How to Make a Rustic Farmhouse Style Fall Craft

Today, I’m super jazzed that I just published my rustic farmhouse style fall craft.

And, I’m so delighted that you dropped by today.

A warm hello to all!

 

I want to take a moment and thank Kristen from Ella Claire Inspired for organizing this marvelous group of bloggers. I hope you take a moment to view the rest of the projects at the bottom of my post.

Speaking of our fall printable, if you are interested in my printable from last year, here is my fall give thanks pillow project.

 

Happy Fall!

Since you are here, I assume you like projects?

Well, I love creating them.

And most of the time this involves creative messes.

Everywhere.

 

And if you were in my house at this very moment, you would immediately notice a tremendous mess on our table.

There is glitter, twigs, papers, and piles of felt.

Every inch of our dining table is covered.

 

You see, just a couple of days ago, I published a fall blog tour and a felt wreath.

So, I barely had time to recover and take a deep breath.

And then suddenly I was staring at this blog post.

And to top it off, I got my projects mixed up. So, you can imagine that I kind of panicked.

 

Don’t worry, I survived.

Seriously I had no time to panic.

I quickly got to work and designed this rustic farmhouse fall craft.

So, how does it happen that something I contemplated all summer is done in a day?

Creatively is fascinating, don’t you think?

 

Well, the story doesn’t end there.

My project took another interesting twist.

You see, I couldn’t find a spot that I loved for my little rustic farmhouse style fall craft, so I made a few changes.

Long story short, I changed the words and size.

 

I’m delighted that I finished this cute farmhouse style fall craft.

And finally, it has a happy home on my entry table.

So, now it welcomes our friends.

Well… are you ready to start this project?

Let’s dig in!

Supplies:

Free Fall Printable (print this out with a horizontal format)

White cardstock

Cardboard from a cereal box

Twigs

Glitter

Glue Stick

Elmer’s glue (this is for attaching the glitter to the twigs)

Scissors

Wire

Glue Gun

Stripe Black and White Linen Ribbon

Garden Pruners

 

Directions:

1. Print out the fall printable.

2. Since my paper is somewhat see-thru, I lightly glued a white sheet of cardstock paper on the back of the print. Next, lightly glue print on the non-printed side of the cereal box.

3. Take the 4 twigs and frame the print. Make sure to mark each twig so you know where to cut them.

4. Trim the twigs with garden pruners.

5. Now, your twigs are trimmed and ready to paint with glue and sprinkle with glitter.

6. Glue the twigs to the print.

7. You should now have the top layer of the twigs, the printable, cardstock and finally the cereal box. Next cut all these layers along the outer edge of the twig frame.

 

Wire glued to yellow cardboard

8. Cut a piece of wire long enough to be a hanger. Glue the wire to the back for the print. Next glue another piece of cardstock to the back of the project. So, just FYI, this step is optional.

 

White acorns on a table

9. Take some acorn caps and hot glue them to white wool pom poms. So, I then glued them to a ribbon and attached it the back of my frame.

10. Add a bow of choice and hot glue it to the top of the frame.

Congrats, you now have your own rustic farmhouse style fall craft.

Happy Crafting!

Cheers,

Holiday Workshop

So, if you like this project, maybe you’ll like my Holiday Workshop.

There is nothing quite like watching someone make a wreath live, or arm knit a chunky wool blanket, or show how to make a beautiful floral design.

I’m offering live classes for October, November, and December.

So, currently, I’m accepting sign-ups for the waitlist. My classes will include floral designs, holiday projects, baking and much more. The price is $9.00 a month.
