Frugal Fall Decor Ideas

Want to decorate for fall but short on funds? These fall decorating ideas are budget-friendly and easy to make. 

At the first sign of fall, I’m ready to start decorating. My house always feels so cozy after I put out fall decorations. Even as a kid I loved decorating for seasons and holidays.

This year I have a new home to decorate. This, of course, has me wanting new decorations. I’ve bought some but decor can get pretty pricey and I still need everyday decor for my home so I don’t want to spend too much on the seasonal stuff.

Thanks to Pinterest it’s now easier than ever to find fall decorations you can make yourself. Some can still get pricey but there are also a lot of frugal ideas out there.

If like me you already have a lot of craft supplies on hand it can make the projects even more affordable. You can also almost always find a 40% off one item coupon from Michaels if you need to pick up more supplies. Amazon sometimes has some affordable craft supplies as well.

Some of the crafts I’ve found, use things you find in nature, which is a great way to save money and be more eco-friendly. Just be sure to clean the things you find, pine cones for one can hide bugs so be sure to prepare pine cones properly.
