Take some inspiration from the gallery of beautiful autumn wreaths and door decorations at Better Homes & Gardens, many with instructions for making your own. The wreath ideas cover a wide spectrum and often use materials that you can easily find right in your back yard or at your local grocery or craft store, like apples, pinecones, kumquats, gourds, dried autumn flowers, feathers, and twig leaf bases. Prepare to be inspired: 19 Fall Wreaths & Door Decorations, Wreaths for Fall, and Autumn Wreaths with Staying Power.

Fond memories of days spent making Scooby Doo and Smurf shrinky dinks came flooding back to me as soon as I saw this Lucky Charm Bracelet craft over at Sublime Stitching. You can make one, too, with a few patterns from Sublime Stitching and shrinky dink paper. What a cute idea!

Who hasn’t wanted to find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow? Make and Takes shows us how we can make both, so we don’t have to look very far to find our very own pot of (chocolate-y) gold. This pretty craft would make a great addition to a St. Patrick’s Day themed dinner or birthday party, and you could make mini versions as take home party favors.
