Organized Clutter

I found this cloth blank banner/flag at Hobby Lobby in the Christmas Craft area.  It has a stiff plastic or coated backing.  Do you ever wonder how to decorate these craft blanks?   I will show you how I finished my banner, and then my decorated fall covered patio decor!   I removed the string and dowel from my Hobby Lobby Banner.  Next, I brushed on two coats of Dixie Belle Chalk Finish Paint in Putty .   I think this paint color takes on a burlap look. I didn't paint the back. Just the front and edges.

This wooden tray was a Goodwill find from the Twin Cities area. It had some water stains and some wear and tear.  I decided to give it a fall makeover.

This wooden canister was a summer Goodwill find. I transformed it into easy, fun fall decor!

I purchased this set of four fall, cutting board shaped coasters at our local Menards. They were perfect for a fall project that I had in mind!

I saw this rustic pallet section leaning against the outdoor wall of our local antiques shop, priced at $5.   I knew that I could make it into something fun!

I recently picked up this wooden hand shaped jewelry holder at a Goodwill store in the Twin Cities. It needed a good cleaning AND a makeover.

  My project today started out with three very similarly sized thrift shop books. I gave them a fun fall makeover WITHOUT PAINT OR STENCILS! Take a look below.

I purchased this rustic half section of a barn door at our local antiques shop on Crazy Daze for $13. I thought it would be the start of a fun fall outdoor DIY decor piece.

This little rusty metal folding chair was a $3 purchase at a local flea market AND one of my End of July finds  HERE.  

This pie tin was on clearance at the antique shop last week and I got it for half price or $3. I transformed it into a fall decor piece.
