Fall to me means family, guests, get together. I love to decorate in sync with the season. With the pandemic this year we will not be inviting people over. But that is no excuse to not decorate the house. I love fall and I love decorating the house. Pumpkins, buntings, wreaths , warm knit blankets and so much more. Freshening up the front porch or a change in mantle decor or just setting up the dinning table with a new runner sets in the mood for the season.
Instead of buying new things for decor I always raid the basement or my craft room. I love arts and craft . So creating new projects for home decor is like my favorite thing to do and a good stress buster too. I recently made a fall bunting from cardstock. it was so much fun and a quick project with my kid K. I already had the autumn leaves SVG saved on my Cricut Design Space from that project. So I decided to use the same SVG images and create something to co-ordinate with the fall bunting. For this new project I used scraps of paper from the previous bunting project (go green and recycle ). This pandemic has surely taught me to make the most use of all that I already have, buy less and reduce clutter. I had previously purchased a blank wooden plaque from Michaels. It was just gathering dust in the basement. So I made a small hanging card (if that is even a real word ) and added it to the wooden plaque to make a wall sign. I used Cricut Explore Air 2 to write the words as well as cut the tiny autumn leaves. I had some orange baker's twine that I used to sort of look like hanging leaves on display at an oval window. I just love how the beige card looks against the color of wooden plaque. What do you all think ?
