Dollar Tree DIY Farmhouse Fall Pumpkins

Dollar Tree DIY Farmhouse Fall Pumpkins Dollar Tree DIY Farmhouse Fall Pumpkins

Happy Friday!

We are already about to enter the first weekend of September – this is just crazy right?!

Today my kiddos had picture day at school and I sent them off dressed up as cute as can be… let’s just hope they choose not to fake smile today… or spill food on themselves before they take them. ??

Either way, it’s another great day for a DIY… a Dollar Tree DIY, that is!

And this one is super simple.

*Some of the links below are affiliate links. Please see full disclosure for me information*

All you need are the following:

  • Dollar Tree pumpkins
  • Raffia
  • Glue gun

You can choose any size or shape you want for this.

Video tutorial is on my Youtube channel as well as at the end of this post for your convenience.

Then, you are going to remove the stem from the pumpkin and unravel the raffia bundle.

RELATED: Fall Farmhouse Tablescape

Take your glue gun and glue one end of the raffia pieces to the center top.

Then begin wrapping it around the pumpkin covering up all the creases of the pumpkin adding a dab of glue here and there to hold it together.

Continue the process until you have done all the creases. Get more raffia pieces as you need them.

Then after all of the  creases are done. Cut smaller pieces of raffia and bundle them together. Begin to glue them down to fill in the areas in between the creases.

Continue to do this until you have covered the entire pumpkin.

Then finally glue the stem back on. You will have to cut the little piece of plastic that juts out underneath the stem because it won’t penetrate the raffia, however the hot glue gun will hold it just fine.

And there you have it! Some really cute farmhouse inspired pumpkins from the Dollar Tree!

The great thing about these is that they are neutral and will go with any color scheme you choose for this season.

And if you don’t want to use the original pumpkin stems you can use branches or make your own out of air clay like the large one below.

Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape


Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape Pin Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape

Happy Tuesday! Today I am excited that I get to join in on another amazing blog hop with 24 other talented bloggers. As you may already know, my first time joining was this summer when Kendra over at Joy In Our Home invited me for the Summer Blog Hop. I decorated and shared my coastal mantle decor for it at the time.

This time we have another great line-up and today I am sharing my Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape… with some seriously inexpensive items and some fun DIY’s.

But before I start, below is an overview of what is being shared this week.

Don’t forget to head to the end of my post so you know which blog to head over to next and see the rest of the line-up for this week!

Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape

As for my table…  I always remembered my mom having our dinner table set up perfectly for each season and I always wondered why. Now that I have my own home I can tell you it is so much fun to put these together and when I am done, a huge sense of satisfaction fills me and I feel so proud that I was able to create something so beautiful for such a fun occasion.

Thanks mom. I understand.

Now, I will say one thing I was never really into (unlike mom) was tablecloths. I find them to be unnecessary, too long and just outdated. However, there is something nice about going to an expensive restaurant with white linens on the tables.

So I decided to try my own hand at making one (that I would like of course). And I came up with this sweet version below.

It’s short and fits my table perfectly. And the cute ruffles give it that sweet country/farmhouse style.

Like it?

No worries! I will be sharing how you can make for yourself soon!

As for the place setting…. I have 2 words…. Dollar Tree.

Yup!

Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape 1 Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape

The white charger, the gray plate and the pumpkin were all from Dollar Tree. I actually used those chargers in my rustic glam Christmas table setting from last year.

The plates are new at Dollar Tree right now. That pumpkin was not so pretty. They used to look like this:

IMG 8308 Neutral Farmhouse Fall Tablescape

So I spray painted them in the same color I spray-painted my DIY Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray…. Rustoleum’s Metallic Series spray paint in Vintage Copper.

The napkins were from my mom (thanks mom!) and the striped fabric charger underneath the white charger I sewed just like the ones I did in this tutorial.

The water glasses were also from Dollar Tree, gosh I love that store!

Tip: If you like any of these Dollar Tree products, but haven’t seen them in your store, you can order them online and have them shipped to your store for FREE!

Recognize that little stand the white center pumpkin is on?

Yep, that was another one of my DIY’s. You can make one yourself here.

The candles and candlesticks were again from Dollar Tree. I got really lucky with those candles, they are the perfect color to match my pumpkins.

The greenery was a mix from Wal Mart and Dollar Tree and the pumpkins were accumulated over the years.

I am totally loving the grey and copper colors I picked this year. It seemed like a crazy color combo, but I think it totally works!

Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray

Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray

I don’t think I have ever made so many Fall DIY’s in one season… and here’s another one!

I showed a sneak peak of this tray in my last post when I shared my Dollar Tree succulent pumpkin planters.  I decided to continue a neutral color scheme for Fall this year, but at the same time I wanted to add a pop of copper which I find so elegant and really works well with the season.

Never did I imagine it would go so well with grey buffalo check! I mean, look how cute everything looks and how well my buffalo check mini stand goes with it!

Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray 2 Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray

And just like that little stand, I painted the buffalo check onto the glass of an 11 x 14 inch picture frame I got at the Dollar Tree. The only difference is that this time, I had to work backwards. Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray 1 Dollar Tree Buffalo Check Tray

*Some links below are affiliate links* 

And those little handles… they were made with some dowels I had leftover from my Pottery Barn Mirror Dupe. 

The spray paint I used was Rustoleum’s Metallic Series spray paint in Vintage Copper.

And since I already shared the step by step for a traditional buffalo check paint I thought it would be best to share a video of this process since we do have to work backwards and it might get a little confusing…

So grab yourself a cup of coffee, tea, glass of wine (I won’t judge) and enjoy my video below!



Let me know what colors you would pick for your tray in the comment below!

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

*Some of the following links are affiliate links, go here for full disclosure*

Happy weekend everyone! I have another fall DIY for you all and I am really excited about this one. I made these DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planters and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.

Okay, so what better way to add some greenery to Fall than to add it to some Dollar Tree pumpkins… super inexpensive and easy to make… 2 things I love the most!

The main items you will need are:

  • Dollar Tree Carvable Pumpkins (they are out in stores right now, but you can always order them online and get them shipped to your local store for FREE)
  • Dollar Tree Succulents
  • A carving tool (but you can also use the little carving kits at Dollar Tree)
  • Paint of your choice – I used Rustoleum’s Chalked Paint in Linen White and Aged Gray (I use those a lot… like in my Pottery Barn mirror dupe and my Dollar Tree Pumpkin Topiaries 
  • Floral Foam 
  • Floral Moss 
  • Hot Glue Gun and Glue 

So the first thing you want to do is get a carvable pumpkin from Dollar Tree.

Oh and as always you can view the video tutorial here, if videos are your jam! ?



 

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 2 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

I happened to have an unfinished one from last year that I had already started painting so I decided to use that one. I went ahead and carved out the top.

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 3 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

Then I painted it with my favorite white chalk paint  and added floral foam to the inside. I made sure to secure it with hot glue.

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 4 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

I then added the floral moss, adhering it with hot glue as well.

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 5 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

Finally you just add your Dollar Tree succulents and arrange them whichever way you like! I used several I had from Dollar Tree and a few other from Michael’s that I was able to purchase during their 80% off end of summer floral sale. I even got some for only 80 cents!

Also, if you don’t have these carvable pumpkins you can also use regular foam ones and not even carve them.

Just paint them or leave them as is.

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter  DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

 

Glue the floral moss on the top and make a hole for your succulent picks (if the hole of the stem you removed is not large enough).

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 9 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

Then add your succulent picks!

DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter 10 DIY Dollar Tree Fall Succulent Pumpkin Planter

I love how you can make them in all shapes, colors and sizes!

Eek! Now I want to fill my house with these! Which one is your fave? Would you leave the colors as is or would you paint yours as well?

Oh, and if you like that cute little buffalo check tray… stay tuned, cause I am going to show you how to make that next! It pairs so well with my mini buffalo check stand that you can display pumpkins on… like these!

DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand Pin DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

 

Hello friends! Can you believe it is September already!??!? Holy moly! Before you know it we will be trick-or-treating and then saying “Thanks” and then opening presents….. Okay, I need to pace myself.  Ha!

But you get the drift, time is flying!

And with that we need to start changing things up at home… and by that I mean we need to start our Fall decorating.

And what better way to display your Fall decor than on a cute buffalo check mini stand….

You know I love buffalo check, right? I mean I re-did my littlest’s bedroom and I painted one entire wall in buffalo check!If you haven’t seen that transformation you definitely must, cause you will be in buffalo check heaven, just sayin’!

Okay, this tutorial is much smaller in scale so I thought I would walk you through it again in case you have been dying to learn how to paint buffalo check…

Here goes!

DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

So, for this mini stand I got an unfinished candlestick from Michael’s and an unfinished wood round from Hobby Lobby. DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

I glued them together with wood glue. I made sure to hold the candlestick in place with painters tape to ensure it would stay put and in the center.

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 1 2 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

Once it was dry I painted the top with Rustoleum Chalked paint in White Linen (the same one I used for my Pottery Barn Mirror Dupe) and the base with Chalked paint in Aged Gray.

Once I did that I used painters tape to tape out the stripes.

For my daughter’s room I started from the middle and worked my way out with the stripes, but since this was so small and simple, I just placed a piece of tape at the end and with my fabric tape measure I measured the width of the tape and spaced out the rest of the stripes so they were all the same size.

DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 1 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

Once all of the tape was on I painted the stripes with the Aged Gray.

I gave it 2 coats and removed the tape.

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 3 2 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

Once the paint was dry, I added painters tape in a perpendicular direction to the stripes already in place.

 

***Also, if at any point this seems a little confusing, you can always check out my video tutorial below…***



Once they were secure, I painted those stripes with the same gray paint.

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 4 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

 

This time you keep that tape in place. DO NOT remove it!

You will now place painters tape to the original vertical lines from before, but ON TOP of the existing tape. This will isolate the intersections (or squares) of both of the lines.

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

Then you will paint it a darker gray (or color of choice).

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 6 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for Fall

Once you are done, simply remove the tape one layer at a time and touch up any areas necessary. I like to use a small square artist brush.

IY Buffalo Check Mini Stand 8 DIY Buffalo Check Mini Stand for FallAnd that’s it!

You now have a cute & neutral, DIY buffalo check mini stand for Fall! You can put pumpkins on it or any other Fall decor piece. If you don’t prefer gray, that’s okay, you can totally customize it to suit your decor color scheme.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

*Some of the links below are affiliate links, for full disclosure please go here*

Yesterday morning I woke up to a little bit cooler weather and I cannot say how excited I was… I’m sure it will go back up to hot summer temps in a couple of days, but the cooler morning breeze was so nice to get out to.

With that we are all getting ready to decorate for fall and enjoy those long awaited holidays we all love to celebrate.

I decided to get a head start and start creating some neutral fall decor for the house…. of course, sticking to a tight budget.

You know I love Dollar Tree (and even decorated an entire Thanksgiving tablescape last year with their items), so I was so excited because their decor just keeps getting better and better every year. I decided to create these cute little neutral DIY farmhouse pumpkin topiaries with some of their new fall decor and some items I had left over in my craft room.

Each one cost me less than $3 to make and they were so easy…

Here is what you will need:

  • Dollar Tree pumpkins in 3 different sizes
  • Dollar Tree terra-cotta pots
  • Paint of choice, I love this chalk paint for projects like this
  • Twine
  • Moss
  • Glue gun

 

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 1 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

 

I had this chalk paint leftover from my Look for Less DIY Pottery Barn mirror DUPE and a sample I purchased months ago.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 2 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

 

As always you can view the tutorial below:



 

I painted the pots in the white chalk paint, making sure to paint the rims and then hot-glued the moss on the edges.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 5 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

I removed the stems and tags from the 2 larger pumpkins.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 3 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

I didn’t like the yellow tone of the white pumpkins so I painted them with the same white chalk paint and then I painted the small pumpkins as well. I made sure to apply at least 2 coats.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 4 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

When all were dry I was ready to assemble my topiary. I started with the largest pumpkin…

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 6 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

Then before adding the white pumpkin I added some twine to give it more texture.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 7 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

I then hot-glued it to the large pumpkin.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 8 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

After that I glued the smallest pumpkin.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 9 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

And then I added more moss to cover the gap between the white and blue pumpkin and also to tie it all together.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 10 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

And that was it! I decided to create 2 topiaries since they were so inexpensive and I just love how they turned out.

DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries 11 DIY Farmhouse Pumpkin Topiaries

They are about 10.5″ in height so they are perfect for placing on an entry table of coffee table or even on some shelves. Plus, the best thing about them is that you can make them in any color?

Which colors do you prefer for Fall? Are you going traditional or changing it up this year?

I would love to hear what you think about these little topiaries!

Dollar Tree Fall Decor

DIY Fall Decor Dollar Tree Fall Decor

*This post may contain some affiliate links for your convenience. For full disclosure you may go here.*

I totally meant to get this out sooner, however, all 3 of my kids have been battling Hand Foot & Mouth disease that my oldest contracted from school and my week was a hot mess.

So now that fall is in full swing in our house and I have my table setting all ready to go for Thanksgiving, I figure I would go ahead and share a couple of other simple and inexpensive décor pieces that can be made in less than a couple of hours (that you can do with those leftover Dollar Tree pumpkins you may have lying around).

I will be creating 2 small fall decor pieces that can be used as either centerpieces or accent pieces throughout your home.

Dollar Tree Fall Decor Product list…

1st arrangement:

  • A carvable pumpkin
  • Candle holder – I used this tea light mason jar 
  • Craft paint
  • A bundle of artificial flowers
  • Pencil or Pen
  • Paintbrush

Check out the video tutorial below!

Instructions:

For the first piece you will need to use the candleholder and trace the bottom of it to the top of the pumpkin. Carve it out. You want the candleholder (in this case I used a mason jar) to fit snuggly inside.

Tip: If you cut the hole too large and the candleholder sits too low, you can take the piece of pumpkin you removed and hot glue it to the inside bottom of the pumpkin. It will elevate the candleholder and keep it in place.

Next you want to paint the pumpkin. I used acrylic paint. It adhered well and dried fast, plus if you don’t have any on hand they are super inexpensive.

1 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

I used a blue-green on the bottom 2 layers, then added white chalk paint to give it a more neutral weathered look. Make sure to keep the strokes long and vertical.

2 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

Then once it was dry I cut the flowers from the fall bush and inserted that along the top edge of the pumpkin, spacing them out evenly along the open boarder.

4 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

Once all were in I added the candleholder and candle and I was done!

7 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

2nd piece:

  • A carvable pumpkin
  • Floral foam
  • Paint
  • A bundle of fall artificial flowers
  • Pine cones
  • Small twigs
  • Pencil or Pen
  • Paintbrush

 

For this piece, I started the same way… cutting out the top and painting.

Then I cut down some floral foam and hot glued it to the bottom inside of the pumpkin.

3 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

I gathered some twigs from the yard and painted them with white chalk paint. Once they were dry I added them along with some pinecones, flowers and a small white pumpkin from my last project I did. Whatever I could not insert into the foam I adhered with hot glue.

5 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

And that was basically all there was to it.

6 Dollar Tree Fall Decor

The good thing about this one is that you can arrange the flowers and twigs any way you want. You can make the fall arrangement tall or short, make it extra blingy or use vibrant colors or keep them neutral.

Either way you have another unique and really simple and inexpensive project for fall!

And since I already had the paint and brushes, both projects on cost me about $4 each!

Plus, who would even think there were Dollar Tree fall decor pieces anyway?

O.M.Goodness!

The days are going faster and faster it feel like! Before you know it will be Thanksgiving. But hey! At least, I already have my thanksgiving table setting good and ready to go!

It has been pretty crazy around these parts with still settling in with the move, my stock photography business over at BossLatina and my newest adventure YouTube (not to mention my 2 oldest are going to school now). So I have been looking forward to this part of the year, even though Georgia is holding on tight to the summer weather.

Seriously, can we get some cooler weather and actually keep it!? 

Related: DIY Fall Farmhouse Centerpiece 

If you have been following me for some time you know that I look forward to the holidays. As my kids get older they tend to enjoy them more and more each year.

So, I was thinking, we as moms have so many lists in our lives… Grocery lists, To-do lists, Honey do lists. 😉

And while they are super useful and great at keeping us moms on schedule and our households running smoothly, it seems like these lists are always so serious and boring!

So I thought, I want to make a different kind of list.

A FUN LIST.

Of all the things we can do as a family to better enjoy the fall season (and hopefully cooler weather).

So I created the list above for my family and wanted to share it for yours.

I have included both things that kids and adults would enjoy so even singles and couples with fur babies can participate in my Fall Bucket List Free Printable.

Just sign up below and get your Printable instantly!

????????????????????????

Cause I mean, who doesn’t friggin’ love Hocus Pocus? C’mon! 

One thing I wanted to include in my list (that no other Fall Bucket List has, just sayin’) is “Donate Gently Used Toys”.

Think about it! It is the perfect time to get your kids to help others in need (by donating gently used and often neglected toys to either Goodwill, local churches, or shelters) making room for the new toys they are about to get for Christmas.

It’s a WIN-WIN for a greater cause!

PRINT.

AND STICK ON YOUR FRIDGE.

Now get to checking off those boxes and start having a wonderful Fall season!

DIY Farmhouse Fall Centerpiece

DIY Farmhouse FAll Centerpiece DIY Farmhouse Fall Centerpiece*some of the following like may be affiliate inks for your convenience*

Hey there friends! I know it has been a while since I have been here, but there are so many things going on in the background that I cannot wait to share with you very soon! My house still has many unpacked boxes here and there and the temps here are still way too hot to be considered Fall, ugh!

But, I am excited to start decorating my home for the holidays, especially since we got our first big project out of the way. 

So, I have this cute DIY Farmhouse Fall Centerpiece that I want to share with you all. I just made it for my formal dining room and I thought I would share the process in a short video for you all!

It’s perfect for you if you like that Farmhouse look and you prefer not spending too much money in making your holiday decor. I don’t know about you but I love to go all out during the holidays, but my wallet doesn’t. ?

This is a fun centerpiece because I didn’t make anything permanent so you have the flexibility of removing everything and making it different the following year OR you can just use the items for other things throughout the house.

A Little About Your Latina

My name is Yami. I'm a wife, mother of 3 beautiful children and of course, your Latina next door. If you're my neighbor you will most likely here a sander, drill or a can of spray paint hard at work at any given moment (with some salsa playing the background of course). I'm grateful that I get to stay at home and document all the little, BIG or just down crazy things I come up with to make my house a home. I would love for you to join me on this adventure!

Instagram post 17989736140281571 This year I am thankful...
To God. 🙏🏼 He has been so generous to my family and I. Nothing would be if it wasn’t for Him
🍂
For my husband. 🧔🏻 We have grown so much in the 9 years of marriage. And now we are embark on a whole new journey and there’s no one else I could imagine doing this with.
🍂
For my children. 👱🏻‍♀️👦🏻👧🏻 They are the force behind everything I do. They make me want to be a better mom, or just a better person... they are sweet, funny, understanding and so darn cute.
🍂
For my parents who are ALWAYS there for me and the Latino Engineer. They have been our support team since day 1. They help guide us and cheer us on. They love my husband like their own son and I couldn’t ask for more.
🍂
For YOU all. I would have never thought that this would be my calling. All I knew was that I wanted to share what I was most passionate about, but I never thought it would be so lovingly received. I have such a kind and genuinely caring familia here. You bring me so much joy. I look forward to spending more time with you all here and growing together as a familia.
🍂
Thank you for everything.

Instagram post 17905748185380205 Enjoying some time at my mom’s over the weekend with my kiddos while the hubby and my dad work on some demo back at the house.
Here’s a throwback to one of last year’s  @dollartree DIYs. This little vignette was so easy to make, you can find the tutorial on my channel. Just click the link in bio. .

Instagram post 18087089770127867 Happy Saturday. Hope everyone is having a good day so far. I’m currently in the hospital with my son who is having an MRI and frankly I feel more sick than him.
😩🚑
So I’ll just be here...
Waiting...
Patiently...
Until he’s done.
In other news, I was able to share a recent @dollartree DIY on my channel. It felt like it had been forever since I shared one.
I made these cute farmhouse “storage” books with some Halloween boxes from Dollar Tree (👉🏼swipe to see the before 💀 ).
These are a perfect DIY gift 🎁 for the holidays. They can be filled with sweet treats 🍬 or keepsakes 💍👓 and they’re super simple to make.
What do you think? Could you have guessed these were from Halloween?

Instagram post 17852886004666864 I’m not sure what I love most, the tree all trimmed up with diy and @dollartree ornaments or the view beyond the windows of all the trees with their changing leaves 🍁 
Either way, I love the view.
I spent most of the day cleaning and decluttering, still have a lot to do, but I feel accomplished.
Hubby is working late today, and I might just get some take out and cuddle up with the kids in the sunroom watching some @disneyplus tonight.
Sounds perfect 😍
What are your plans?

Instagram post 17857640713613869 My little helper over here was adding her own little touch while I was decorating my Twinkly Tree #ad
I couldn’t wait to get it up and decorated (even though my sunroom isn’t finished).
Have you seen it yet? I used all of my previous farmhouse DIY ornaments and a few from @dollartree
The Twinkly tree is pretty cool and is controlled by an app on my phone. 😱📱
