Just because the days are getting shorter, it doesn’t mean you have to move the party indoors. Fall is a great time to have an outdoor party. Kids love hay rides, bonfires, scavenger hunts, wiener roasts, and haunted houses.

Fall is such a fun time to create a backyard display, with all the fall colors, and textures. You can create a unique look by combining several things together into one display, or repeat one theme throughout your display. Here are a few fall backyard decorating ideas to help you get started.

What can you put in a fall backyard display? Here are a few things to consider:

• Mums~ Their blooms are spectacular in the fall, so you should definitely consider them for your fall decorations.
• Pumpkins
• Leaves
• Colorful gourds
• Straw
• Scarecrows
• Corn Shocks
• A large container or background, like a large barrel, small wagon, wheel barrow, or wood fence, can help bring the whole display together.

An old wooden box with some straw pumpkins and gourds can make a cute fall display for a porch or entryway.

A large backyard fall display can be a great background for fall photos, or a great backdrop for fall entertaining.

For entertaining add straw bales for seating, and use old sawhorses and boards for tables with plenty of corn shocks to cover the legs. Keep it rustic and fall with plenty of reds, oranges, yellows, and browns.
