Fall decorating ideas to make yourself

Fall decorating ideas with natural materials

Buy foam balls and start attaching potpourri pieces around them with a hot glue gun. Overlap the decorative pieces to completely cover the foam ball. Place the balls in individual glass vases, on decorative plates or all together in a large bowl. If you wish, you can add a few drops of aromatic oil from time to time. You can mix dried potpourri or use other dry materials such as leaves, colored foliage, shells, dried fruit, mini pine cones, nuts and so on.
