Here are 6 easy and affordable fall centerpieces that you can make yourself. These beautiful centerpieces are affordable yet elegant too.

Are you looking for some fall inspiration? Well, you came to the right place. I love all things fall.

Each year, I enjoy changing things up a bit. I may use different colors for fall décor. It is fun to use non-traditional colors.

Today, I am honored to be joining some of my blogger friends to bring you some early fall decor ideas for your home. Thank you to my dear friend, Pasha at Pasha Is Home for hosting. If you don’t follow her, you should. Pasha has a gorgeous home and has wonderful styling tips.

6 Easy and Affordable Fall Centerpieces That You Can Make Yourself

Decorating for the fall does not need to break the bank. Fall centerpieces are the perfect way to add neutrals or pops of colors to your space.

I have some great easy and affordable fall centerpieces ideas that you can make yourself. Why buy expensive arrangements? Let me show you how to make some for your home.

1. fresh fruit

I love using fresh fruit in my decorations for the season. This table scape can be done indoors or outside. A throw is draped on the table with apples scattered.

Vegetables or fruits can be used as vessels for floral arrangements. Try using a pumpkin or cabbage with box wood clippings from your yard.

I bought greens at the local market for $4. The bunch of sunflowers from the Amish market for $5.

Another easy and affordable centerpiece is placing pears or apples in a large bowl or antique soup tureen. Fall is the season for apple picking. I love baking with apples in the fall. Why not use them in a simple centerpiece?

2. DRIED OR CUT FLOWERS FROM YOUR YARD

Create a grouping of fall items and incorporate a vase of flowers from your garden or the local market. Shop your house to use want you have in fall decorations. Adding a riser with your grouping adds visual interest and draws your eyes to look over the objects.

I love to use Hydrangeas that have been dried from yard. They are great affordable items for centerpieces. Check out my post on how to dry Hydrangeas here.

3. faux greenery

If you do not have a green thumb, no worries. Try adding faux branches to a vase that you own.

Use any gift cards you may have or coupons from Target to snag a few branches. I am using four stems here. This vase has a large opening. The trick is to insert a smaller vase inside. You will use less stems/branches.

I use shipping paper and bubble wrap to secure my vase.

Buy your floral stems on sale. I bought these stems for 90% off clearance. Six stems at 60 cents for each piece!

I used the same hack as the other large vase. This smaller vase fits nicely without the need for bubble wrap or brown paper.

4. real plants

If you love plants and have them around the house, here is an easy centerpiece. Add a seasonal pick. It does not get any easier!

You can just leave it on the table and add an inexpensive pumpkin pick. This grapevine pumpkin pick is from Hobby Lobby and is 40% off.

You can even add a few beads tucked into your plant for some added texture.

5. Lantern

Another favorite item to use in tablescapes is a lantern. It is the perfect item for a quick and easy centerpiece.

Above is a wooden open lantern that can hold a large candle or try using a vase with florals. Try pairing tea lights on each side. You could even put a pumpkin in the center of this open lantern.

6. USING A CLOCHE

One of my favorite items to use in creating a centerpiece is a cloche. I use one all the time in my house. This one has a large glass dome.

Here I have dried some sunflowers and placed one in a nest. A couple dried flowers are next to the terra cotta pot. It is easy to change out your centerpiece from summer to fall by switching out a couple of items.

It is perfect to hold a mercury glass pumpkin. I have a timer tea light inside with a few burlap leaves. A very easy affordable centerpiece that you can make with items you may have on hand. If you do not have a cloche, add a wreath on the wooden tray. Place the pumpkin in the center.

Hope you enjoyed these 6 easy and affordable fall centerpieces that you can make yourself. These centerpieces can be placed on a dining table, coffee or console tables or the kitchen island. Have fun creating your fall centerpieces!
