Fall is coming soon, many of you are preparing new decorations to spice things up at home. And for those who love to personalized your own decorations, I may have an idea for your Fall DIYs plan. I made an acorn in gold and reconstructive look. I just love the color gold for fall. It’s an easy DIY fall and simple material to used, even recycled material as one of the main supply for this DIY acorn.

My DIY Fall Gold Acorn is one of a different way to present an acorn. It’s a faux acorn that I made from plastic egg and pistachio’s shells. Quick and easy to make, also inexpensive, that is what I love for a seasonal diy decorations. And for this fall gold acorn, you can use it from year to year because acorn is one of the symbol of the fall and you can easily mix it with other ornaments of decorations. The gold acorn can be used as a main star or as a complimentary ornament; it’s up to you to arrange it.

Things To Prepare

I still have some plastic eggs from last Easter and some pistachio’s shells from my Pistachio’s Shells Sunflower project. So, I didn’t need to buy new supplies for this Fall project. I guess, some of you may have the same supplies as mine, and that would be easier for you to follow my tutorial right away. These are the complete list of supplies you will be needed to make a fall gold acorn:

Plastic egg
Pistachio’s shells
Gold paint
Wooden stick
Hot glue

How To Make

The great thing about this pistachio’s shells acorn is that it’s so easy to make and inexpensive for you to make in large amount. So, gather all your supplies I have mentioned before and let’s start to make a gold acorn from pistachio’s shells. And these are the easy steps to make DIY Fall Gold Acorn :

Start with choosing pistachio’s shells and separate them in sizes. Take the bigger size group of pistachio’s shells and glue it one by one onto the plastic egg by using hot glue. Position the shells around the middle of the egg and the bigger part of the egg that will be fully covered by pistachio’s shells.
Continue to glue pistachio’s shells one by one, row by row all the way up to the top of the egg. And while the glue is still hot and melt, insert a small wooden stick in the middle top. It would look like a stalk. Let it dry before you move on to painting work.
Use a gold spray paint and spray it evenly to the pistachio’s shells acorn. Wait until it’s dried. Finished!

Yes, this gold acorn is as easy as that! Quick and simple to make, so you can make lots of them and have it to decorate your home for this fall. You can put them on your mantel, your dining table for fall tablescape, living room table, kitchen top or use it to make a fall wreath. Anything, anywhere in other colors too! You can paint the pistachio’s shells acorn in white, blue or other colors you favor. Wait no more and give it a try!

DIY Geometric Gold Painted Bottle For Fall Decoration

My favorite color from the fall season is gold! It is so glamour, up-scale and shimmering. It’s a great color to have for your fancy and glamour fall decorations. And I had been wanting to use my gold spray paint for a painted bottle project, but I hadn’t had any clue for the design, until I think of a geometric pattern to be used for my gold painted bottle project.

Different from my previous project which I painted the white bottle with gold acrylic paint to have a fall leaves painted bottles in gold; this time I spray painted the bottle. I paired the gold paint with chrome paint to get the geometric pattern which both are glamorous colors and perfect for fall decorations. And I chose zig zag pattern with no reason, I just love the look of it. It’s an easy project to do. Let see what do we need to diy this gold painted bottle.

Un-used clean empty big glass bottle (I like the shape of the bottle which is square, not round).
Gold spray paint
Chrome spray paint
Paper tape

The process of making this fall painted bottle is very easy and simple, just need some time to dry the paint. So how did I make my gold geometric bottle?

Make sure the glass bottle you choose to be painted is clean debris and oil, before you spray paint it. Spray paint the bottle with chrome first on the bottom area only. Let it dry.
Use the paper tape to make the geometric zig zag pattern and tape it on the bottom area.
Spray pain the whole bottle with gold spray paint evenly. Let it dry.
Peel of the paper tape gently and clean up the left overs.
The geometric gold painted bottle is ready for your fall decorations collection!

Basically it only need some paints and used bottle, this up-cycling project is very easy to do but the result is worth to be in your fall decorations collection. This diy painted bottle may not featuring leaves or other fall pattern, but instead it featuring geometric pattern of zig zag. However, it has the significant color of fall and that is gold. I captured the geometric gold bottle with my fall (in love) sign for fall decor.
