I’ve “Fall”en and I can’t Get Up!!

October 8, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 10 Comments

I know I have already shown you some of my fall decor, but I went a little crazy and well, I’ve “fall”en and I can’t get up. I can’t get enough of this season and I swear I have some sort of pumpkin on every spare surface in my home. They will be adorning my porch next as my front door is already taken. Here are a few of my latest projects I have proudly displayed.

I got this cute paperback pumpkin idea from The Craft Monkey. I have since added a stem and leaves, but was too lazy to take another pic.

Card stock, leaves, stick, and rhinestones on hand

We made a whole bunch of these easy paper pumpkins (Idea altered from Two Peas in a Bucket). We made some small and some big. The top pics are from my house, bottom pics from my sister’s place. She has a front room decorated with hints of giraffe. I love the tiger pumpkin in her tree.

The original idea for these signs came from this burlap boo banner on Everyday Chaos. My sis and I found Halloween colored burlap at Robert’s and decided to do “spooky” since we had enough burlap for that many letters. That evening her friend could only find black burlap. She glittered the letters and they turned out sooo cute! I plan on adding some spiders and things to spice it up.


My sis saw this next one at Ikea. All you do is melt a black candle and drip it down the sides of an orange candle. We put a small black candle in a jar and sat them on my candle warmer to melt. We covered some of the tops with black and left others just around the edge.

I found these corduroy pumpkins with cinnamon stick stems (so cute!) along with the vine and twinkle light adorned multi-candle stand at a garage sale. I stuck them in my fireplace since we never use it. I even cleaned it out with lysol wipes because my son kept sticking his hands in the ash residue. It looks extra festive at night with the lights on.

Can you believe that I have not even pulled out my Halloween decor? These are all items I have made or collected this year. For heaven’s sake. Here are two more garage sale items in the works. They will be “fall”en soon!

    You are amazing! The only “Fall”ing I’ve done this year is get out my Rubbermaid buckets and put up what I had from last year, plus a couple added decorations from Tai Pan. LOL

    You so make me want to go to the dollar store! But the problem is that I can’t “SEE” how random things can turn into something cute. You’re amazing!
