Easy Fall Porch Decorating

Fall

Share it with others!

Or I could plant mums in him. I decided to start here and when the mums die, I can put the hat on him.

Fall is coming and it’s one of my favorite times of year. I’ll share some of my favorite and easy fall porch decorating ideas with you.

Tie a piece of twine at the top for hanging. Your sunflower wreath is done for you to enjoy.

How To Make A Clothespin Sunflower Wreath

I made this sunflower wreath several years ago and I still love it to this day. I put it up and get tons of compliments on it.

A little Rit Dye, some clothes pins, a wreath form, and a few finishing touches and you have a sunflower wreath. Its’ inexpensive and easy to make your own easy clothespin sunflower wreath.

Or I could plant mums in him. I decided to start here and when the mums die, I can put the hat on him.

Flower Pot Scarecrow

In the past I made a flower pot Nutcracker. He was so much fun to make, I decided to try making a flower pot scarecrow for fall! He turned out so cute, and now I have some of these flower pot creations for every season – Nutcracker, Bunny, Uncle Sam, and more.

For Fall - add mums, pumpkins, pine cones, and other decorations.

DIY Crate Red Pickup Truck

I was messing around with the wooden crates at Walmart and inspiration stuck! I wanted to make a vintage little red pick up truck that I could use around my home. The best part – you can use this all year for all seasons! He’s all dressed up and ready for fall.

Old Plaque to New Autumn Sign

I found this old wooden plaque at thrift store for $1. I brought it home, gave it some TLC and love, and made myself a new autumn sign for the fall. It sits on my plant stand and welcomes everyone as they arrive on my porch.

Easy Front Porch and Fall Decor

As we transition from summer to fall sometimes it can be hard to decide what to put up on your porch or in your home. I took some jars, beans, and popcorn kernels, and made a simple and inexpensive display to put in your home or on your porch.

    Chas, your diy creations are always so clever and inspiring. How cute is the scarecrow with his mum planter hat and the sunflower clothespin wreath looks like something i really need to try my hand at.
    Do you think I could just paint the pins instead of using dye?

    I love your fall decorations. I’m not very excited for it to be fall already, however. I could not find the grandma’s house we go link party on your page. But I thought that I would leave a comment here anyway. Thank you for hosting the party. Our links this week are: #96, #97, & #98. Enjoy your week.
