Learn how to use all those pumpkins that you have been buying to create your own piece of fall home decor, is less than 30 minutes!

I'm a pumpkin hoarder. There. I said it.


I buy every cute pumpkin I see - and we won't even talk about the "after Thanksgiving" Fall decor sales. So, what do I do with my pumpkin bonanza? Well, now that I'm home from my whirlwind world travels, I'm ready to nestle in and get our home ready for my FAVORITE season!


I put together a quick video (complete with help from a nosey great dane) to show you how I used an antique box to create a piece of home decor that uses what you already have around the house. Plus, this home decor project can be customized to fit any theme!

Here are the supplies you will need:

  • large box or tub
  • sheets, old newspaper, etc - to stuff inside the box
  • assorted pumpkins in a variety of sizes - mine are from Hobby Lobby and Michaels
  • assorted floral picks


Step 1: Separate pumpkins into piles by size.


Step 2: Stuff box/tub "overfull" with sheets or newspapers - the weight of the pumpkins will flatten the stuffing as you work.


Step 3: Arrange the pumpkins in the box/tub, starting with the largest pumpkins. Add the medium pumpkins, then the smallest pumpkins, then the floral picks to fill in any empty spaces.


Make sure you watch the video above, to see how I made this Easy Fall Home Decor!

And voila! With a simple crate and a few pumpkins, you can easily create your own fall home decor piece is less than 30 minutes!


Besides making a large piece of fall home decor, the techniques used in this projects could also be used to make a small table centerpiece. If you wanted to go further, you could also use this technique with your Christmas decorations later in the year! Let the holiday decorating begin! :)
