Today's free printable Pumpkin Garland is a bright and colorful way to add a splash of fun to your fall decor. With its orange and blue pumpkins and plaid pink background, this sweet lil' banner is bound to make your smile. Download yours below.

I guess I'm one of those people who tend to go against the norm. While everyone else has nice, calm soothing whites and neutrals going on, I can't seem to get away from bright colors. Whether I'm out of style or not, I just love lots and lots of color. And this pumpkin garland is certainly no different. I even upped its color factor with lots of ribbon and ricrac embellishments. You can download this banner and see my entire color-explosion of a fall mantel below.

Annnnnnd...it's everyone's favorite day of the month: Thrifty Style Team day! Today, we're all sharing fall decor ideas on a budget. Scroll to the end of the post to check out all of my friends' fantastic fall ideas. 

Pumpkin Garland

While this probably looks like the same mantel that I've shared this past year over and over, (just "fallified"), I actually rearranged the entire thing this season. I also swapped out the oval mirror that had been up here for a bit for this rectangular one that was hiding in a storage closet. I moved my blue and white Staffordshire dog figures to the entryway, too, and brought out the little miniature busts (embellished in jewelry and ribbon) to change it up a bit. I was able to tuck in loads of flowers from my garden, as well. But, I think the thing that ties it all together is today's free printable pumpkin garland. I tried to use all of my mantel colors in its pennants. 

Printing and Embellishing your Pumpkin Garland

Supplies for Pumpkin Garland

• pumpkin printouts (available below for download)
• Be sure to print these onto letter-sized white cardstock. Regular paper is too thin for banners and garlands. You can grab a pack of letter-sized white cardstock here on Amazon.
• twine for stringing your banner
• smaller hole punch (I prefer this 1/8" punch instead of a standard hole punch...it doesn't distract from the design as much).
• scissors or a paper trimmer to cut out your pennants

I also added the following embellishments to my banner (totally optional, but fun!):

• pink gingham ribbon
• blue gingham ribbon
• orange grosgrain ribbon (I actually used a wider piece of orange ribbon, but I recommend the smaller one that I linked...I found that the thinner pieces were easier to tie onto the twine.)
• multi-colored pack of ricrac (I used the pinks, blues, and orange out of the pack)

Directions

• After cutting out my pennants, I punched holes in their top corners.
• Then, I strung them together with my twine.
• I also precut my ribbons and ricrac to about 10" long per strip.

• I used one piece of ribbon and one piece of ricrac between each pennant (as pictured above).
• I simply tied them onto the twine in a knot.

I like the extra textures and dimensions that the ribbons and ricrac add to the banner.

I think it all works together with my blue and white pieces.

I also shared the Free Pink Pumpkins Printables on Wednesday. They have several size options available.

I was able to use a lot of flowers from my cutting garden on the mantel, too. I added marigolds to my zinnias...I love the texture of their greenery.
