Stick a wire basket into a tomato cage for this BRILLIANT porch idea!

you'll want to head to the Home Depot for a large tomato cage and the Dollar Tree for three wire planter baskets when you see how cool this summer hack turned out now I'm preparing all three wire baskets to fit inside the tomato cage at the bottom and the two upper Rings the very top wires of the tomato cage can be cut off however I'm going for something a little more decorative I'm pinching wire cutters around the base of the top wire then gently bending the wire towards the floor now I'm moving the bent wire to the the left slipping it into the next section of the cage then tucking the end in so it stays in place to get a full grown look right away I am using three hanging flower baskets and removing their basket hooks the basket of flowers is being placed into a wire basket with the clips attached then I'm positioning them both on top of a tall slim stool I'm using a plant pot to raise the level of The Flower Basket so it reaches the third ring then clipping the wire basket to the cage next I'm picking up the tomato cage and gently placing it over top of the bottom Flower Basket with a gentle rotation so the flowers don't break I'm placing a wire basket into the top of the tomato cage then using zip ties to attach them together now I'm placing flowers in the very top basket to complete the look which results in a gorgeous full-grown looking three tiered flower stand offering loads of height and a fabulous punch of color I just love how the black tomato cage and the flower baskets offset the Vivid red and green making quite an eye-catching display while this flower stand looks right at home beside my garden shed I love that you have the ability display it anywhere you wish so I grabbed this tomato cage and I took some bare premium black matte spray paint and I took it outside and I spray painted just the vertical poles of the tomato cage once the spray paint was fully dry and I cut off the top portion of my tomato cage I then came in with some very heavy J twine you just start at one spot on the circle and you just lay your juk twine over top and hold it there until the hot glue sets once the hot glue sets you just take the Jew twine and you wrap it all around the circle and then I just finish it off by securing it with a bit of hot glue and then I'm going to go ahead and repeat the process on the other side of the tomato cage this is my finished tomato cage plant stand I actually made two to have an elevated look for my fall moms and my fall porch so for the base of this project I'm using an apple basket and in the bottom of this we're just going to put some rocks now inside the basket just going to take a flower pot now we're going to place the tomato cage I'm just going to use a couple of zip ties to attach the handles of the Apple basket to the side of the tomato cage we're going to pull the top up here together so actually the bottom of the tomato cage and use a little floral wire to twist around there and hold it together starting at the bottom we're going to use just sections of inexpensive of Garland like this to wrap our topiary now we'll come back and kind of fluff all these pieces up to make it look like a nice full topiary so we're just going to take a set of white lights and string these around the tree a roll of burlap it's a really nice ribbon to go around we could add some different color ribbons or some beautiful flowers a tree that can work all through fall so now let's turn this into a tree that's going to work for winter so I'm going to start with some pieces of this wired silver ribbon we're going to take some floral pics and we're just going to stick these in around the tree can also use some other Greenery like this kind of a frosted look and some pine cones I hope you are inspired to go create your own DIY topiary First grab a plastic pot in a tomato cage cut down the tomato cage to size next weigh down the pot with a large Rock Brick or other filler then attach the tomato cage after that grab a pipe cleaner and cut it in half pinch together the top of the tomato cage and twist around to create a point next add some LED lights you want to make sure they're led to avoid a fire hazard after that grab some green decco mesh pinch it together and attach with pipe [Music] cleaners after that grab a red bow and thread pipe cleaners through it to tie to the top of the tree next grab some ornament hooks and add them to the bulbs twisting them into the deco mesh these little trees are the perfect way to brighten up your front porch or a dark corner of your home that needs a little holiday cheer after Christmas remove the green deco mesh for a winter tree removing the deco mesh and Bulbs is easy since the bulbs are twisted into the mesh it comes off in one piece all you have to do is Twist Off the pipe cleaners next reattach the top of the cage using a white pipe cleaner after that Twist on white deco mesh just like we did with the green add a white bow and some snowflakes for a winter treat that will last all season I hope this inspires you to brighten up your home this winter with these cheerful topiaries first thing I did was took a tomato cage I cut up the top two rings take these three ends with a pipe cleaner and just secure them really well and now I have my craft chicken wire which I'm going to take and secure around the bottom here I've taken some pipe cleaners and cut them into thir and I'm just going to start right here and attach them like so so I've attached a chicken wire all the way around the bottom and now I'm going to cut off the excess and attach it as we go up we're going to take this part and add it to the top although we will just need a little bit of it and we have a tree shape and what we're going to do now is just wrap these around and they have wire in them so you can just use the wire that is in them to secure it and then just start wrapping our whole tree when you get to the end you're just going to take that little wire in there right in there pull it in and hook it and now I'm going to dress it up with some uh fancier evergreens and I'm just going to add some of them throughout our tree and I thought this would make a really nice base there we go I'm all ready for Christmas so I have my tomato cage here so I'm going to take a piece of pipe cleaner here and I'm going to take the three ends of my tomato cage and bringing them together I'm going to attach them and hold them together using the pipe cleaner so we're just going to wrap that around there and now we have our ends tied together so my Garland actually has a wire inside the Garland so it's bendable and it keeps its shape so I'm just going to start at one of the vertical pieces of the tomato cage and I'm just going to wrap my Garland around there so I'm just tying it on really tight around this vertical piece here okay and then I'm going to begin intertwining the Garland through the vertical pieces of the tomato cage I'm just going to use a small piece of wire here and I'm going to attach the Garland to the tomato cage so that it stays in place so I'm going to continue to wrap my Garland leaves around my tomato cage until I've used all of them now that we have all five garlands on now I also have some Leaf picks here here and what we can do with these is anywhere where there are large gaps or big holes where the Garland is just missing slide up in and fill in those gaps so all we have to do is Slide the stick in and then just take a little piece of wire and wire the stick up to the top of the tomato cage I'm going to continue working my way around here pulling in these extra leaves I'm just going to take the body of my gnome and I'm just going to set it off to the side and now we're going to make a hat so what I need to do here is I need to cut a 20 in x 20 in square so we're going to take the one corner of our Fabric and we're going to fold it up now we are going to take our hot glue and we are only going to glue down one side of the fabric then we're going to take our piece of fabric and we're going to fold it back over make sure we push down really well so I'm just going to take my fabric scissors and starting about here and I'm going to do a nice nice semicircle cut now that our glue is all set we're going to turn our hat inside right and then to get that nice tip point I'm going to use just the end of a pencil here and I'm going to stick it up and push all that fabric out and then to pretty my hat up a bit because I couldn't find a nice fall pattern fabric that I like I just picked up this felt Garland here and I am just going to put that around my hat I'm just going to use some hot glue here then when I worked my way to the back of the Hat I can just cut off the remaining Garland to make the nose for my gnome I'm going to be using a pair of nylons and I'm just going to cut it right at the top of the leg and then I'm going to take some cotton fuzz and I'm going to stuff it into my nylon and then I'm going to take these two outside pieces here the long pieces of the nylon and I'm going to wrap them around the back of the fuzz and then I'm just going to tie them in a very tight knot then I'm going to cut off this excess here and then we have our adorable plump Little Gnome nose placing the hat is super easy you just have to slide it over the top of the tomato cage so we're just going to place it on here and then kind of fix it up so that it looks nice and then we are going to apply our nose so I just use a piece of floral wire and I stick it through the back side of the nose and then I slide that wire into the tomato cage and wrap it around one of the horizontal pieces of the tomato cage and then I just tuck the wire in and behind I have this nice stem here that I got and I'm just going to add this for a little bit of embellishment and I'm just going to hot glue it and tuck it just inside the Garland around the hat and I seriously you guys I think the fall gnome might be my favorite I love the pop of color with the leaves it adds such a nice fall touch to my porch thank you so much for watching home talk and we'll see you next time I wanted to create a dimensional wood wall I decided to use wood shims I stained the wood shims using a water-based stain I stained the shims in varying degrees some with just one light coat and others with up to seven coats to make them nice and dark I started attaching the stained wood shims to the wall using construction adhesive I found it best to first place the long pieces in a random pattern on the wall and then overlay these with the shorter pieces this way I was building up the wall dimensionally as well as varying the color throughout there were some gaps between the pieces and so I had to cover these with smaller pieces at the end when it came to the light switch on the wall I just worked right up to the switch and then the wall was done for 2 days worth of work and about $120 in materials I was able to transform this wall into something that I really love if you have damaged walls like I did this budget friendly repair requires no drywall skills whatsoever I ran down to the hardware store and picked up two sheets of beadboard then I measured and cut the bead board down to size I attached it to the wall with my nail gun The Next Step was to to add a wood border to the top in order to finish off my beadboard accent I added hooks after that I added my towels and a new shower curtain and my quick little bathroom upgrade was complete first thing I did was grab these brick panels they're about $30 from Lowe's and I'm placing them against the wall next I am nailing the paneling into the wall and of course you could use something like Liquid Nails if you would like however I decided to do nailing since it's a little bit less permanent and won't ruin the drywall underneath now I'm just going to use some spackling that goes from pink to White whenever it's dry and I'm going to fill in all of the seams now I'm mixing various craft paints to match the color of the brick and I'm covering up that white Plaster and using a sponge to add some more texture also going in and lightening the color a little bit and wiping it away overall I just want a lot of variety now in sections I'm going to cover the wall with white paint and then once it's dried a little bit but still a little bit tacky I'm going in with a wet sponge and scraping away a lot of the color so in 48 hours I was able to turn this cold dining room into a warm cozy inviting space and I absolutely love how much character it has now so I headed to the hardware store and picked up some 1x4s I measured the wall and marked out where my boards would go on the wall I made sure it was level and then used a nail gun to attach the boards vertically to the wall now I could measure down for the horizontal boards then I cut the horizontal boards and attached them I cut the board around the outlet area and left plenty of space around it so that I wouldn't have any problem plugging things in in the future I cocked the inside edges of my newly formed accent wall boxes once this dried I sanded down the joints I picked out a blue color that I thought would look soothing in the room and it only cost me $30 that was the cost of the wood since I didn't have to pay for the paint since it something that I reused from a previous project I printed a deer design from my computer and traced it on a clear Ziploc bag I cut a square hole in the cardboard box using a utility knife next I tape the Ziploc bag design over the hole then I place the Box in front of the wall I turned my cell phone light on I put it inside of the box at the opposite end as the design and I close the lid put covers over the windows I trace the design on the wall using a pencil once I was done I turned the lights back on and was ready to paint I was careful to work from Top down and left to right so I didn't smudge the wet paint when it was completely dry I removed the remaining pencil marks with an eraser and damp Rag and here's my stunning wall feature for only the cost of paint it really gave this booknook a wow factor and has made two boys very happy I fell in love with this beautiful floral Fabric and I knew it would be perfect on my office wall we measured the wall to make sure we purchased enough we knew we needed three panels so we had them cut accordingly we started in the corner and used a staple gun to secure the fabric in place after that we use spray adhesive to ensure the fabric was well secured before drying starts gently smooth out all air bubbles don't forget to overlap about an inch with each panel for a smooth transition and line up your patterns as best you can once all panels are hung smooth and staple along the bottom about A4 of an inch above your baseboard using an xacto knife cut fabric starting in the top Corner going down this will help to make sure the fabric does not stretch or tear place your knife between the baseboard and a credit card to help you make the perfect straight line gently cut around any allet using your exactor knife and a credit card and there you have it a fun and easy change to any room [Music] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] right [Music] w [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] w [Music] [Music] o [Music] [Music] o [Music] [Music] [Music] he [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] a [Music] [Music] he [Music] [Music] he [Music] [Music] [Music] we're going to start by using a hot glue gun to glue these forms together after we have them all glued I got a piece of cardboard traced one of the circles and I'm going to cut just inside the line that I drew and you're going to get your hot glue again you'll just want to decide what color you're going to want to paint your form and again you could leave this just as is if you like something a little more simple I like simple sometimes but today I'm just going to take it up a couple notches with some color and I'm just going to draw some shapes on here so what I'm doing is putting a filler piece in the bottom and just popping that guy right on top and we have our DIY flower pots all set up in my daughter's room I think they turned out super cute and they match her room so well on one of my most recent trips to Dollar Tree I came across these glass bowls and as well I spotted these cool margarita glasses I'm going to take some E6000 and I'm going to spread it around on the bottom of the margarita glass and then I'm also going to PL apply some E6000 on the bottom of one of the glass bowls then I'm going to place it on top I'm going to leave this to set in the meantime I'm going to take my second glass bowl and I'm going to take some E6000 and I'm going to take an old drawer pull and then place that on top and then I'm going to let this set as well for 24 hours so this DIY is super easy honestly anyone can do this start to paint your pots and saucers with a matte finish paint or chalk paint take a paper napkin and separate the two ply layers draw a circle and cut it out with scissors take the saucer and brush the decapage glue so the bottom and sides of the saucer are covered place the paper napkin Circle and press down in the center and smooth the napkin out dip a small paintbrush in water and brush along the top of the saucer add a final layer of decapage glue take a strong adhesive glue and place a ring of glue place the saucer on top of the bottom of the pot you now have a beautiful Clay Pot candle holder I saw these lemons recently I grabbed this stick outside I'm going to snip them off the plastic branch that they came on it's time to attach them to my real Branch it's time to add these beautiful faux lemons I want the lemons to look natural so I'm going to attach them under the leaves to keep the tree securely in place I'm going to use some floral foam I'm going to use some of the bright green moss here to cover up that foam my new mini lemon tree adds the perfect pop of color that I was looking for and was a breeze to put together I have some clear plastic Christmas ornaments stuck on some wooden skewers and popped into an old piece of Styrofoam I'm using some kryon Seaglass spray paint and I have some nautical netting and I'm going to put it around the ornaments I'm just using a little hot glue to secure it at the top I'm just going to let the glue set and then I'm going to trim off the tops to finish off our faux nautical floats I'm using um some jice look at them they look like real glass don't they I love this project they're so cute first we're going to spray paint I'm using rum satin heirloom white and rum Stone we're going to take some painters tape you kind of want to rough tear one edge of it we're going to put this along the bottom I'm using a craft paint and I'm just using brushed gold you kind of want to make it look like the the paint is kind of tearing and you can see Underneath It All right so here's the finished product and I absolutely love how they turned out I ran to Dollar Tree and grabbed some of their wood pieces cut one of those in half sand down both of my pieces then I used some wood glue to secure each of the half pieces to the ends of the full piece so I grabbed one of the thinner wood pieces and measured it to fit on the front I cut it again down the center th lengthwise to make two thinner pieces next I grabbed that smaller excess piece that I had set aside and I repeated that process of cutting it lengthwise to make two thinner pieces I used some more wood glue to put all my thinner pieces together in a frame shape I used my drill to pre-drill holes up through the bottom and into the half pieces then I added a small wood screw into each side for extra security once the wood glue was dry I filled in in any gaps with some wood filler and let it sit for about an hour before sanding it down once both pieces were prepped I painted all of them with a couple coats of white latex paint I grabbed a piece of came webbing and placed it into some warm water for about 30 minutes then I removed it from the water and patted it dry and I just cut that down to fit the thinner frame and used my staple gun to attach it and I made sure I was pulling that cane web tight as I was stapling it I used some more wood glue to attach that piece to the front of the larger wood frame I added some heavyduty d-rings to the back and I ended up with this really neat wall shelf that could be used for many different things next time you're at the dollar store grab a large wreath form two small wreath forms and one 3D wreath form assemble the 3D wreath form according to the instructions start to cut the wire rings from each other on the large wreath form and the two small wreath forms take the second to largest ring and place in the center of the wire Globe take two of the second to smallest rings and attach them horizontally between the center ring and the bottom of the globe take the smallest rings and attach them horizontally to each end of the globe securing with floral wire starting at the top of the globe tie a piece of jute twine in a secure knot start to Loop and weave the jute twine over and under once finished with one section skip the section beside it and start to weave the Jud in the next section in the same direction work your way up the globe and weave the jute in every other section once you have the horizontal sections complete start to weave the alternate sections vertically take a light cord and attach it to the top of the globe with the bulb hanging in the center of the globe use a very low wattage bulb that does not get hot hang your woven jute light fixture from a hook on the ceiling and turn on the light separate the layers of a patterned paper napkin cut the paper napkin as needed now we are going to actually iron the paper napkin onto the taper heat an iron to medium low heat not too hot let the candle cool and start to use in your own home decor fill a heat safe container with hot water between 110° place a taper candle in the hot water and let sit for 10 minutes paraffin candle works best for this after 10 minutes pull the candle from the water and then wrap the candle in some wax paper take a rolling pin and press down on the middle of the candle once the middle section is flattened take the candle and gently twist it into the shape that you want when you get the twist that you want place the candle in cold water and this will set the candle in its new shape then have fun displaying your new new Twisted taper candle take painters tape and tape off sections on a taper candle make sure that the edges are pressed on securely on the edges of the tape once taped off paint light coats of acrylic paint in the open sections of the candle in the color or colors of your choice let dry completely try displaying them in odd-numbered groupings and Vary the height of your candlesticks a variety of colors textures and patterns make the display even more interesting and unique I hope this inspired you to have some fun sprucing up ordinary taper candle pick up one or two clear plastic bowls from Dollar Tree use a Sharpie to trace the outline take a wood burning tool to create a hole in the bottom of the bowl take a light kit from Amazon and thread the socket through the hole and add a light bulb a cheap way to create your own DIY pendant lights it's going to require three of these large dinner plates and then three of these little salad plates once you kind to find the design style that you like grabb a dollop of hot glue I'm going to apply a generous amount then we can just secure our plate apply some hot glue and secure it there but now we'll take our third salad plate create about a 4in loop fold our ribbon over pinch in the middle we're just going to snip off our ribbon so apply a generous amount and place our bow right on top of our plates and this is kind of like silver doll eucalyptus place it inside our bow and it does create kind of an unusual wreath frame you want to pick up two bowls and I'm going to give them a coat of spray paint I'm just going to use some really strong glue I am going to add three Wicks then I'm going to grab two wooden skewers Dollar Tree tall pillar candles pour the wax from all the candles into a metal container I'm opting to add a little essential oil and now we're just going to pour that melted wax you can trim the wick down and use your candle I hope this inspired you to grab a ceramic salad bowl head to your local dollar store and pick up a clear plastic bowl a metal flower vase a floral foam square and some faux flowers pull a wood candle lid from a used candle and remove the rubber ring spray paint this candle lid the clear plastic bowl and the metal flower vase use a strong adhesive and glue the candle lid to the bottom of the painted metal vase glue the painted Bowl to the top of the candle lid give the entire footed pedestal bowl a light coat of white spray paint put some hot glue on the four corners of the Square florist foam and glue it to the bottom of the bowl take pieces of faux Greenery and stick them in and around the base next take some Bunches of faux flowers stick the separated flowers into the florist foam if you have any bare spots showing fill those areas with a little green moss place the pedestal floral arrangement on a dollar store charger plate and and Surround it with green moss I hope this inspired you to create a beautiful floral pedestal centerpiece for under $10 you're going to need some Dollar Store solar lights flip the bowl upside down and we need to remove the label next I'm going to focus on the solar light so we just take the stem off we're not even going to need that you need to open up the solar light and pull out the tag so that the solar light works then you can place that back on and this part is ready to be used this will be the base of our project what I'll be using for this project for weight are these Dollar Store rocks so I'm going to be placing them inside for the next step I'm going to place the solar light in top like this I'll go ahead and add a few more rocks to this so what I'm going to do is add a little dab of hot glue on each corner like so I'm going to take that bowl and flip it upside down and place it right there on top so it's centered so just to show you if I remove this out you can see here I would be able to pull this off and replace this easily with another dollar store solar light if this burns out at some point here they are in my dish flower garden and I'm thrilled with how they turned out so we're going to start this project with a platter from Dollar Tree we're going to be using the bath so I'm first going to start by putting the E6000 what we're going to do though is we're going to take the be seads and we're just going to place them right next to one another all right so now that we are finished with the gluing portion what we're going to do next is we're going to be taking Rustoleum chocked paint paint this whole surface we are going to be taking a principle that I have created and then we're going to basically be kind of cutting the edges off and from there we are going to take I have glue I have tacky glue but you can also use Modge Podge going to start by lightly brushing it on the tray you want to make sure that you're like evenly dispersing this so we are going to place it over it with our glue we're going to take an 18in wreath frame we're going to take the loop under we're going to pull it through that you're going to see a knot on the top I'm going to be taking a a ruler we're going to go across all right so we're just going to keep going all the way up and make sure it's centered I'm going to use my hot glue basically just to kind of cover that Gap and here's the after of my Dollar Tree plate DIY boho wreath saw some candles from powdery Barn I thought it'd be fun to try making them myself I'm going to put a little glue into a small container and then add a bit of paint now that I have the glue tinted I'm going to paint it all over the glass dish on the outside I'm going to leave these for a few hours before moving on using some Mod Podge I'm going to paint it around the dishes I can sprinkle the white glitter all over it and then when it dries the glitter will stay in place I grabbed these pillar candles from the dollar store and I'm going to melt them down I'm just going to use a couple of skewers to hold the Wix in place I want to add some essential oil to give my candles a beautiful scent it's time to fill the glass dishes the final thing to do is to remove the skewers and then trim the wick how pretty are these Pottery Barn inspired candles they even smell as good as they look first step is you're going to want to drill a hole for drainage and I'm just going to drill straight into that hole in the middle and then we're going to get our bigger bit and I'm going to take a junk brush to bond with the bowl above it I've got my first strand of beads I'm just G to take these one line at a time and just snip off the extra beads and I'm going to repeat this process I've got the stone texture applied now it's time to go in with my black spray paint and here's a closer look at my DIY beaded flower pot start to paint your pots and saucers with a matte finish paint or chalk paint take a paper napkin and separate the two ply layers draw a circle and cut it out with scissors take the saucer and brush the decapage glue so the bottom and sides of the saucer are covered place the paper napkin Circle and press down in the center and smooth the napkin out dip a small paintbrush in water and brush along the top of the saucer add a final layer of decupage glue take a strong adhesive glue and place a ring of glue place the saucer on top of the bottom of the pot you now have a beautiful Clay Pot candle holder I grabbed some China plates from the thrift store for this really easy Garden project okay this was the really fun part I smashed the plates on a rock and then I set them all aside next I mixed ready mixed concrete with water for specific measurements and safety precautions follow the instructions on the bag I placed a 2-in piece of cardboard tube on top of scrap wood to use as my mold and then I put the first layer of concrete inside I used a scrap 2 by4 to Tamper it down and added three small pieces of wire mesh the wire mesh will add a lot of strength to this I put another layer of concrete on used the wood to Tamper and Trel to smooth it out once it was smooth and level I placed the broken china on top you can have a lot of fun with this part and do any sort of design I used the scrap piece of wood again to Tamper it down making sure that the China was ins set but not sunk in then I used a wet sponge to carefully remove the excess concrete I wiped with this sponge a few times over the next couple of hours after it dried for about 20 hours I removed the cardboard around the outside and placed it in the garden for a beautiful stepping stone I hope this inspired you to create your own thrifted China stepping stone now these colorful bowls you're going to turn it upside down you're going to take that heat tool and just press down and we're going to want to do that to a couple more of these I'm just going to use this to trace we start with one of the blue bowls and one of the clear ones and I'm going to take some gorilla clear grip you're going to want to put this on and then let it sit make sure that you get this exactly right one more Blue Bowl let that sit right there you see how you can see the battery packs down at the base I'm going to take some Ivy see how you can uh disguise that a little bit decided to add a few white poppies and you can see how much light these will bring to a tabletop run to Dollar Tree and grab eight coils of nautical rope I also pick up two of their pumpkin wreath forms I start by adding some hot glue to the wreath form and begin to tightly wrap the Rope around each spoke of the pumpkin I continue doing this for all of the vertical sections I do the same for the other pumpkin now I'm cutting off the excess rope then I use some Thin floral wire to attach both wreath forms together using more hot glue I start from the bottom and wrap the now connected edges with my rope once I have the entire outside of the now three-dimensional pumpkin wrapped I grab some thinner white cotton rope and wrap it around the wonky stem next I place the wrapped pumpkin into a shallow basket so I clip a few of these and I head back inside I just tuck my hydranges into the gaps in the finished pumpkin to lay in the basket I hope this inspired you to bring a little bit of fall into your home this week I picked up these three little wooden crates so I've mixed up some brown milk paint that you just want to water down and I want to make sure that I paint all sides and the inside while my little crates are drying to paint are these little gourds and pumpkins that I picked up at the dollar store so I'm just going to take some of this Pearl metallic paint and I just want to kind of brush it all over these I'm just going to put some hot glue on the ends and I'm just going to slide them together and hold them while they dry I want to add some of this beautiful ribbon that I found so I've gone ahead and made a little cut in the end just to make this a little nicer attach this down I'm just going to take my knife mark off where this would hit the top and I'm just going to trim it a little bit shorter than where that is I am going to put a little bit of the hot glue just a couple dabs down at the bottom and that will hold my piece of foam right down there in place and it's time to start filling those crates with some fall flowers and don't forget we have those little gourds and pumpkins that we added the white pearl to and we can add those in as well you want to grab some Moss to finish this off these little crates were perfect to turn into a fall centerpiece it was quick and easy and I absolutely love how it turned out picked up several of these sabam pumpkins from the Dollar Tree and I'm going to pull the stems off I'm going to take my green paint going to do just a little veining down the indentations put our brush in the orange paint and pull it down over that veining but it's just going to soften those lines I grabbed a couple of these Garden dishes from the Dollar Tree and I'm going to take them out and spray paint them I am going to start by gluing one pumpkin down to stick one of these little stems back in here I'm just going to take one of these skewers cut that and stick it go back in with our glue and secure it and then I'm going to add one more pumpkin to the top I'm using a low temp glue because this styrofoam will melt I'm adding candy corn to the bottom we have pumpkin place mat and everybody gets a little Jar full of candy corn head to Dollar Tree and pick up some of those styrofoam pumpkins and make some of these for yourself for these holidays we're going to grab four pumpkins and we're going to pull off the little stems we're going to take the small one put it on top and grab a taper candle the taper candle is going to be the guide to make a hole then you're going to take an xacto knife and you're going to take out the area that you just drew and see it fits perfectly so put a Big Blob of glue and put your little pumpkin on top so we're going to grab two little wooden Rings put that at the bottom and now they are totally stable so now we want to take some faux branches and make this really festive you're going to grab your hot glue and put Little Dot of glue in between the two pumpkins and start adding in your pieces of the branches and these are just some mini pine cones and we're just going to hot glue the those in a couple areas on our candle holder and they're ready to display look how cute they are I set up a little cable Arrangement on my outdoor dining table and I think it looks super festive what we want to do is take our foam pumpkins and we're going to remove these steps just push them down until you have them pretty flat so we've got our two plates our two pumpkins and we're going to use epoxy I'm going to put a nice generous portion on the bottom of my plate here and I'm going to take my pumpkin and just stick it to the bottom of my plate and then all you need to do is leave it and let that epoxy dry now that I've let my two sides sit for just a minute so that the epoxy starts to dry and I want to again put a nice generous portion of the epoxy and mix it up to each side of the pumpkin here and then I'm going to attach my two sides together so I'm going to start with this beautiful bronze paint now I want to take a little bit of gold and I'm going to just lighten this up a bit and give it some highlights here you have our beautiful Fall pumpkin inspired cake plate we're going to start with two bins some pine cones I'm going to go ahead and start by pouring my bleach into one of my bins be very careful when pouring your bleach start very carefully adding your water four parts water to one part bleach and now I'm going to take my pine cones and you're just going to go ahead and put them all in your bin and now I'm going to take my empty bin and set it right on top of the pine cones my gallon water container and I'm going to set that on top and my gallon bleach container and those will weigh the pine cones down so that they are now submerged leave those for 24 hours as your pine cones start to dry they're going to can start opening up start with a big piece of this brown paper started with a couple of r cut wood rounds and I'm going to start tucking these beautiful pine cones and then I'm going to add some of these dried grasses in some pieces of rapia and tied them in a knot and then I'm going to mix the knots in so my table is set and my beautiful bleached pine cone centerpiece is the star of the table so I'm going to start with these so I'm going to use these four Chargers some Birch logs um this kind of pine ConEd Garland so I'm going to put that down first and then I'm going to intertwine it with my birch logs and I'm just going to work these in to our garlands here I'm going to tuck some of this down in to give us some more texture I have a whole bin of bleached pine cones and I'm going to add several of those those this cute little sign just going to try and add that right here these cute little I think they're supposed to be Christmas ornaments and I'm just going to tuck those in around and the next thing I'm going to do is add my dinner plates I'm just going to use these orange napkins tie them in a little knot and just put them right like so I have a few wood slices around so I'm just going to tuck them we're going to add wine glasses made little appetizers into little campfires how cute are those and I'm just going to set those right on top I'm going to go ahead and set this nice little camping tablescape like I said it's something you could use for lots of different occasions and you can mix it up a little bit differently you're not familiar with these paper Runners they are fabulous any paper can do this actually is an antler that my husband picked up I'm just going to start with my centerpiece and just tuck these white pumpkins I'm just going to start tucking these in around our pumpkins I have some various feathers and I'm just going to tuck these into so I'm going to go ahead and set my table when you put these down and then I put my dinner plates on them and I just thought it added another texture so what I'm going to do with just setting my table for six green CL napkins and I'm just going to take them like so and pull them right through my napkin ring I'm going to go ahead and add my flat wear and I will just pop him here at the end of the table add my crystal stem wear to each place setting and we will be ready to let people come get in line and head to the
