EASY FALL WREATH IDEAS
It may seem that the easiest way to get a wreath for your front door is to just run to the store to buy one. Can I disagree? If you’re shopping on a budget, like I always am, what you’ll usually find in the stores looks sloppy, skimpy and thrown together.
I’d much, much rather use the same amount of time (or less!) that it took me to go to the store to make my own. And when it comes to making your own easy wreath, grapevine wreaths are your best friend!
With a grapevine wreath, you usually don’t have to do any gluing or wiring to add foliage to the wreath. Simply poke faux foliage stems in between the branches of the wreath. How easy is that?!?!

FAST FALL CENTERPIECES
Putting together a fall centerpiece doesn’t have to be complicated or time consuming. Each one of these ideas came together in 10 minutes or less! Click HERE for even more fall centerpiece ideas.
I always recommend placing your centerpiece on a base of some kind. It could be a runner, a tray, a basket, a bread board or anything else that will “ground” the look of your arrangement.

FAST AND EASY FALL VIGNETTES
Vignettes are one of my favorite easy fall decorating ideas! They are usually the first thing to catch someone’s eye as they enter a room and can be thrown together in nothing flat. Get step-by-step directions for how to create a fall vignette HERE.
Old wooden crates are the perfect color and texture for decorating with during the fall! Think outside the box (no pun intended) and try standing a crate on its end with a lantern and fall candle placed inside.
HOW TO DECORATE WITH VIGNETTES FOR FALL
Tiered trays are the absolute best when it comes to corralling lots of itty bitty bits of fall decor that would just look like a bunch of clutter if randomly placed on a surface.

Talk about easy fall decorations! It doesn’t get much easier than placing a pumpkin on a stack of plates under a glass cloche.

QUICK FALL PORCH DECOR
We all know that using mums and pumpkins makes decorating a front porch super simple, but how about displaying them in a unique way? Or, how about not using mums at all?
The below urn arrangement may look complicated, but it isn’t! Simply place a grapevine wreath on top of the urn, add a lantern to middle and poke faux fall foliage picks in between the branches of the wreath.
Trying cascading a variety of different colored mums and pumpkins down a set of steps for a welcoming fall “pathway” to your front door.
TIPS FOR CREATING A CHARMING FALL FRONT PORCH
You don’t even need to re-pot or change out your container plants for fall. In this container, where I usually keep ivy growing year round, I added a few pots of coleus and a few pumpkins right on top of the soil.

Thank you for all “this”! Why does September always shock me with how busy it is? After summer I’m ready to settle in, read, watch sports, drink tea, – but yes, I’m overwhelmed instead. You’ve helped me with these ideas – I have plenty of “faux” to use and can’t wait to buy some wooden beads and string them – sounds like the therapy I need!
Frances Cox says
What awesome ideas! I’ve picked up several new ways to use what I have. Love your creativity. Happy Fall!
Veronica R says
Great post! Take a break and watch a good fall movie with some hot chocolate and popcorn. That always gets me inspired for fall projects (sewing, knitting and decorating). 5 kids, 2 part-Time jobs and a farm….. I know busy! Can’t wait to hear about your project!
Carol says

Lynn says
I’m with you on the “plate overflowing” situation. However – your ideas have jump started my creative side. I love fall and can’t wait to get going. Thank you!!
Kathleen says
So many of your vignettes sparked a thought about my own decorations that are “stashed away” … ! I especially want to find a supply of assorted wooden beads to string … Thinking that large toy depts. might be a place to find something, too!?! I know they have had a line at Target with extremely colorful (and very lunusual colors), soft plastic that are quite special, but I”m not sure about wood? ( I think it’s worth a look, though!)
Again, thanks for the inspiration!

Your house looks beautiful. I love the basket of flowers on the door and the way you have lifted the pumpkins with the grapevine wreath and berries. That’s very clever. All the touches of yellow with the squash/gourds brighten up everything. Love it!
