I made this FALL WREATH YEARS AGO and decided it needed some plumping up! It had nice bones it just needed a little something extra to make it fabulous. Here is my Fall Wreath Re-do.
How to Re-Do A Fall Wreath
While I was in St. George I went to a store called Tai Pan (that no longer exists) and they had these beautiful BROWN ACORNS, A YUMMY SOFT GREEN PEAR and other round balls covered in RED AND BROWN DRIED LEAVES and I just knew they would add that extra something to my wreath. These large faux fruits and veggies create a nice focal point. Getting out my HANDY DANDY GLUE GUN I was able to attach them to the wreath. I then added little touches here and there of EXTRA FALL LEAVES (that I already had LAYING AROUND IN MY AUTMUMN BOX IN THE GARAGE) Adding in the extra leaves made the wreath much fuller. Isn’t this fall wreath re-do fast and easy?
VOILA!! a fabulous full fall wreath for just a few extra bucks.Hanging It on my black front door really allows it to shine! The bright orange and gold colors of the wreath just seem to pop because of such a contrast. What kind of wreaths do you like to use for fall? I created a natural corn husk wreath that you might like to see. It too really pops off of a dark background.
My Husband asked me last night….Is it fall already? I said yes it will be tomorrow..Sept. 1st! He said that is not when fall is..
I said at our house it is. 🙂
FAll IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR BEGINNING ON SEPTEMBER 1ST.
ANYONE ELSE STARTING TODAY?

Karins KottageWelcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with!
You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too!
I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!

The wreath looks fabulous with the extras. I just went to Tai Pan Trading here in southern California for the first time last Saturday. I didn't see the items you found. But then there is so much to see it would be very easy to miss.
Can you add my link or button-thanks.,
