I'm so excited for fall to arrive. Even though I'm on a 3 week restrictive diet (of which I may later blog about), I still can't wait to drown my face in Pumpkin Spice Lattes, fried State Fair festival food, and mugs of Oktoberfest hefeweizen beer. However, despite my current limitations I can totally decorate for fall without any hesitation.
I don't know if any of you like to scour your local craft store for anything new and interesting like I do, but I have been seeing some cute alternatives to the traditional fall crafts. Like using raw cotton plants in place of your usual fall foliage, and acorn inspired decor rather than your usual pumpkin theme. Here are some super easy DIYs to decorate your home with warm, cozy, fall inspired decor.
Acorns
Acorns are the easiest, cheapest way to making your abode look in season. Just grab a couple from the nearest oak tree, bake to remove any bugs, and adorn.
I love this idea of removing the fruit, retaining the acorn cap and replacing with colored polymer clay balls. The neutral of the acorn cap plays beautifully off the super bright clay colors which you can find at your local craft store.
