Every year, Pinterest and other DIY networks are flooded with great ideas to decorate according to the season. Fall is a great time to address your Autumn creativity! Here are 9 great Fall DIY projects. Most of them are simple, great for any DIY beginners. Spruce up your home or apartments with these great ideas!
1. Fall Leave Back-Drop
This is a really simple project, you can start with any base, as shown here, they used a thin piece of stained wood. From there, you can either use real or faux leaves, but either way it will look great! Just glue on into any formation you would like.
2. Wall Decor
I really love this, its simple, yet so appealing! All you need are 3 items, a piece of wood for the base, some fishing line or ribbon and some leaves or another tapestry to dangle down!
3. Light Decor
Depending on if you have porch lights, this could also be placed on a handrail railing. This is a great and simple piece of decor that can go a long way. The simplicity of it accounts for its beauty. All you need is some string, pinecones and burlap! Get creative, make this your own!
4. Chalk Board Sign
You can either buy your own chalkboard or make it yourself by using chalk paint. If you just buy a chalkboard, you can add some extra fall flavor to it with the framing vine that adds some Autumn love.
5. Carry Board
Depending on how you approach this, it can be one of the more complex projects. If you build the carrying board yourself, you'll need some tools and building equipment. Wood, nails, a handle and probably some paint! If you're buying the carrying board, maybe just add some paint depending on what you want. You can add the mason jars with fall flowers for an extra addition.
6. Candle Center Piece
I LOVE this one! So beautiful but so simple! All you need is a hollowed out half piece of wood, a flat board would do too, tea light candles, and pine cones. You'll get a beautiful centerpiece that will also have fall scents coming from the pine cones! You could spray the pine cones with additional scents if you want. It will definitely be a talking piece!
7. Crayon DIY Pumpkin
This one is super neat! You can get these hollowed out pumpkins at any holiday store, even the dollar store and probably find crayons around your house! Just take a hair dryer and melt the crayons on top and they will melt down to the bottom, it ends up looking really cool! You can make the colors in a rainbow like above, or you can fix them to be fall colors such as your browns, oranges, reds and yellows!
8. Fall Coasters
These are simple and unique looking coasters. You can pick any fabric you would like.as you can see flannel is a great Autumn fabric to choose. You can really make these as you want, but to do it the simplest way you can just cut the fabric into 5x5 inch squares and sew the two together. Really simple! If you wanted to make them more sturdy, you could put a cork board in between them.
9. Candle Decorations
These cute candle sweaters add not only visual appeal but also some great smells! Cinnamon sticks smell GREAT and automatically send your mind to the sweater weather times. All you need are some candles, cinnamon sticks and whatever ribbon or yarn you want to wrap it all up with! I love the burlap yarn, it is so Fall! You can put these all around your house. I think they look super cute in little groups all at staggering heights, no matter your opinion they will look great!
