want to get some Mod Podge and seal everything and make it nice
and glossy if you want to. And this is how that one turned out.
Now, one of my favorite DIYs ever has been this burlap box that I
made with Dollar Tree foam and half a yard of burlap.
And it's something that I've used over and over again.
There you see it in the Christmas scheme.
Also, I have added roses and beautiful spring flowers to it,
and I have created a beautiful traditional Christmas
centerpiece for it.
But here we're going to be doing a fall version with this same box.
Don't ever be afraid to use the same containers that you have already on hand in
different ways. Now here,
you see me using some floral pieces from Hobby Lobby,
as well as a lamb's ear garland and everything I got for half off.
Now, something you can do for fall centerpiece is add potpourri.
And this smells wonderful, like spices and orange citrus.
And then you just need to go into your stash of pumpkins.
You've seen these throughout this video,
and I just kind of go back in there and see what I have and see what color
scheme I want to go with. And then, of course,
dismantle that previous centerpiece,
whatever you had with it, and start anew.
Now for the very inner base, as you can see,
I have floral foam and then I have some really cheap Dollar Tree garland that I
wrapped around the foam just to fill it in.
And then all I did was lay that lamb's ear garland on top,
place some pumpkins in it, and then started adding picks throughout.
Honestly, there's no wrong way to do this.
And if you mess up, you can always just take it apart and start it over.
You can make this as dense as you want.
And of course this is a great way to change up your color scheme for the year.
And with that potpourri, it honestly brings a nice fragrance to your space.
And here's another version using berries and just lamb's ear with some candles.
Now for this one, you can use succulents or you can use any kind of florals.
And again,
we're using these foam Dollar Tree pumpkins because this is what they've had most
of the time, especially in this size. Of course,
you can use any that you have on hand.
And what you want to do is you want to open up that very top and make it a nice
wide mouth and sand it down so it's nice and smooth.
Next, you want to paint the pumpkin the color of your choice.
I wanted to keep it a nice white, so I'm just using a white chalk paint.
Next, you want to add some floral foam into the center,
making sure you use a little bit of hot glue to keep it nice and secure.
Well, that is it for today's video. I hope you enjoyed it. If you did,
please make sure to give this a thumbs up.
