What kind of fall decorator are you? traditional colors or more non-traditional? I love the traditional, but the past couple years I’ve been doing a more non-traditional. Like scouring all stores for various small shaped pumpkins and then spray painting them all the rainbow colors. My kids ask me every time I go spray painting them colors other than orange : ). I just can’t help it. I absolutely love the changing of the fall leaves and feel like the burst of vibrate yellows, oranges and red is the last bit of hope before the darkness of winter sets in.

I actually decided this is the summer of wreaths, they are so easy and quick to make that I’m finding myself addicted. My modern fourth of July one was one of my faves. As I was thus reminiscing over the end of summer, I realized I needed a new fall wreath with all my favorite colors. Since I used mini pumpkins for the wreath and sprayed them all my favorite colors. I then painted the top gold to bring them all together. (While were on fall subject, did you see my finger knitted scarf?)
I hung the pumpkin wreath on the door and then my new hello fall crochet banner is hanging on the pineapple. The two go nicely together since I used the same yarn to wrap the wreath as I did for the hello fall banner. But I must admit, it’s the yellow door that really makes all the pumpkin’s colors really pop.
Modern & Colorful Pumpkin Wreath
Supplies:
Embroidery HoopThick Yarn
Small Pumpkins or Small Bag of Pumpkins
White Flowers
Step 1: Spray paint the pumpkins.
Spray the bottom of the pumpkins first and when they are completely dry, turn over and spray the top of them. Once completely dry, hand paint the tops gold.Step 2: Wrap embroidery hoop in yarn
Just wrap the thick yarn around the embroidery hoop until it’s completely covered. Then cut and tie it offStep 3: Lay out the florals and pumpkins
You want to now lay out your leaves, pumpkins and white florals until you get a design how you like it.Step 4: Hot Glue
Now starting with the bottom layers of leaves, hot glue everything on as you previously placed it.
And that’s it! SOO easy! Now that we’re less than 2 months away from Christmas, I’m already plotting a new Christmas wreath of the same caliber.
Fun! I love how you have so much color! I’m such a neutral girl, I forget that color in the right places adds some fun.
