Let's face it, if you're on Pinterest, you've seen about 100 million pictures of Fall decorating ideas in the last month.
(Ok, so maybe I'm exaggerating a little on the number, but I'm close!)
So many fabulous ideas out there, but I've come to the conclusion recently, that I'm not a super "crafty" kind of person. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE seeing what crafty people can create - I'm amazed at what some of you can create with a glue gun and some twine.
I have found that I'm more simple and subtle in the way I decorate. I love using natural elements. I love the rich colors and textures of nature, and I appreciate the environmental factor as well.
So, I've decided to put together a few round-ups of inspiration for decorating with natural elements.
First up:
Dried Corn Wreath
Corn Husk Wreath (with tutorial)
Corn Cob Centerpiece
(Pottery Barn also has this as Vase Filler)
Corn Husks
as part of an indoor vignette
or as flanking your front porch.

Popcorn Kernel Wreath
I thought this one was pretty clever, and although I'm not a big fan of wreaths, I could totally see this one in my house!

Corn Cob Swag
This would be the perfect alternative to a wreath on the front door, or even on a cabinet door like the one pictured below.

I am actually surprised at all of the cool ideas there were for decorating with CORN of all things! Gorgeous colors and such great texture. I'm definitely using at least one of these ideas in my house. (Any guesses as to which??)

I LOVE decorating with corn and usually do a corn swag on the front door. Thanks for the other fun ideas! I especially love the corn husk wreath and candle centerpiece. If I can find some inexpensive corn, I'm all over it!!
ReplyDeleteI love these ideas--they look great, but I personally worry about attracting mice/rats. They can smell corn far in advance!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great roundup! I love natural elements! They are so warm and inviting!
ReplyDeleteMy old house backs up to a corn field. I could have used many of their scraps to make all of these. You have a great collection of pictures. I love to use moss in my decorating.
ReplyDeleteI NEVER would have thought of using corn in this way. The pieces are truly striking!
ReplyDeleteLove all the different was you used corn. Thanks!
