Fall Decorations with Flowers and Leaves

Autumn is such a colorful season and decorating the house can be easy and inexpensive. Colorful flowers of yellow and orange with a variety of brown, yellow and red foliage arranged in just about any kind of vase make nice centerpieces. I enjoy looking at how creative my neighbors decorate their homes and porches for the fall season.

  • Yellow, brown and orange mums often go on sale in the fall. Placed in a basket, a ceramic pot or autumn colored gift baskets, mums are just a natural. Clustered with pumpkins on the porch, two or three pots of mums make for an inviting welcome.
  • Fall leaves of various colors, sizes and shapes on a table runner with small pumpkins and a centerpiece of fall flowers and candles make for a festive table.
  • Various door wreaths of fall leaves, flowers, gourds, and berries adorn my neighbors' doors.
  • And of course, there are the carved pumpkins and black and orange decorations for Halloween.
I don't have to come up with original ideas. I can just copy my neighbors' creations as they outdo themselves year after year.
