Painted Hello Fall Sign with faux floral embellishments

I found a wooden fall sign that I had stored in my Autumn bin, which I had purchased from my local Joann's store. I want to share with you an easy decorating project that involves painting and embellishing. You will only need a few materials, such as paint, flower embellishments, and faux leaves. Below is a complete list of all the materials you will need.

Painting leaves on the wooden sign

Start by painting the leaves on your wooden sign. I used a darker green color and combined it with a cream paint color. For a few of the leaves, I used only the darker green paint color. While painting, use the cream color to outline areas on the leaves. You can also mix the two colors together to create a lighter green hue. I left some of the wooden leaves unpainted, and we will come back to those later.

Applying paint to branches and the pumpkin on the wooden sign

Next, apply brown paint to the connecting branches that lead to each of the leaves and around your sign. Once you have painted the leaves and branches, take your orange paint and begin painting the pumpkin on your sign. I combined orange paint with my cream color paint, and I used a little of the cream color paint to outline the pumpkin. I also used a little brown paint to apply to the stem of the pumpkin. After, take your red acrylic paint and begin to paint the letters on your wooden sign.

Adding faux leaves and embellishments

Now you're ready to start adding your faux leaves. Using floral cutters, cut a few pieces of the leaves from the stem. Use hot glue and start attaching the faux leaves to the unpainted leaf sections. Finally, take your flower embellishments and add them to your wooden sign. I used a little hot glue when attaching my flowers to my wooden sign.

Easy Steps to Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home

Hello everyone! I’m excited that you decided to visit the blog today. I wanted to share how to create a cozy autumn tablescape at home. My goal was to design something warm and inviting, as our table is a space where we share conversations, drink coffee, tackle homework, and simply enjoy each other’s company.  I typically don’t go all out when decorating my dining table, but I wanted to show you how I styled it using decor pieces I already had. I would love for you to join me in this decorating adventure! Watch the video tutorial Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home Items I'm adding to my table:  -White tablecloth runner - Battery-operated leaf lights  - Reusing glass jars  - Mini pumpkins and other fall decorations  - Small "Hello Fall" sign  - Faux flowers I began by spreading my white tablecloth down the center of the table. Around Halloween, I purchased this tablecloth a few years ago at my local Walmart. After laying it out, I realized that I could ...

How I Styled 6 Fall Trays Using Simple Reused Decor

  This fall, I wanted to challenge myself to decorate with just a few simple items—things most of us already have tucked away in our craft bins. With one round tray, a Dollar Tree lantern, a battery‑operated LED candle, a handful of faux florals, and a mix of Dollar Tree pumpkins, I created six different autumn looks. Each one feels cozy, seasonal, and unique, all without buying a bunch of new décor. My goal was to show how versatile your everyday pieces can be. By swapping out colors, textures, and small accents, you can build fresh designs that fit your style and your space. Watch the video tutorial Decorating Each Tray My First Tray: Classic Lantern & Autumn Florals For my first tray, I began by placing a round tray on a woven placemat to create a cozy base. Next, I placed the black lantern in the center and added a small LED candle inside. I figured this would provide a soft autumn glow that I love. I took yellow faux florals and arranged them around the lantern to brighten...

Hello, blogging friends! Today, I’m excited to share an easy makeover I did using a “HOME” sign from Dollar Tree. This project is simple, but the transformation feels soft, warm, and inviting—just the kind of piece that quietly brightens a space.
