I love my home the most from October - early January. My friends make fun of me for using the word "cozy" so much but it's the best word that I can think of so I'm going to use it here. A lot. My home from October to January is cozy. From the oranges, yellows and reds of autumn to the rich tones of Christmas, it's all-around COZINESS. This post is more of an inspiration to "get out and do it!" than an DIY but I think it'll serve its purpose. An autumn wreath for your door, wall, or as a centerpiece for your dining room table is a necessity. Here's mine, now get out there and make your own!
A few tips: Play around with the fax flowers in the store before you buy them. See how they go together. If you love them by themselves, there's still a possibility that you could hate them together! You won't need glue or anything if you use a wreath like the one that I used. When I cut the flowers from the bouquets, I left the stems long and was able to weave them in. Add other fun details. I added a pumpkin and a cute little bird.

What you'll need: A "Make Your Own" moccasin kit, (these can be found at your local craft store and range from $15 - $22) two crochet doilies, fabric glue, one of those sponges on a stick (no idea what the real word for it is) and a pair of sharp scissors.
Start out by coating the toe piece with a thin layer of fabric glue. Place the doily wherever your heart desires and let the glue dry. Once it is firmly attached (a.k.a. when the glue is dry) trim the doily so there is 1/2" - 3/4" extra on all sides.
Follow the instructions for putting the shoe together. When you get to the toe portion, fold the extra pieces of doily under and string the lace through them, just for added strength and to make sure that the ends don't fray. Once the moccasin is put together, repeat with the other one!
