Yesterday, I shared with you 25 amazing burlap ideas from around the web. I love working with burlap so much so I wanted a great reference guide for things to do with it. Today, I am back to share my own burlap project: easy burlap wrapped candles.

3D Pumpkin Art
Styrofoam pumpkins and gourds make awesome decorating tools because they are so versatile and last forever. Buy a couple of bags during the craft store sale and you will literally have pumpkins for years. Recently, I had some leftover from my fall burlap baskets project and decided to create 3D pumpkin art with them to display in the house.

Mini Burlap Wreath for Fall
What do you do when you are decorating for fall and your mantel is just missing something. There is a giant space in the middle of your favorite mirror and you have nothing on hand that works right. Go shopping? Well, that would be my first inclination too BUT I had a sleeping three year old and no parental back up…oh, and an overwhelming need to get this done now! So, I ran down to my craft area and gathered up a few random supplies to throw together a mini burlap wreath for fall.

Fall Burlap Baskets
You know when you have one of those weeks where all the days are jumbled and you just can’t get a grip on your schedule? Yeah…every week in September has seriously been like that for me. So much so that this post for fall burlap baskets almost didn’t happen {it is happening late but at least happening}. I had bought all of the supplies but just couldn’t find the time to sit down and work on them…much less photograph them! Thankfully, I snagged a few hours to work on some projects this past weekend and the baskets came together.

Fall Felt Leaf Wreath
September is always a funny month here. One day {yesterday} it still feels like summer with temperatures above 90 degrees. Then, the next {today} the temperature will top out in the 70s. It is really hard to feel like decorating for one season or another because you are constantly being thrown between two seasons. I didn’t let the hot weather stop me though from starting on my fall decorating. I used the heat as a reason to stay inside and test out my new hot glue gun instead creating my fall felt leaf wreath.

A Not So New Fall Wreath
Ok, my dear friends…I have a confession: I fell way behind on my craft plans {thanks to a certain house renovation project…ahem} and didn’t make a new wreath for fall/Thanksgiving. I know…it gives me the sads too.
Never fear: I’m bringing back a blast from the past and sharing the wreath I made last year for fall. It is, after all, what is living on my front door this year. {A bonus: I took a few more pictures of it with my slightly improved photography skills}

Spaghetti Jar Vase
Happy Thanksgiving week! Can you believe that, in a few short days, we’ll be sitting down to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner?! Time is certainly flying by this year.
I mentioned last week that, this year, I would be hosting Thanksgiving for the first time ever. It is a small crowd {just us and my parents} so I haven’t really done much decoration wise. I was sitting in the dining room though and decided it needed just a little something extra besides our table decorations. So, I created a spaghetti jar vase..actually several to be exact.

Interchangeable Lanterns for Fall
Fall is in the air on my mind.
It is, sadly, not quite in the air since we are having a spurt of 90 degree temperatures recently. A girl can dream of cooler temperatures and changing leaves though, right? This year, fall starts right at my doorstep with these lanterns.
