Fall Crafts Inspiration

It's fall and that means time for decorating! My daughters and I love, love, love this time of year.

We finally got our Fall/Halloween stuff down from the attic (thanks hubby!) and while we were digging through the boxes, each of us trying to find our favorite piece, I noticed something.

I haven't really made time for crafting lately. Oh, don't get me wrong, I've baked and cooked up a storm, I've glued and colored a few things too, but nothing like I used to.

I think I'm in a crafting rut.

So to break out of my craft funk, I turn to the mother of all creativeness: Pinterest.

Here are some ideas that sparked my interest:

1. Autumn Leaves Wreath- We have lots of trees with leaves starting to change color, so this is a project I can do with the girls in afternoon. Pretty!

2. No pin time would be complete if I didn't visit my perennial favorite Better Home and Gardens. Just look at these cutie patootie owls! Another craft I can do with my daughters~ win!

3. Here's another cute Owl project. Now we're getting those creative juices flowing!

And just like that, I know what my theme will be for my fall crafts this year: Leaves and Owls! I may even do an owl themed carved pumpkin, you never know. Whatever I decide on. I'll be sure to share it here.

Thank you Pinterest and all the crafty people who pin! I invite you to follow me on Pinterest and please leave your account link in a comment so I can follow you back.

What crafting/decor project are you working on right now? Please share!

The owl crafts are adorable! I'm not that crafty, but I'd give those a try.

Hi Shanna,

I bet you are talking about the cute Chevron owl, aren't you?

I agree with you, so cute and whimsical! If you make it, please stop by and let me know!

I love these kinds of crafts... the kind that look super cute, but you can throw 'em together in just a few minutes, with the female equivalent of the MacGyver tools... glue gun, glitter and pipe cleaners. lol Thanks for sharing.

Hi Niki,

Exactly! And I love the fact that you mention MacGyver tools. I was a fan too.

Happy Friday!

So talented. I wish I had the creative juices to find things around me to do. Even looking through Pinterest I don't have the thought to put two and two things together. Great job!

Hi Blischka,

Thank you! I find inspiration comes easily on Pinterest, but now I have to find the time to get crafty.

I put it on my planner, like an appointment for next week!
Happy Saturday.
