As you know from my last post, I placed two pumpkins on my door stoop last week. The punch of color is beautiful, but I felt like it still needs something, but wasn't sure what. I definitely do not have room for a third pumpkin....
Next I began collecting branches to fill the vase of my entry console. I looked on our lawn, around the building on our side, and then near the parking lot. I probably looked a bit silly picking up small twig branches, but I was on a mission! I set them in the vase, only to find they were too short. My next thought was to crumple some paper inside, and use that as a support to arrange the branches. Instead, I found a piece of hemp and returned outside for a spontaneous DIY:
front yard DIY
Materials: Twigs, hemp string, and about 5-10 minutes of your time- SERIOUSLY
Gather the branches together so they meet in a central spot. This is where you will tie them altogether. Arrange them at different heights for interest and to keep a natural look.
Tie the twigs together with a strand of hemp. I chose a simple knot.
Then use the second string of hemp to tie your bunch of twigs onto a post, tree, or rain gutter as seen here.
And that's it! Here's is the full look~
I have really enjoyed coming home this week. It's just a little touch of Fall, but it makes me smile~
