As the leaves change colors and the weather cools down, it’s time to start thinking about how to bring the beauty of autumn into your home. And what better way to do that than with some easy fall garlands? We stumbled upon some inspiration on A Beautiful Mess and decided to put our own spin on it. First up is the leaf garland. This simple DIY project requires just a few materials and can be customized to fit your color scheme. We found a free leaf template online and printed it out on cardstock. Then, we used acrylic paint to add some warm and inviting colors to the leaves. After cutting them out, we strung them together with twine. The result? A stunning garland that adds a touch of whimsy to any room. Next is the pumpkin garland. We used mini foam pumpkins from the craft store and painted them with metallic gold paint. Then, we strung them together with twine and added some additional accents like mini pine cones and dried leaves. The garland is perfect for adding some autumnal charm to your mantle or even your front porch. For those who love a good pun, the apple garland is a must-try. We used a similar technique to the leaf garland, printing out a free apple template on cardstock and painting them with bright watercolors. After stringing them together with twine, we added some brown paper tags with cheeky phrases like “You’re the apple of my eye” and “Don’t be a bad apple.” This garland is sure to bring a smile to anyone who sees it. Last but not least, we couldn’t resist the adorable acorn garland. We used a combination of mini foam acorns and real acorn caps, painting them with warm autumn hues like mustard yellow and burnt orange. After stringing them together with twine, we added some miniature burlap bows for an extra touch of rustic charm. Overall, these easy fall garlands are the perfect way to bring the beauty of autumn indoors. Whether you’re looking for something whimsical, charming, or punny, there’s a garland for every style. So grab your supplies and get crafting - the cool autumn breeze is calling your name!
