The ladies in my Facebook Gardening Group called the Garden Charmers are at it again. I asked the members in the group to show me what they have to share for Fall Junk art and home decor projects, and they came up with a great variety of ideas and tips for you.
Decorate in style with one of these junk art home decor projects
Wandering around the yard in the fall gives us lots of colors and natural elements that are the perfect choice for supplies to use for autumn decorating.
The ideas ranged from many ideas for pumpkin decor to a great-looking black crow wreath and a neat and easy fall decor table project.
The ideas in this article come from these bloggers:
- Carlene – Organized Clutter
- Lynne – Sensible Gardening and Living
- Stephanie – Garden Therapy
- Barb – Our Fairfield Home and Garden
- Karin – Lebensart im Markgräflerland
- Judy – Magic Touch and Her Gardens
- and me! – The Gardening Cook
So, grab a cup of coffee sit back, and enjoy this round-up of home decor and garden junk art projects.
Got feather boas? Think wreath!
Stephanie made this great wreath decoration project that is just perfect for this time of the year. It is made with five faux crows and black feather boas.
Perfect for the front door on Halloween night. See her tutorial at Garden Therapy.
Make your candles smell like candy corn
Judy’s project is so cute. She used terracotta pots, candy corn, candles, and some Halloween fabric to come up with A DIY project that will have your house smelling like candy corn when you burn the candles.
Now the only problem is not eating the supplies! See her tutorial at Magic Touch and Her Gardens.
Make a table decoration with gourds
For my submission to this roundup, I have an article that features and inexpensive and easy-to-do project.
It takes just a few minutes to put together but is very pretty and looks great on my table. See the DIY project at the Gardening Cook.
Pumpkins and scarecrows for fall decor
Lynne from Sensible Gardening and Living has a rustic project that she put together using a wooden star, a caged pumpkin, and some cute scarecrows. You can find her idea on Pinterest. Topsy turvy tipsy pumpkins
My friend Barb loves to make tipsy pots. This time, she got into the Halloween spirit with a planter made of pumpkins decorated with natural elements from her garden and placed on a slant.
See how she does them at Our Fairfield Home and Garden.
Turn your bun warmer into a Halloween pumpkin
Carlene from Organized Clutter is the queen of Organized clutter. Where you and I see junk, she sees a project.
This adorable pumpkin decoration was made from an old bun warmer. See her tutorial over at Organized Clutter.
Fill up a window with pumpkins
Karin lives in Germany and has a great page that features all of her fall decor with pumpkins. I particularly liked this image of a whole window filled with mini pumpkins and gourds.
Head on over to Lebensart im Markgräflerland to see more of her fall ideas. Her site is written in German, but you can put the ingredients and directions into this Google Translator to see the English Version.
