Fall picture frames
This is a cute idea for a simple Fall decoration. Just print out letters that spell Fall in different color and different font. The next step is to find different picture frames that blend together. I would chose different colored brown ones because brown is a Fall color. Than the orange lights just make it look better and reflect off of the picture frames.

Bulletin boards
These were just normal bulletin boards that I had bought and wanted to put on the wall to be able to hang things on them. I did not want them to just have the normal brown bulletin board look so I bought fabric from Walmart that matched my room and I wrapped it around them and now I can have empty space and it still look okay because I have a background and it's not just brown.

DIY Halloween decor 2
I have these hanging black shelves in my kitchen and again I was looking for a way to spook up my apartment. I got an extra pack of the fake spider web and I had got the purple lights from again the Dollar store last year around Halloween time. I thought it would be a cute idea to string the lights around this but again it looked too plain with just the lights so I figured it'd be a good idea to string some spider web around it. I also have a pumpkin displayed on the one shelve for the Halloween and Thanksgiving decor. This is an easy fix for Halloween decor if you are looking for cheap DIY ideas for your home!

DIY Halloween decor
So I was wanting to make my apartment a little bit more spooky feeling than just Halloween decor sitting on my coffee table or what not. I had got these candy corn string lights from the Dollar store last year and I did not know where I was going to place them this year. I got the idea to string them around this picture that I have hanging in my living room. I didn't want to stop there because I didn't think it looked spooky enough. Than I figured that buying fake spider web would be a great way to spice up the spookiness in my apartment. It is kind of hard to see in this picture but I have a spider web draped over the picture. It is just enough so that you can still see the picture but it also looks blurry because there is the spider web in front of it. That is an easy way to make your apartment feel spooky during the Halloween holiday!

DIY Coffee Table ideas
I needed something for the middle of my coffee table because I don't think it is attractive when coffee tables are just clear. My roommate actually helped me think of this one because we had the mosaic candle holder in the middle of the coffee table and we thought it was not enough to fill all the space. So we then saw the pumpkins and thought they would look cute around the mosaic candle holder but that we needed something more. That was when we found the flowers and added them in between and at first I thought it was going to be too much because it was stretched crossed the whole coffee table but it actually turned out looking pretty well. These Fall decorations that I have been posting about are ones that can stay up not only through out Halloween but also Thanksgiving which saves a lot of money on decorations in my opinion!

DIY middle table fixture
I thought this was a cute idea for a middle fixture in my dining room table because I wanted it to be Fall décor. I actually bought the bottom wooden plate thing from Pier 1 Imports because I was going to use it when I cooked hot things and used a paper plate so that I wouldn't get burned through the paper plate. My roommate had the candle in the middle of our table because it was orange and pumpkin scented for Fall. I then went out and bought the leafs thinking I was going to do a completely different thing with them but than I wrapped them around the candle and I thought it looked good. I usually put that lamp top on top of candles that are the big Yankee candles that it fits on because it gives it such a better look than just having it open or with the lid on. This is a quick fix for a middle of your dining room table fix when you want some Fall décor.

DIY Candle holder fillers
![]() |
I know the past couple entries I have wrote have been about these same pumpkin fillers and that is because there was A TON of them in the pack that I had bought from Pier 1 Imports. I thought this was a really good idea for a filler for fall because instead of having all that clear space in the bottom of this candle holder, I thought the brown, tan, red and orange pumpkins went with the gold candle that I had in there. This is sitting on my kitchen counter to add some fall decor to the kitchen.

DIY Fall decoration filler 2
This blog post is very similar to my last post but a totally different concept with the same items. I had mentioned before that I had bought these pumpkin fillers from Pier 1 Imports and this is actually the second place, other than the last blog post I had shown you, that they have been placed because there was many of them. This is actually a candle that I had burned down pretty far (because it is a food network candle and smells AMAZING). The first picture demonstrates the different colored pumpkins in the candle without a tea light inside and it kind of looked a little plain to me but I really liked the idea. I decided to add the LED tea light candle inside because it does not get hot and would not be a fire hazard, I think that it spices up this DIY idea I had for a cute Fall decoration!

DIY Fall decoration fillers
This DIY idea blog post is about how to fill spaces in a different way than they are meant to be used. These wall scones were meant to have tea light candles inside of them but I do not like to light tea light candles in them because they are so close to the wall. So I had bought these pumpkin fillers at Pier 1 Imports and I had placed some of them in a different place originally and I had extras so I took the tea lights out of these glass cups because again I never had lit them and so I figured it would be a good idea to place the pumpkins inside of them. It looks like a cute Fall decoration because you can tell that they are pumpkins inside of the glass cups.
