Fall Rust

Have I mentioned that I love fall?

The cooler nights, warm, sky blue days, the crisp leaves, apples, pumpkins...oh my!

Fall in Montana is especially glorious, and while it is not quite here, I can feel it and I can't wait.

And because I have the patience of a 2 year old, I decided to jump the gun a little and make a new fall front door decoration.
I had no idea what I was going to make until I spied this rusty funnel in my stash.
I knew the rust color was perfect for fall.  I painted some barn red and bright orange paint on a piece of barn wood, sanded it a little and then stained it in Puritan Pine.
I screwed the funnel to the board and added some fall floral to it.  As you can see, I did this in a very random, messy way.
I drilled large holes in the top corners and pulled and knotted a piece of burlap through it to hang it from.  Hint--put a little poster putty on the back to keep it from banging on the door.
A book cover tag, some jute, and a couple washers completed my new fall door decor.  
Harvest Blessings to you!

  13. Oh my stars, I absolutely love what you made with that. I need to find someplace I can get rusty stuff. That is so awesome. Reminds me of why I love Fall and the colors so much. If you put stuff on barn board messy you sure did a great job of it. Great thing to have hanging on your door. Happy Holiday weekend.

  15. I love the way you use random items to create the most amazing things. The door hanging is perfect. It is much more inspirational than a wreath. Your blog is full of great ideas. I always look in to see what you've been working on.
