Ten beautiful DIY fall decor and wreath tutorials!

Use what you already have to create beautiful door decor arrangements for
fall! 

I’ve created SO many beautiful DIYs for our fall front doors and porches over
the years, so I gathered them all to share here. This is a good mix of wreaths
and floral-filled containers that are just as pretty!

Most of these can be taken apart and easily reused for a different season or
new look next year. 

DIY pumpkin wreath

This is one of my all time favorite fall wreaths! I LOVE the color and
little details added throughout on this

This one is made with a grapevine wreath as a base, so it’s easy to change
out every year if you want. 

DIY pumpkin patch wreath

This is another cute one I call a pumpkin patch wreath because the little
faux pumpkins are nestled into the greenery.

This wreath took less than ten minutes from start to finish! The grapevine
makes it so easy. 

Metal bucket with fall florals

My favorite door decor is my Southern Living at Home container and use it
almost year round — I love how one piece works for all seasons by just
changing out the filler. 

For the fall, I have used the same “stuff” year to year, but every year I
seem to end up adding more to it. 

I just pull the whole thing out of the container every year, put it in a
baggy and store it away. 

When I put it out, I just pop it back in the container and fluff like mad.
Oh yeah, and stick more “things” in:

This arrangement is everything I love about this time of year. Those
colors and textures look lovely on our front door:

Using garland for a DIY wreath

I saw a beautiful, burgundy leaf wreath at Target a couple of years ago that
I fell in love with. Turns out they had a matching garland that was
much cheaper. 

Using a grapevine wreath, I wrapped and tucked the fall garland around till
it was nice and full: 

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve used that grapevine wreath over
the years! I use it for every season, over and over!

Paper flower fall wreath

This DIY fall craft may not be the best idea if your front door gets hit
with the elements, but it would look lovely on the inside of a door! 

A pantry or garage door would be perfect for this one. 

Fall “pocket” door decor

The next door idea is one I am really loving, and it took me all of ten
minutes. I had another hanging metal container in the basement that I
haven’t used for years. 

It thought it was too bright white for most of my fall decor:

So I took my walnut stain, and dry brushed it on to highlight the raised
areas. 

It kind of smudged onto the other areas, but I ended up loving the look
and kept doing it all over:

I stuffed a bit of foam in (just cut it with a knife if it doesn’t
fit):floral foam in metal pocket
I snipped
a leaf garland
apart into sections and just stuffed them into the floral foam:faux fall flowers
Because, I can’t leave well enough alone, I wrapped some bronze fall
ribbon around the hanger:

And ended up with this pretty cream metal pocket full of fall flowers:

Fall felt wreath

If I ever have the time to sit and cut out the felt for hours again, I
would do it a bunch of warmer colors. I think that would be so
pretty! 

Fall floral hanging vase

This arrangement started with another hanging container I had in my
decor stash. I gave it a quick coat of brown spray paint:

Then picked up some beady/grassy picks from the craft store:

And just stuffed and stuffed (notice a theme here?). 

I found a couple feathery picks from Hobby Lobby and threw those in
too:fall decor stems for door
There is no rhyme or reason to it — just arrange till you like it!

Lovely!!

To hang this, I took a
cheap metal wreath hook, straightened it out, then hot glued the ribbon over it:

Dollar store DIY fall wreath

This
square fall wreath is one of my all time favorite fall DIYs! I made it
with pretty faux leaves from the dollar store:

The large crepey leaves were so easy to attach to the foam
board. They had some wire in them so they were easy to move
around. 

This gorgeous wreath only cost me a few bucks to make!

My finishing touch is always to add some felt pads to the
back off all my containers or wreaths, so they don’t scratch
up the door:

Don’t forget you can hang these on the inside of
your front door, so you have something lovely to look at
on the way out. 🙂

Do you have something you can use to create a DIY fall
arrangement? Stuff some leaves or pumpkins or floral
pics in and you can’t go wrong! 

You don’t always need to purchase new to make your home
warm and cozy this time of year.
