I have some FALL FOR YOU. I know it’s summer. I know it’s 100 degrees outside. I know falling leaves seem light years away. But here’s the thing. Fall is SO MUCH CLOSER than you even know.

And I’m here to get us all ready.

So in case you needed a little fall inspiration on a budget?

This is the post for you.

Here are 21 budget fall decorating ideas for your home along with budget finds for every room in the house.

LET’S GO.

1. Fill a basket with pumpkins.


I know, right?


Simple and easy.


You can find my list of favorite faux pumpkins for this year here.

//wood pumpkin// wood lid boxes//


2. Make a wood pumpkin from twigs in the yard.


3. Cover the edge of a hutch or bookcase with paper leaves. I just attached them with double-sided tape and crinkled the edges for a more realistic effect.

4. Make acorns from felted sweaters and stitch the top.


5. Create an acorn garland with felted bottoms and mini acorn tops.

16. Hand-stitch a thrift store tray for fall.


17. Layer in white dishes and velvet and straw pumpkins.

19. Drape a fall dish towel over the edge of a kitchen chair.


20. Tuck fall cards into the edge of a chalkboard or frame.


21. Add a basket full of wood slices to an interior door. You can see how I made DIY wood slices like these here.

And then?


Step outside and celebrate.


The season is changing. Hot chocolate and cinnamon cookies and sweaters and crisp cool days are just around the corner.


Here’s to all the fall that is here and is yet to come. 🙂
