Easy to do Fall Decorations on a Budget!
These fall decorations are so easy and budget friendly. And most of them you can just use what you end up finding around the house, outside, at the dollar store or thrift store. Hopefully this will help you get some ideas and start looking around the house for inspiration and get started on your own fall decorations for your home. I won't bore you below with making you scroll a mile down to see how I put something together one step at a time, I think we all can figure out that on our own. lol! So here is some images, quick list of what I needed, and just take the idea and run with it how you think would look best in your home! Have fun!
Fall Tray Display
This fall decoration was so simple and cheap to do! This is great little tray fall display to put on tv stand, kitchen island, coffee table, dresser or anywhere you want to add a little fall display. I feel like I literally threw stuff together and created just the cutest table top fall decor without even really trying and it was all under $15! I even found a cute little pumpkin with our last name initial to put in there and the cinnamon broom makes it smell amazing as well as cute! Everything here was at the dollar general. The pumpkins, a tray, and the flower garland, and bag of fall decor balls. Visit Etsy to find cute fall decor.
Need:
Wood Tray
Bag of Fall Bowl Filler
Fall Garland
Pumpkins and any other little decor to put in there, such as cinnamon broom.
Put it all together, and start feeling fall festive!

Halloween Ghost Easy Project
This Halloween Ghost was so easy to make. I had him ready for a spooky evening within just a few minutes. I found most everything I needed at the dollar tree, besides I already had a tomato cage at home as well as a sheet to use. So in the end this cost me $5 to make! And if you happen to have a few tomato cages, and a big sheet you can cut up you can make more ghosts, I had plenty of craft glue and black felt to make many more eyes. I just did not have room on my porch for more ghosts so I stuck with just one this time.
Need:
Tomato cage (turn upside down so pointy on top) - Tip: If you don't have one, most likely your neighbor or someone if your family will that you can borrow.
Black felt (to cut eyes out) ($1)
Craft Glue ($1)
Styrofoam pumpkin or plastic kids pumpkin trick or treat bucket ($1)
Battery operated lights ($2) I bought two strands
White sheet (if you don't already have one to use, check your local thrift store )
Turn tomato cage upside down, wrap lights around cage, poke styrofoam pumpkin onto the top to hold in place, or the plastic pumpkin bucket and put your sheet over it and add your black felt eyes with your craft glue. I made my eyes a little more oblong then circle and it turned out great. Wait for evening and turn on your lights and enjoy your new spooky ghost. I tucked mine onto the front porch next to my stacked pumpkins and it is super cute!
Fall Kitchen Island Decor
Again, another easy and cheap decorating idea on a budget of under $10! First of all, the two tier rack I already had at home so that was my inspiration. Dig around your kitchen and find your inspiration to use for this project and then off to the dollar tree I went. I found everything I needed to create this cute fall decor piece. All I had at home was a two tier rack, a couple battery candles and a festive fall idea!
Need
battery operated lights
battery operated candles ( I already had this at home)
Two tier rack of any type
fall garland / fall leaves / bows / little pumpkins
Really, anything you find that you think would be cute. Again, throw together how you like and boom! Feeling fall festive on a budget.
