If you want something that you can hang in September and keep up all the way through Christmas, go for a red berry wreath. It feels perfectly autumnal since the color coordinates with the falling leaves, and just as appropriate to put you in the holiday spirit.

Want a little farmhouse flair in just two steps? All you have to do is hang an olive wall bucket on your door and add some seasonal ball flowers like Billy Buttons (dried or faux). You can leave the bucket out and just swap what's inside when the seasons change.

Simple and straightforward, you can't go wrong with a few pieces of flint corn for a classic and seasonal display. Simply look for cobs at your local market with the husks still attached, so you can gather and bunch them together with wire to hang.

Go for a fall harvest look with a wheat wreath from the store. Then, add pumpkins, marigolds, and fake bats around Halloween.

For a cool-tone door, use a blue, teal, and green wreath that matches the evergreens in your area. You can also hang some evergreen sprigs on either side to pair with the color palette!

To make it, begin by cutting large pieces of cardboard into three rectangles, 3 by 6 inches, 3 by 7 inches, and 3 by 7 1/2 inches. Wrap the teal raffia lengthwise around the 6-inch rectangle as many times as possible, then snip at the bottom and top, so you get 6-inch-long pieces. (Repeat with the other two colors and rectangles.)

For the wreath base, use a 12-inch wreath hoop to trace a circle on a piece of cardboard and cut it out. Next, cut out an opening that's 8 inches wide. Grab a strand of teal raffia and hook it onto the 8-inch hoop by forming a loop and drawing the ends through, as you do with a luggage tag. Continue with more strands of raffia until the hoop is full. Repeat with the emerald raffia using a 10-inch hoop and the turquoise raffia on a 12-inch hoop.

Finally, assemble the wreath by hot-gluing the turquoise wreath to the cardboard base, and the emerald and teal wreaths on top.

Give your door a bright fall makeover with this felt foliage wreath. If you really want to go bold, paint the door this sunshine yellow shade to match!

To make it, you'll need twelve 8-by-12-inch sheets of felt in assorted autumnal colors and a 12-inch wire wreath frame. Begin by wrapping thin strips of felt around the wreath frame and hot-glue in place until the entire frame is covered.

Fold a sheet of felt accordion-style about 6 times, ironing the creases, and repeat with each sheet of felt. Using scallop shears, cut 2-inch-long leaves from the folded/creased felt. (You'll just need to cut a half-leaf shape, then unfold it like you would when cutting out a heart.) Repeat this step with all of the pieces, so you end up with 8 to 10 leaves of each color.

For the last step, add the leaves to the wreath, gluing them in place as you go and layering them as shown. Begin with a section of the lightest felt color and end with the darkest one!

Wreaths are gorgeous, but sometimes you need to switch it up. Hang a basket and fill it with foliage like fall lettuce mixed with some winter berries, or flowers like hydrangeas, sunflowers or colorful fall leaves. This blogger uses a wood cone, but you can also use a woven flat-back basket.

Fall is all about the scents, and fresh-cut birch smells so dang good! The light birch wood perfectly balances these warm maroon flowers.

Gather about 40 assorted birch slices together and arrange the largest ones on a 12-inch chipboard wreath using a hot glue gun. Then, layer the medium and small ones on top and glue them. For a final floral touch, cut off the stems of faux flowers using a wire cutter, and glue the flowers in clusters over the birch bark slices.

Celebrate all the colors of fall with a floral wreath and matching pots of marigolds. Frame your porch with tall cornstalks to complete the classic display.
