New Fall/Autumn decorations!

Today I made some new fall/autumn decorations! I got the idea from...wait for it...Pinterest!!! Surprise, surprise! I am not sure what to call them because they can be used for some many things. Here is a picture of the finished product.


They were actually pretty easy to make once I got the hang of it! I took some candlesticks and bowls (not sure what else to call them) and hot glued them together. I used my Cricut to cut out the word autumn from the Stretch Your Imagination cartridge and I loved it! I put designs on the back as well using the same cartridge!
The pumpkin was so cute I just had to use it and the little acorns added just the right finish I thought. The orange one doesn't have a lot going on on the back, I am not sure what to add to it yet! Right now I have a votive in one and another little candle holder and a tea light in the other. The tealight is sitting on some fake leaves. But you can also fill them with some fake leaves and other fall like things. Like this: (Excuse the lighting, they reflect the flash so bad that this was the only way to take the picture.)
I got the leaves, gourds, candlesticks and bowls from the Dollar Tree! Super inexpensive since I already had the vinyl that I used to cut the word and accents with! Now to find a place for them!!
