Fall Front Door Basket: Wildflowers & Billy Buttons
Easy to make front door basket with gold wildflowers, billy buttons, and trailing greenery. The perfect touch to your fall front door!
In the spring, when I shared a door basket with cherry blossoms, I told you that the basket would be hanging around for fall and Christmas. I am definitely not tired of it, and reinventing it for fall seemed like the logical thing to do. I had pictured cotton bolls and mums, but ended up with wildflowers and billy buttons! I used the greenery that was already in the basket, so adding the fall elements took no time at all.
To begin, I removed the blueberries and cherry blossoms I had used in the spring, but left everything else in the basket. As you can see in the image above, there is eucalyptus and trailing greenery. To see the assembly up to this point, click {HERE.}
Next, I inserted two bunches of gold wildflowers. The trick with the wildflowers is to fan them out and bend the branches, until it all looks full and even. The last step was adding four stems of gold billy buttons. I placed a stem on each side of the basket, and the remaining two stems went in the middle.
There are so many things to love about a project like this:
- It took no time at all. Not counting the time spent shopping for the fall elements, it took about 10 minutes.
- It was super budget-friendly. The only things new that were purchased were the wildflowers and the billy buttons…and they were on sale!
- I was able to reuse what I already had. I had already invested in the basket and greenery, it just made sense to repurpose it for the next season.
- It is colorful and adds great curb appeal. The gold pops right off my navy blue door and it looks great from the street.
I’ll be back next week to show you the rest of our fall front porch. I am using touches of gold, copper, and navy blue, so if you aren’t in the mood for fall yet, this might do the trick!
