Autumn Decor

I'm going to Doha, Qatar next week and I am soooo excited. I have never really travelled before so I'm a bit nervous at the same time. The flight is going to be soooooo loooongggg and the stop overs just as boring but it's all going to be worth it once we get there.

And do you know what's hilarious? I can't wait to EAT over there. There are going to be a ton of restaurants that we will be able to try out and I'm ecstatic about it, which is kind of sad when you think about it, haha. I also can't wait to do a little shopping, I just hope I have enough room in my suitcase for everything I know I'll want to buy. I seriously cannot contain my excitement and since Monday is a holiday, I only have 2 working days left!!! YESS!!!

But enough about that for now, lets talk about Fall. As I've said before, I love Fall. I spent last weekend decorating the outside of my house with some Fall Decor. I'll probably add some Halloween stuff to it when it's more closer to Halloween. For now, I just focused on Autumn related stuff.

I had a really pretty wreath that was just fall colored leaves, so I picked up some sunflowers at the Dollar Store and glued them on.

I think it made such a difference to the wreath. I thought it was pretty before but I absolutely love it now.

Then I made a fall arrangement in an urn that I had flowers in during the summer.

I went out in the woods behind my house and found some broken pieces of birch trees and stuck them in the urn. The urn is filled with rocks so I placed some wooden planks on top and then put a large pumpkin on it. Then I put some flowers around the pumpkin and taped a crow to the top of it. It literally took me 5 minutes to do and I think it looks pretty darn good.

I also put some pumpkins and flowers on a table that I borrowed from my mom and taped some pumpkin lights around it.

And here's a picture of it all together.


My grass is just growing so next year I will be able to put some hay and pumpkins on the lawn.

I think it all came together pretty nicely and the best part was it was fairly inexpensive. Aside from the pumpkins, everything pretty much came from the dollar store (aside from the wreath and urn I already had).

What do you think? And how do you decorate for Fall?
