It's official: I'm head-over-heels in love with autumn! Even the rainy days have a certain beauty, as the colors of the leaves really shine. In the spirit of soaking up all of the fun and natural beauty the season has to offer, I rounded up five posts that feature super-easy, not-your-run-of-the-mill, ultra-creative crafts using three of the biggest stars of autumn: leaves, acorns, and pumpkins. Best of all, they're not just for kids (although I'm sure my kids will love them). I can't believe how pretty and elegant some of these designs are--wait 'til you see them!

- From Budget Savvy Diva: Crayon Melt Pumpkins
- From Edventures: The Art & Science of Leaf Rubbings
- From Emily Isabella: This is What Happens When You Live in the Woods

It was so difficult for me to choose just five pretty decorating and craft ideas for fall that I ended up creating a brand-new Pinterest board dedicated to autumn crafts! You can find MANY more gorgeous ideas there, plus a few more in the Related Articles section below. Have a colorful and crafty weekend!
