If celebrating autumn is your passion, and you get lots of visitors, why not create a nice spot to take photos at and create precious memories? For example, you could place these DIY wooden pumpkins in a spot in the garden!
You could leave these stylized "pumpkins" around the garden by simply by painting wooden trunks/stumps.
They are also very nice when placed on the front door steps - and there is no risk of them rotting away like real ones.
Decorate the garden with corn leaves in autumn
You could create very beautiful decorations using dry corn leaves to make tall compositions which can then be decorated further.
They could even be adorned with strings of lights, or become a "dress" for a tall lamp or support column.
An autumnal look using recycled objects
Another great idea is to take old objects and turn them into autumnal decoration.
You can decorate old garden tools or even an umbrella with autumn leaves.
The idea of decorating an old ladder with branches, leaves and maybe even fairy lights, always works well. Very cute when placed under trees at the side of the front entrance.
And even an old, slightly wobbly chair can become the central piece of an autumnal-themed corner outside the entrance to the house.
Autumn compositions in vases, planters and more
Those who love to have fun with compositions of flowers, fruit and various other objects can go wild in autumn - and not just with pumpkins!
Pumpkins are beautiful to look at in any planter, including tin ones. But sometimes you just need to add a few finishing touches to the pots.
Topiary art, but this time using pumpkins and colorful autumn leaves! A great way to decorate the entrance to your home.
Pumpkin borders!
