Fall Double Decker Thrift Shop Wooden Fruit Bowl Decor
August 31, 2017
Do you remember these wooden fruit bowls of yesteryear? I find them from time to time when thrifting.
My project's first step was to paint both bowls.
.
Next, I lightly faux distressed both bowls with my FolkArt Layering Wood Block
and Ceramcoat Acrylic Paint in Walnut
. (more info on the layering block here) I sealed them with water based Varathane Clear Matte 
Poly.

So here are my pedestal bowls on the table on my covered patio.
A little faux pumpkin from MeraVic (purchased this year at a local gift shop) fits perfectly in the square bowl.
AND the smaller square pedestal bowl fit perfectly inside the larger bowl!
These four floral picks are from Kruenpeeper Gifts.
When I bent the stems in half, I was able to lay the four picks in and around the top pedestal base. These fit perfectly too!
So here's the easy double-decker fall display with two upcycled thrift shop finds and some faux fall items.
I have had the Kruenpeeper Maple and Berries picks for many fall seasons. They are one of my favorites.
Working on the rest of my fall covered patio decor!
Will share when complete! Thanks for visiting!

Gorgeous! Is your patio covered ? Will the wood of the items rot ? Hope not, it looks fab!

Loved the way the painted footed wooden bowls mix so well with the fall accents. Pinned.

I wasn't even going to open this email, because I thought those bowls were really ugly, but I did. Wow, you never cease to amaze me. These turned out adorable.
