Learn how to use all those pumpkins that you have been buying to create your own piece of fall home decor, is less than 30 minutes!
I’m a pumpkin hoarder. There. I said it. I buy every cute pumpkin I see – and we won’t even talk about the “after Thanksgiving” Fall decor sales. So what do I do with my pumpkin bonanza? Now that I’m home from my whirlwind world travels I’m ready to nestle in and get our home ready for my FAVORITE season…so I put together a quick video (complete with help from a nosey great dane) to show you how I used an antique box to create a piece of fall home decor that uses what you already have around the house and can be customized to any theme!
SUPPLIES Needed:
- large box or tub
- sheets, old newspaper, etc – to stuff inside the box
- assorted pumpkins in a variety of sizes – mine are from Hobby Lobby and Michaels
- assorted floral picks
how to make easy fall home decor:
Separate pumpkins in to piles by size.
Stuff box/tub “overfull” with sheets or newspapers – the weight of the pumpkins will flatten the stuffing as you work.
Arrange the pumpkins in the box/tub, starting with the largest pumpkins. Add the medium pumpkins, then the smallest pumpkins, then the floral picks to fill in any empty spaces.
This would also work with smaller containers/pumpkins for a table centerpiece…and you can also do this with Christmas decorations later in the year! Let the holiday decorating begin! 🙂
Now, if you need some written instructions, then we have you covered! Check out the instructions box below to see all of the details for this project. Plus, you can even print them or pin them to your favorite Pinterest board!
