With the days becoming shorter it’s time for me to start decorating our home for the cooler weather.  I always pick our Master bedroom to change first, it seems to be the easiest room for me to change. Today I’m sharing a simple way to change the look of your room by simply adding Fall florals.

A few views of our Master bedroom this summer.

Adding Fall florals to your home can be a little pricy.  To keep the cost low I buy stems, picks and greenery to design my own.

I have three arrangement that I like to change out with the season in our Master bedroom. Here are some helpful tips when I create my arrangements.

  • Finding your container is pretty simple ∼  Use a container that will compliment your arrangement and would match the style of your room.
  • Picking the right type of stems for your container ∼ Use stems that would extend beyond the container’s rim 1 1/2 to 2 times the height, for example: a container that is six inches high your stems should be between nine to 12 inches high.
  • Adding your stems to your container ∼ Start with your focal stems, placing them around the sides.  Next will be your fillers.  Add them where needed.  Make sure you look at all sides of your arrangement.

I love keeping pretty stems in one of my ginger jar on my bedroom’s dresser.  I found the cutest Fall stems at Old Time Pottery that I will be adding to the jar along with some other stems I had from last Fall.

Here are the items I used for this arrangement:

  • White ginger jar
  • 3 faux Cattail stems
  • 3 faux Foxtail stems
  •  1 Berry and Grass bush
  • Battery operated light branch
  • 3 purple & green Thistle Spray
  • 1 Maple leaf bush
  • 1 Dollar Tree Cattail pick

Let’s get started!

I added my three cattail stems to my jar.  I spaced them one in the back center and one on each side. (I did remove the tags when I was finished)

I added my foxtail between the cattails.  So now I have a complete outer circle.

For my fillers I am using the berry and leaf bush and the maple leaf bundle.  I added the berry and leaf bush in the center spanning it out throughout the arrangement.  I used the maple leaf bundle singly by cutting the stems off of the bundle. I placed the leaves around the bottom and tuck some in the arrangement as well.

Bending the stems of the leaves to cradle the top of the jar.

I felt the front was bare I added a Dollar Tree bundle.

I thought it would be cute to add the battery operated light branch to the arrangement.  I placed it in the center and fanned out the branches throughout the arrangement.

I stepped back and realized I needed a touch of blue.  So I grabbed 3 thistle stems I used last year in my ginger jar and added to the arrangement.

It’s perfect for our bedroom!

The next arrangement is pretty easy.  I am using one bundle of wheat and a little pottery container.  Very simple and so pretty.

Here are the items I used.

  • pottery pitcher
  • wheat and grass bush

All I did was place the bush inside the vase and spread the wheat and grass the way I wanted it.

That’s it!  And it looks super cute on my night table.

The last floral change is the basket on top of our armoire cabinet.  I added wheat picks, grass picks and twigs to the basket.  No rhyme or reason I just took each bundle and placed inside the empty basket.
