Nothing’s better than a hike in the woods on a beautiful fall day with my family. On those outings, my kids love gathering acorns, pine cones and dried flower tops as they explore the trail. And of course, these items end up in my pockets or in little piles around the house.
So instead of feeling overwhelmed by these beautiful bits of nature surprising you everywhere you look, use them to decorate for fall!
Acorn baubles are an easy and inexpensive fall decoration that incorporates found nature items, a hot glue gun and a couple of things from the dollar store. So let your kids fill their pockets on your next hike, and make some beautiful fall decor that can be strung up with lights or hung with a branch over your mantel.
Is August too early to decorate for fall?
No. Some say the start of school is the unofficial start of fall, and I couldnt agree more. But if you want to pull decor from nature, you might have to wait a bit before going out foraging.
Gather materials
Grab a basket and go out into the woods or any natural area with oak or pine trees. Gather acorns, pine cones, dried tops from coneflowers and other items from nature that catch your eye.
