5-Minute Fall Door Decor

Simple, simple, simple.  That is my decorating motto these days.

Life is just so busy with two kids and all of their activities, that I just don’t have the time I used to have to spend decorating for each season.

This spring, I found a cute metal bucket at Hobby Lobby that I have changed twice already to suit each season.  The best part?  It only takes me a few minutes and costs just a few dollars to update.  You can see my spring version here and my summer version here.

I am in LOVE with this method of decorating my front door.

I re-use the same metal hanging bucket and two bunches of faux boxwood to serve as my base layer, and then I simply add a few bunches of seasonal faux flowers.

I don’t bother snipping each flower from the bunch, I just use the entire little bundle (the kind of flower bunch that costs about a dollar at craft stores) and poke them in to the boxwood and fluff until it looks just right.

It seriously takes me about five minutes to get the entire thing done!

And, friends, this update cost me $4.

My initial investment in the bucket (about $15) and the faux boxwood (about $12) was money well spent.

    I love everything about your decorating style. I too have been using a front door basket for the past couple years. I use red, pink or orange flower bouquets (from Hobby Lobby) to change through the seasons. So easy and great punch of color.
