Gold Studded Pumpkin {And more 10 minute decorating ideas}

By Stacy 15 Comments

I love the 10 Minute Decorating series that Laura has put together and I was excited to share some Fall ideas since pretty much everything I did to decorate this year took 10 minutes or less.

Gold Studded Pumpkin

I wanted to glam up my pumpkins but didn’t want to do anything messy or time consuming so I decided to give this little guy some gold studs.

I grabbed some brads from my desk drawer and started sticking them in. I followed the lines that run down the pumpkin naturally.

You can use thumb tacks as well. I had some gold ones in my desk, but I liked how the brads stick out more.

Make Your Own Art

Another one of my favorite ideas is to frame leaves. It is easy and very inexpensive art.

Gathering

And my favorite idea is to gather things from outside and display them. It is as easy as sticking branches in a vase or acorns in a bowl. Simple!

Even if you haven’t decorated for Fall yet, there is still time. And it doesn’t have to cost anything at all! And you can do it in just a few minutes which is even better :)

Here are even more quick decorating ideas!

    When you said, “gold stud” I thought you were talking about me and I got all excited. Then I realized you weren’t and now my life is a wreck. Thanks.

    (Just kidding. I love this project so much. Like SO much.)

    I have never met a glam pumpkin I didn’t like! Great job Stacey, the brads look fabulous! I sort of want to dazzle everything up with gold studs lately… So good!

    I love your ideas – especially framing the leaves. I used to collect leaves when walking with my (then) toddlers and hang them in bunches around the house, as well, but never this nice. :) And what a great idea for the pumpkin. Something that would make a fun and easy craft for grandparents and grandchildren. Thank you! :) Happy Autumn Bliss!
