Easy Fall Decorating Ideas
This post may contain affiliate links.
So I am getting ready to update my house decor for fall and have been looking for some fall decorating ideas. I purchased two small bag of leaves from a craft store and I wanted to share a few things I did with them to make the house ready for the season.
Fall decorating with candles
I found a glass container and a store bought candle,
I put the candle in the container, then added leaves around the outside of the candle container.
Please keep in mind that all the leaves are well below the flame level.

Next, I tied a brown ribbon around my bath towels,

Then I took a few leaves and stapled them to a twisty tie (you know the kind you get with trash bags or from the produce section?
then secured the stapled leaves to the ribbon with the twisty tie for a nice autumn touch in the bathroom.
Kitchen Ideas
Next, I took a few leaves that were left and laid them around a bowl of apples. Now it feels a little more like fall, at least inside the house. I hear cooler weather is coming soon.
Next, I am going to add pumpkins. Have you used leaves for decorating?
What great ways of simple little updates with a big impact! So festive!
Thanks for your sweet comment Kim!
I really love the simplicity of your fall decorating! I have a strand of leaves that I place over some of our doorways but with 2 kittens in the house that may be asking for my trouble and so I may need to find some different ways to decorate this year.
Aw, two kittens in the house do sound like trouble, but fun trouble! Thanks for stopping by!
Very cute! I’m headed to the craft store today to look for some fall inspiration! Thank you so much for joining us at the CHQ Blog Hop this week! We hope you’ve made some new bloggy friends!
Thanks and have fun at the craft store! 🙂

I love the idea of using fall leaves in centerpieces! I have a particularly curious toddler, so I might use a plastic vase instead of glass, but overall I think your idea will help create a festive fall fealling in my house. Thanks!
Good idea Emily! Thanks for stopping by and for your comment.
Love the leaves and the floating candle! Looks very fall like… I need to do something around my house as well.
Thanks so much for sharing those easy ideas. I love simple! And just happened to decorate my house with fall decor today! I have a lot of cloth-stuffed pumpkins. I have fall leaves on a strand…I wrap them around a mirror in the entry and another strand goes across the top of our bookcases in the living room. I love this time of year! The colors…the food…the cooler temps…I love it all. So happy to see your ideas.
Oh the cloth pumpkins sound so cute! Love the idea of leaf strands too! Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. I am ready for cooler too!

Wow! I usually don’t decorate much for fall, but you made it look so easy, I might even tackle it this year!
Visiting from Saturday Sharefest!
I love changing up my home with the seasons. The bowl of apples has to be my favorite. My husband and I go apple picking each year, and we usually have more than we can fit in the refrigerator, so using them to decorate is going to be great.
Thank you for stopping by! I love apples 🙂
Very pretty! I have never decorated for any season but Christmas but I appreciate it when others do. I not particularly gifted with decorating so I’d just have to copy all your ideas!
LOL Patty – that’s what I am here for 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome ideas! And so simple & easy to do!

I love fall colors and decorations! Thanks for sharing so many great ideas! (Stopping by from SITS and adding this post to my pinterest page!)
Beautiful. And so simple.
I don’t decorate. To me, it’s just creating a mess I’ll have to clean up later. I do love appreciating the efforts of others, though. I love to see other people’s houses all dolled up. It sounds like yours is a lovely piece of fall. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Sharefest. Have a great weekend.
Thank you for stopping by and for your comment! Hope your weekend is great too!
