Get Inspired By These Decor Ideas
Festive decorations that are made to resemble themes during the Austin Fall season, such as fallen leaves and cooler temperatures, are best when creating your holiday decor. To achieve this, gather rustic materials that can be found outside, such as sticks, fallen leaves, and pine cones mixed with purchased materials such as straw, hessian fabric, and of course pumpkins, to get you on your creative way.
Outside gold leaf pumpkins
Mix up the typical Halloween pumpkins and explore with gold and white paint. Find a collection of different sizes, alternate painting the body of the pumpkins white and others gold, and using the opposite color for the pumpkin stem. For additional effect, spray paint leaves gold and glue on the white pumpkins. It's better if these are larger. Put the collection on your balcony or outside your front door.
Coffee table festive Fall decor feature
Get a large wooden bowl and fill it with pine cones. Place three large candles in the center of the bowl — bonus points if they have cinnamon and spiced aroma. Use a glass covering on top to protect the pine cone from the flame. Create textures by cutting a square placemat using hessian material and place under the bowl.
