As the crisp air and colorful foliage of autumn arrive, it’s the ideal time to infuse your home with a warm and cozy ambiance. With some simple and inexpensive DIY fall décor, you can add a touch of seasonal charm to your home.

DIY Fall Décor Ideas

Create a rustic centerpiece. Collect fallen leaves, pinecones, and acorns from outdoors and arrange them in a decorative bowl or tray. Add battery-operated candles or miniature string lights for an enchanting glow.

Craft a leaf garland. String colorful leaves together to create a festive fall garland. Hang it across the mantel, staircase, or window for a beautiful seasonal accent.

Paint pumpkins. Give some plain pumpkins a makeover by painting them in fall hues, or get creative with some fun designs. Display them on your front porch or use smaller ones as a table centerpiece.

Make a wreath. Collect foliage from the yard and fashion a wreath. Consider adding burlap, twigs, or artificial flowers for extra effect. Hang the wreath on a door or in an entryway to welcome guests with autumn cheer.

Use hay bales. Place hay bales on the porch or patio and set pumpkins, potted mums, or a scarecrow on top for a fun seasonal display.

Dry out some sunflowers. Dried sunflowers, corn husks, and berries are lovely autumn accents. Use them outdoors, on the porch, or as an indoor centerpiece.

Illuminate with lanterns. Place battery-operated candles or solar-powered lights along steps and pathways to create a magical ambiance on cool fall evenings.
