For more information on how to complete these DIY projects, and for more ways to get your house looking like fall, check out our Velde Ford Pekin Pinterest page!

1. DIY Doormat

Paint your own personalized welcome mat with paint from the craft store! You could go for something a little less spooky, like pumpkins or leaves, or stick to the halloween theme! 

2. Crafty Mobile

Let the kids get involved by having them paint with fall colors on white paper. Cut out the shapes of leaves and attach them to a branch with fishing wire. Hang it on the wall or from the sealing to bring fall indoors!

3. Hanging Sunflowers

Using styrofoam balls and twine from the craft store, you can create these hanging sunflowers to decorate inside or outside of your home! Pick up some fake flowers and trim the stems to fit into the styrofoam.

4. Decorative Pinecones

If you want something a little different that the typical wreath to hang on the door, try decorating some pinecones and stringing them up to make a fall inspired decoration! If you can't find your own pinecones to decorate, the craft store should have plenty this time of year.

5. Creative Pumpkin Carving

We're sure you're going to want to carve pumpkins for Halloween, but switch it up this fall! You can use stickers and permanent markers to get this crafty haunted house look for your pumpkins!

We want your family to feel nice and cozy as the weather changes, so we hope our favorite DIY decoration projects will help you decorate your home for fall!
