If you've been around here for a while, you know I love a good busted canvas craft. This time, instead of using scrapbook paper or a napkin, I tried the technique with fabric.

Start with a small stretched canvas and cover the front and sides with fall fabric using Mod Podge. Once everything is dry, cut the center into sections and roll each little "pizza slice" backward to create the busted effect.

A "Hello Fall" printable peeks through the opening, and a scrappy twine bow finishes everything off.

I especially love the extra texture the fabric adds to this project. It gives the traditional busted canvas technique a completely different look while still being surprisingly easy to make.

Those little wood pumpkin cutouts show up at the dollar store practically every fall, and there are about a million ways to decorate them.

For this version, I used fall sunflower fabric to cover the three raised sections of the pumpkin.

The trick is to make paper templates first. Press regular printer paper over each raised section to create an outline, cut out your templates, and then use those to cut perfectly sized pieces of fabric.

Decoupage the fabric onto the wood with Mod Podge, paint the remaining portions of the pumpkin in a coordinating color, and finish it with a little checkered ribbon bow.

Easy peasy—and completely customizable depending on the fabric you find.

Embroidery hoops aren't just for embroidery!
Turn a couple of inexpensive hoops into adorable fabric pumpkins by filling them with coordinating fall fabrics. I used a plaid for one and a pumpkin print for the other so they coordinated without being exactly the same.
Then comes the fun part: turning the hoops into actual pumpkins.
Cover the metal hardware with green felt, add a real twig for the stem, cut a couple of little felt leaves, and finish each pumpkin with a scrappy twine bow.
I always keep twigs in my craft room for exactly this sort of situation. Totally normal behavior.
Make two like I did, or grab several different hoop sizes and create an entire little fabric pumpkin patch.

Plain battery-operated candles get a major fall upgrade with a little fabric and Mod Podge.
For these Fall Fabric Decoupage Candles, cut a strip of fabric slightly taller than the candle and long enough to wrap all the way around it. Brush Mod Podge over the candle, smooth the fabric into place, and carefully trim around the wavy top edge.
Then embellish!
I wrapped one candle with baker's twine and added green and white check ribbon to the other. Group a few different heights together for a cute little fall display.
Just remember that this project is for battery-operated flameless candles only. Fabric plus an actual candle flame is not the kind of crafting excitement we're looking for.

Here's a fun way to make a basic dollar store picture frame look completely custom.
Instead of buying a separate photo mat, use the cardboard backing that already comes inside the frame.
Cut a rectangular opening in the cardboard, cover the entire thing with fall fabric, and carefully wrap the fabric around both the inside and outside edges using Mod Podge.
Pop your favorite family photo or fall printable behind the opening, return everything to the original frame, and suddenly that plain little dollar store frame looks a whole lot more interesting.
I especially love plaid fabric for this project because it adds pattern and texture without distracting too much from whatever you're framing.

Decorative book stacks are one of those crafts I keep coming back to because they're such an easy way to add height to a seasonal display.
For this Fall Fabric Book Stack Craft, start with three matching hardcover books from the dollar store.
Cover each book completely with fall fabric and Mod Podge, carefully folding the material around the covers and spine. Then make simple cardstock labels for the spines.
Stack them together, and you've got an easy piece of fall decor for a mantel, shelf, tiered tray, or tabletop display.
You can use the same fabric on all three books or mix coordinating patterns for a more collected look.

Don't overlook those little ceramic trinket dishes in the dollar store craft aisle!
For this project, choose your favorite section of a fall fabric print and cut it to fit inside the dish. Decoupage the fabric onto the ceramic with Mod Podge, then paint the outside and edges in a coordinating color.
Add another coat of Mod Podge over the fabric to seal everything, and you've got an adorable little dish for rings, earrings, or other tiny treasures.
This one is also a great scrap-busting project because you only need a small piece of fabric.
