Okay, okay, now that Fall is really here according to the calendar, I can start sharing a few Fall projects around our home. I just had to let Summer last as long as possible. I just love Summer-what can I say?? I started by making some Fall Paper Decor.
I decided to use my grandpa’s croquet box as the base. I played around with coffee filters after making the coffee filter wreath. I decided to dye some in tea. I soaked the filter in a pot of tea overnight. So I taped up a few book page cones-and started to play.
This is my final result. I am very pleased how she turned out. I used a few empty jars, filled them with my book page cones, then added my tea dyed “flowers”.
I made the “flowers” just like I did for the coffee filter wreath-EASY PEASY!!
I also added torn pages to “fill in” in-between the jars.
I REALLY like my book page flower-so I clipped her onto the croquet box. Great addition, don’t you think??
I was walking back from the pool and the pine cones caught my eye-just the right touch for Fall decor.
Now I have a little Fall decor with a little imagination. She looks pretty right here for everyone to see.
This is my view when I walk into the kitchen.
This is a closer view when I am in the kitchen looking into the living room.
I had fun add some Fall Paper Decor to begin Fall decorating.

I love all the paper crafts, especially that flower you clipped on the box. And speaking of the box – it’s awesome!
I love all your paper decorating…..but can we talk about that box? If it ever needs a vacation in Kentucky….be sure to let me know :)
