Hello everyone and happy fall!!!!!
You guys don’t know how excited saying that makes me!! I mean, I absolutely love fall and everything about it from the clothes, to the trees, to the pumpkin everything!!!!
Just, yes!!!!
This year I was trying to come up with ways to add more fall decor into my house on the cheap! And I’m happy to say that I did it!!
One HUGE money saver that I came up with was adding little fall touches to my already existing wreaths so I didn’t have to go out and buy all new wreaths, because I’m getting quite the collection of wreaths around here!😬.
I can’t help it, they just make things look so much cuter! Please say you feel the same way and that I’m not just turning into a crazy wreath lady!
Anyways, enough about my wreath obsession, let’s get to this money saving strategy already, shall we!??!
Here’s what I did, because I had some really neutral wreaths that could easily be changed up a bit for each season.
Here’s the neutral wreaths I started with.
I took two different wreaths of mine: My DIY Magnolia Wreath and My DIY Farmhouse Wreath (at least that’s what I’m calling it:)
If you don’t have wreaths to start with then feel free to make those wreaths, and then add in your fall touches to them. Everything you need to know about how to make them is in those links given above.
I’ve loved these wreaths because they’re so neutral, they add so much character, they go with everything, and now I’m having fun adding holiday touches to them depending on the season for a super cheap way to add holiday decor.
First, I’ll show you what I added to my Magnolia Wreath. I got this Fall Floral item from Hobby Lobby for 40% off of $6 Dollars, and this was enough to put into my two Magnolia Wreaths.
I cut each individual branch off and stuck them into my Magnolia leaves without using glue or anything! That way I can take them right back out when fall is over with.
See below pics for reference on where I cut them and how I just tucked them right into the wreath.
Cut the stems
Tuck the stems into your wreath
Keep tucking them in until you get the length that you like them at.
That’s it!! You now have a Fall Magnolia Wreath for $3 Dollars!!!!
Now let’s get to the Fall Pumpkin Wreath!
I took this wreath…Added a bag of these I got from Hobby Lobby, again for 40% off. I can’t remember how much they were, but these were cheap as well! It came with 6 pumpkins! In hindsight, I would have probably bought one or two more bags to make my wreath extra pumpkiny. (Yes, I know that’s a word I just made up, but you get the point!) I may still go back and by more for November, but right now all my Halloween decor is out so I don’t need to just yet.
I then just stuck in the pumpkins, again using no glue or anything, so that way I can just pull them right back out when Fall is over.
Keep sticking them in where and how you like them, and you’re done!!
I even used this one as part of my dining room table centerpiece, too!
That’s it!! Super simple ways to add fall decor to your home for super cheap!!! I sure like the sound of that!
Happy Fall everyone!
Thanks again for coming, and I’ll see you back here for my next project real soon!
XOXO,
