Autumn Hacks

Hey everyone, Summer is finally behind us and autumn is here! There’s a crisp chill in the air, the leaves are beginning to turn all kinds of beautiful colours, and of course, people everywhere can be seen with their loveliest smiles. The beginning of fall is a truly magical time, let’s capture it because this gorgeous weather is going to change overnight and then there will be cold winters.

Here is a list of some pretty amazing fall hacks for this season:-

Acorn candles: Fill the bottom of your candle vase with pieces from dismantled grapevine wreaths. Place your candle inside and then toss in a bunch of gathered acorns.

Go nuts: This amazing wreath will inspire your friends when they knock on your front door. Simply hot glue acorns, mini pine-cones, coffee beans, walnuts, anything rustic really to a painted foam wreath.

Golden leaf crowns: Transform your kids into little fall elves by making crowns together out of autumn leaves. Simply collect fallen leaves and carefully thread them together.

Leaf mask. Get the kids inspired by the season change by making them a mask made from colourful leaves. All you need are leaves (of course) and adhere them to a paper plate.

Scented candles: Tie cinnamon sticks around your candles. The heated cinnamon makes your house smell amazing!!

Bake the bugs out of your pine-cones: Everyone loves decorating with pine-cones. Why pay from something at the craft store when Mother Nature provides it for free, right? If you decided to collect them while on a nature hike, remember bugs live inside of them. So pop them in 200 degrees oven for 45 to make sure you rid them of all the little critters.

Ombre Pine Cones: Painting the tips of pine cone scales with gradual colour changes elevates a hum-drum woody seed into a vibrant decorative piece. Display them in a clear vase or place anywhere in the home that desperately needs a splash of colour.
