Autumn as an Art Exhibition🎹🍁

I would like to showcase Autumn as an Art Exhibition. This is my new idea that looks like a DIY Autumn Project. I want to display autumn in its full capacity with colors and shapes.

Autumn as an Art Exhibition: Celebrate the Beauty of Autumn!


Autumn. Just the word brings up visions of bright reds, flaming oranges, and golden yellows. Autumn is a season of beauty and inspiration, with its crisp air, woodsmoke aroma, and crunchy leaves underfoot. And this year, rather than just appreciating autumn's beauty, I decided to create it. My project? An Autumn Art Exhibition—completely DIY, of course!


The idea hit me unexpectedly. I was going through the park, fascinated by the kaleidoscope of colors that covered the trees. The leaves, in all their elegance, appeared to be masterpieces, begging to be shown. And that's when it hit me! Not only to watch the autumn beauty! I will transform into it, at least artistically!

My original idea was really simple: to create a series of DIY projects that would showcase every aspect of autumn. However, the project expanded as I began brainstorming, becoming something far more complex (and, let me tell you, much messier!). In short, my exhibition—if you can call it that—is a carefully chosen selection of autumnal-related treasures. Instead of it being restricted to one room, it is dispersed throughout my house, turning every area into a miniature autumnal landscape.


My exhibition's focal point is a huge collage of leaves. I collected leaves of all sizes, shapes and colors. I spent a beautiful afternoon exploring the parks. I gathered everything, whether it was oak, maple, or birch. I preserved their vivid colors by carefully inserting them between thick books when I got home. I put them on a big canvas when they had dried, producing a whirling, abstract work of art that perfectly demonstrates the spirit of autumn. This is completely charming despite being a little chaotic.

What is the seasonal beauty without a DIY wreath? Create it from all that you find outside. Create one tangle to celebrate autumn's colorful majesty. Set it nearby the door to welcome the guests and you when you come into the cozy home.

The candles always are current. So, naturally, autumn-themed candles are very important. I melted down some soy wax and added essential oils—cinnamon, clove, hint of apple (my lovely). I created scents that perfectly represent the cozy atmosphere of autumn. I placed the wax into used teacups and jars, decorating them with dried flowers and cinnamon sticks. The soft glow of these candles adds a magical touch to the evening.

Next, I tried painted gourds. I went to a nearby farmer's market and bought some gorgeous, strangely shaped gourds. Then I painted them creatively with acrylic paint. I designed a collection of funny figures, each one unique and expressive. One is a cranky little pumpkin with a crooked smile; the other is a happy gourd with a bright yellow hat. They're placed in all the house, offering an abundance of color and charm.

The entire experience was incredibly fulfilling. It was about connecting with nature, recognizing its beauty and learning innovative ways to express its essence. It wasn't just about making art. Naturally, there were times when I was frustrated, like when a leaf wouldn't remain on the canvas or when a candle wouldn't be fixed correctly. However, the thrill of seeing my idea realized overshadowed these moments.


Ah, this is my mistake! I forgot something very important! What is another characteristic of autumn's beauty? The abundance of seasonal fresh and healthy fruits! Don't forget to set out on the table in the dining room and in the kitchen bowls with fresh apples, pears, plums, grapes or other fruit of your choice. I personal, like very much apples. It will be both beautiful for the eyes and also healthy when you take something tasty for eating as a break from the bustling life.

In Conclusion


At last, the entire experience was incredibly fulfilling. It was about my connection with nature, recognizing its beauty and learning innovative ways to express its essence. It wasn't just making art. Honestly, there were times when I was frustrated, like when a leaf wouldn't remain on the canvas or when a candle wouldn't be fixed correctly. However, I was very excited to see my idea realized. This overshadowed these moments.



My Autumn Art Exhibition isn't museum-worthy, but it's meaningful to me. This is one celebration of the season, one testament to the beauty of the natural world. It reminds me that even the simplest materials can be transformed into something beautiful and unique. And who knows, maybe after that I'll create a "Winter Wonderland" art exhibition! But now, I'll be happy to enjoy my DIY autumnal masterpiece.
