Fall Floral Thrifted Watering Can Flip

Flip a thrifted watering can into a gorgeous DIY Fall Floral Arrangement with some neutral, gold, and leopard print florals, pumpkins and leaves. You’ll have *all the fall feels* in your home this season!

Thrifted watering can flipped into a galvanized metal watering can with a fall floral arrangement, leopard print and gold pumpkin picks, leopard print leaves, and gold acorns, with a leopard print and sunflower pumpkin napkin decoupaged to the front of the watering can for DIY fall centerpiece or home decor.

This neutral, leopard print, and gold Thrift Flip Watering Can was the start of my Fall neutral frenzy.

I saw these florals at Walmart, and it started it all! From here, my entire DIY fall decor theme was full of leopard, neutral, gold, and cremes, and I am totally here for it again this year.

I do more of a “Fall-O-Ween” vibe because who has time to decorate for both Fall AND Halloween.

Not me!

How to Flip a Thrifted Watering Can into Floral Fall Decor

I made this Floral Fall Watering Can on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below. Unfortunately, Facebook cut me off so the video is in TWO parts:

Here is how the thrifted watering can started. It’s purple and don’t get me wrong, it’s pretty but it’s not what I was going for.

So I painted it to look like galvanized metal. First, I coated the entire watering can in grey paint. Then I dabbed on the silver, the black, and the white in layers with a sponge and just kept dabbing until I got the galvanized metal look I was going for.

You can watch how I did it in part one of the live replay.

Next, I ripped out the image on the napkin using a water pen and then separated the plys of my napkin down to one ply. I then decoupaged the napkin to the front of the watering can.

Time to add the florals, pumpkins, leaves, and greenery! Trust me, I am NOT a florist by any means, I just kept tweaking and arranging until it looked nice and full and I liked the way it looked.

I glued the leopard print pumpkins and leaves to skewers and stuck them in randomly as well.

I was SO happy when I found this sparkly sequin gold pumpkin, so of course I added that into the arrangement as well.

There is also a matching neutral, gold, and leopard print Fall Sign that we made in my subscription group, The CRafterparty! Don’t they look FAB together?
