I’m having a craft day with my sister-in-law today, so I’ve been thinking about some crafty fall DIY projects. Here are a few that I really like.

Fall DIY Projects from The Camp Gal

1. Solar Lanterns

These lanterns are great. How cool would it be to hang these from trees around a campsite? I love the look of the copper pots and that they are solar powered.

2. Fall Pinecone Garland

What a great, inexpensive project! I’m definitely doing this! I love bringing the outdoors in. I’m skipping the glitter, because I can’t stand the mess. (Hint: buy your twine at the hardware store, it’s usually cheaper than craft stores).

3. Sweater Redos 

There’s something I love about the elbow patches on this sweater. And I love the zipper and leather details on this sweater.  I’m on the lookout for the perfect thrift store sweaters for these two projects.

4. Cross-stitched iPhone Cover

I picked up a little cross-stitch cell phone case at Walmart for under $6. I’m planning on creating a plaid iPhone cover. I’ll post photos when it’s done. I haven’t cross-stitched since I was a little kid, so we’ll see how it turns out. This chevron pattern is really neat as well.

5, Painted S’mores/Hot Dog Roasting Sticks

How cute are these? I’d totally make them if I was camping with kids!

Update: Here’s the pinecone garland I made:
