It’s Fall Y’all! Or so we wish. I don’t know about where you live but here in Houston, Texas… It is blazing hot. It’s so hot that the eggs come out of the chickens fully fried.
But no matter what the actual temperature is, the seasons march on. Technically it won’t be fall until September but with school starting and the craziness of fall sports, you might want to start working on fall crafts now.
The good news is that there are fall crafts that you can start using in your home now that cross the line between summer and fall. My favorite Pioneer Woman style pumpkin? Eh… maybe hold off on that craft for now but the Burlap Sunflower Wreath? Yes. That’s a good one.
So here we go… 3 Fall Crafts that you can make now and transition from summer to fall.
1 – Blue and White Gingham Mason Jars
I love these jars soo much. They simply make me happy. They’ll make you happy too because they’re awesome like that. Here’s the good news though, You don’t have to hang the air dry leaf from it or fill it with fall colored flowers.
Paint these suckers and then fill them with some white flowers and tie them with a red bow for Patriot’s Day and Labor Day. Then when those days have passed, put some mustard colored flowers in them and dance like crazy as you welcome fall.
Shelby’s colors were blush and bashful, mine are navy and mustard. I might go get out these jars and switch around my mantle decorations today.
