fall decorations for outside

where do you buy your decorations...also if anyone wants to share ideas that would be great!

Re: fall decorations for outside

we actually got a ton at White Post Farms in Melville...

almost mums from a local nursery and some other stuff at Pier 1!

Re: fall decorations for outside

I have gotten some from AC Moore, Kohls, Target and Christmas Tree Shop!

Re: fall decorations for outside

Pier 1, Marshalls, Michaels, Flowers were gifted but they're from Home Depot and I plan on getting some more Halloween stuff from Dollar Tree (yes I'm ghetto like that) and Christmas Tree Shops

ETA: I ordered some random Halloween decorations from Oriental Trading too

Re: fall decorations for outside

Wreath I made, pumpkins and mums from farmstands. We also have a Halloween flag my mom gave us. I saw an ad in Newsday though for a nursery in Bay Shore that was offering mums, pumpkins, corn stalks and hay bales all as a package for like $40 I think.

Re: fall decorations for outside

Michaels is great for wreaths (you can make one which is wayyyy cheaper than buying anything they made). Any farm or garden center would have mums, corn stalks, hay bales, and corn stalks. Pier 1 had alot of realy cute decorative stuff along with homegoods.

Re: fall decorations for outside

Stop and Shop has huge mums on sale this week for 4.99 each so we bought a bunch of them and Michaels, AC Moore and The Christmas Tree Shop had some really cute, cheaper decorations

Re: fall decorations for outside

All from our local nursery:
-cornstalks for our two lamp posts with orange lights wrapped around them
-3 bales of hay in front of the lamp post closest to the house and we place mums, real pumpkins and light up jack-o-lanterns (from Target) in & one the hay. (no mums there yet because I purchase from fundraisers.)

-pumpkin & leaf wreath on the front door (purchased years ago from Tuesday Morning.)

-lots of mums! Planted in the ground and in urns & window boxes.

-some Asters & fall cabbage







(window boxes are just starting to bloom)

CC your yard looks FABULOUS!

I decorate pretty simple for all the holidays. I got my door sign & my awesome witch at Michaels.

love it!! can I ask how much you paid for the mums...love them!!!

Thanks want2beamom & Kitty!

The big mums in the urns are 20" containers and we paid $15 (or maybe it was $16), the mums in the ground are from 9" containers and were $6, the mums in my flower boxes are 3" containers and were $2 (I purchased them at $24 per flat.)
