How about a quick and easy project to liven up your front porch or inside by your other autumn decor…
I just found a tall wicker basket. (And before buying one….look at the thrift store. Or, even your garage/attic. Who knows where you might find the perfect basket.)
And then I spray painted it dark brown. (Let it dry completely and spray with a clear coating/sealant. Allow to dry again.)
And then I tied some ribbon around the basket. And put some tall wheat stalks inside. Don’t have any wheat stocks laying around?!?! :) Check out your local craft store for any sort of tall replacement in the floral department. There are all sorts of funky/fallish/tall items to put in your basket. (I have no clue what any of them are called…..just browse around a while.)
I just love how that turned out, it is gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing!
So cute! Where did you find the basket and the wheat from?

I am headed the thrift store first thing Monday. This is something my daughter would love to do with me. She is 4, but she loves anything crafty. This will be fun for us to do together! Love it!
See, this is why you have a website with a ton of followers–you have great, simple ideas! :)
I LOVE how simple and cute this is! Fall is my favorite season (I do decorate for Christmas in fall too haha)! Thanks for sharing! I love your ideas :)

That is really pretty!
Very nice! So that's what you do with the wheat!
Very nice! I love how simple and elegant it is! I have so many yellowish baskets that could benefit from some spray paint right about now!
This is so pretty, what would I do without you? :-)

Really cute idea~ I always find cute baskets at yard sales or at Goodwill- now I have something to do with them! Love the ribbon…
I am soooooo doing this! I love your autumn projects…so cute and festive!
I love this! I was just at my local grocery store and saw some wheat. Picked it up, but it down because I had no idea what to do with it.
But now I know!
