I wanted to share with you my DIY fall planters for some seasonal inspiration!
I shared some inspiration photos with you last week for my fall planters, and on Sunday I purchased the supplies and made them all in just over an hour! For five planters it cost me about $110. More than I wanted to spend for something that’s seasonal, but the birch logs were $30 of that and I should be able to use them for fall and into winter planters for many seasons to come.
I used a mix of colorful mums, green leafy kale, ornamental grass and pumpkins {and the birch logs in the big planter on the porch}. Simple, but I like it. And, although its fall, I still like to use my favorite fertilizer/plant food to keep all the plants healthy and hearty!
I’m thinking I should have gone with the 6′ birch sticks {in lieu of the 4′ ones I purchased}, but you live and learn, I guess.
I’m pretty much obsessed with kale after this fall project. Not only is it affordable {and an excellent filler} it adds an amazing texture and gorgeous color.  For more fall inspiration check out Fall Porch and Planters.  Happy Fall!

They all look great. I love the birch branches!
They are darling and look even better in person! Your whole neighborhood is really in the autumn spirit . . . lots of inspiring ideas.
love the kale and birch branches. Really cool how the branches add so much height. Where did you get them? I bet you can think of a million things to do with them for the holidays, too!
