Fall Swag Door Hanger

by 23 Comments

I really love fall decorations.  The richer colors make my house feel so warm and cozy inside.  I try to keep my house decorated “Fall-ish” just until after Thanksgiving or until my kids Christmas fever becomes contagious enough for me to bust out my extremely heavy and bulky Christmas tree along with it’s trimmings.

Fall-Swag

Fall Swag Door Hanger

So to keep my home warm and cozy, I turned this grapevine wall swag into some Fall home decor.  I cut the pennant banner from Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge and strung it together using jute twine.  Jute twine really is the best!

I made these flowers out of  double-sided crepe paper that I found at Scrapbook Expo awhile ago.  I fell in total love with this crepe paper and bought it in a few colors.  They booth was  a store called  Mon Ami Gabby and they were selling all sorts of mouth-watering embellishments.

I embellished my swag with leaves cut from Doodlecharms, font cut from Storybook and added various buttons and gemstone leafs.

How many of you keep Fall home or just go ahead bust out your Christmas Spirit after Halloween?

  20. Oh Holly, this is fabulous. What a beautiful decoration for your home. I love it. Good luck keeping Christmas decor at bay! LOL, my daughter already has her trees up – granted, she’ll be gone for Thanksgiving and the first week of Dec. so felt she had to have it done.
