Autumn decorations from the kingdom of mother nature - ideas for the flower box
If you wander through fields and forests or your own garden with open eyes, you will find a wealth of natural materials for autumn balcony box decoration. Be inspired by the following collection of ideas:
- Arrange bizarrely shaped, colorful ornamental gourds between the balcony plants
- Collect cones from fir, pine and larch and place them between the plants
- Dry the corn on the cob, decorate with colorful ribbons and use as a flower box decoration
- Harvest red and yellow ornamental apples and place them under winter-green balcony plants as a touch of colour
Small, autumnal wreaths can be conjured up from straw, twigs, ivy tendrils, roots and leaves and hung on the visible side of the flower box (€16.99). It is easier with prepared blanks from the craft store, which you decorate with berries, acorns, cones and dried flowers.
Make autumnal clothes for flower boxes yourself - this is how it works
When the temperatures drop in autumn, we pull the first fluffy sweaters out of the closet. By also covering your balcony box with a warm and cozy garment, the decoration becomes a reflection of the current season. The following options interpret the decoration theme with an autumn flair:
- Loop jute ribbons in warm, autumnal colors around the flower box
- Alternatively, wrap the vessel in mottled gray or brown sheep's wool, wrapped with matching colored jute ribbons
- Drape green garden fleece around the box with red, braided sisal cords
If you underlay the colorful fleece fleece coat with bubble wrap, the flower box is also winterproof. The warming foil protects the root balls of the autumn planting from the first night frosts and yet remains hidden from the viewer's eyes.
tips
Autumn time is mushroom time. You can integrate the current theme of the season into the balcony box decoration with self-made figures. This is very easy to do with white modeling clay, which you shape into realistic mushroom caps. Attached to small wooden sticks with hot glue and painted with cheerful splashes of color, the decorative mushrooms set decorative accents in autumn and winter flower boxes.
