DIY Friday: Candles + Leaves = Fall Loveliness

For many of us fall is coming to an end and winter is here. But since it is November we still have Thanksgiving colors all around us in decor. Here are two great ideas for a November wedding.

All you need for this DIY is a cylander glass vase, leaves (fake or real), ribbon, and a hot glue gun.
Many times you can find the tall cylinder vases at the dollar tree for $1. If they don't have them then you can get them at WalMart or Michaels for around $4.

It would be easiest if you hot glued the leaves on to the vase so they do not move when you tie the ribbon around it. 

For these vases you can get a bunch of berries and place them in a glass vase
or take leaves and glue them to the vase.

DIY Friday: Pumpkins and Candles

I couldn't just leave you with one day of DIY pumpkins this October. I hope you are inspired by these pumpkins that work great as candle holders

 

Simple and elegant.

I love the small pumpkins on the tall candle stands.
You could even carve out the middle of the pumpkin and put a candle in it.
With a small pumpkin it would look more like a candle holder then your usual carved pumpkin.

 These pumpkins have leaves painted on them. My favorite ones are the two in the back.

I would love to see this pumpkin spray painted silver with a white or orange candle in it.

DIY Friday: Pumpkin Vases

Pumpkins pumpkins everywhere. Pumpkins can make great vases for a October wedding. Here are a few DIY ideas to bring decor to your ceremony or reception.

I love this pumpkin vase! Take some sticks and spray paint them black.
Cut a small whole in the top of the pumpkin then stick the sticks in it.
You can leave it like that, hang a  table number from it, or hang escort cards from it.
Dont forget about those great white painted pumpkins at the bottom of the picture!

You could paint your monogram or wedding date one the pumpkins.
Then cut a small whole in the top to put flowers, or even sticks with crystals or fall leaves hanging off of them.

This pumpkin vase uses wire that is twisted then put in the bottom. Then cut a whole in the top and put in your favorite flowers. I think white spider mums would look great in this!

Fall Table Decor

Fall is here and if you are lucky everything around you is turning into beautiful colors of red, gold, yellow, orange, and purple. If you are looking for fall decor for your wedding this is the perfect time to get it! Last night I went to WalMart and found tons of great ideas. If your wedding is not til next year wait until the fall decor is for sale and then buy it at least half price.

These pumpkins are fake so you can get them for a wedding next year

and then sale them after your wedding.

I love this wire pumpkin candle holder

These small pumpkins would be great to set across a table or in a large glass vase

These pumpkins had a shimmer and had some leaves with them
