Even though summer is over and the temps have dropped considerably, I love this time of year! The fall colors are so pretty and it will soon be Thanksgiving time. Whether or not you’re hosting a Thanksgiving, you can make a simple centerpiece for your dining table, front entry, coffee table or mantle. Fall harvest candles are a nice fall update that won’t cost much.
Add a few things to your grocery list: popcorn, dry split peas, and dry red beans.
Then it’s just a matter of obtaining some glass candle holders and votives and layering the popcorn kernels, beans, and peas as desired.
Tie some twine around the top and put in a votive candle.
A beautiful welcoming display for fall!
