Make your own fall floral arrangement. This Fall Grass Arrangement is an easy DIY craft tutorial idea. Video tutorial and written instruction included.

I love decorating for the fall season because the colors are simply breathtaking.
Watching the leaves transform into vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows never gets old.
To bring that beauty indoors, I like to fill my home with warm, autumnal decor while staying cozy.
This Fall Grass Floral Arrangement is the perfect addition to my fall decor and will be a stunning centerpiece for the tablescape I’m creating.

Prepare the Supplies
I chose two different Grass Bush Stems from my local craft store.
I don't know what types of flowers or grasses these are so I apologize that I can't help you there.
The one on the right is a tall grass with furry green cattail-like flowers interspersed.
I chose the bush on the left because of the colors of the little flowers. I wanted my arrangement to have a little bit of color besides the greenish-brown of the grass.
Unwrap and separate the grass bush.
This bush is taped at the stem, so with a craft knife carefully removed the tape and unwrapped the grass.
Inside this bush are about 6 stems with differently-sized grass wrapped around each one. Unwrap all of them and separate the cattail stems as well.
I used a lot of floral pins. I hadn't used them before but I am falling in love with them.
They are double-point pins with a bridge in the center to hold down your floral pieces.
Cut the floral block in half. It is pretty easy to cut, I used a kitchen knife.
Keep the floral pins close. I used a lot to hold the grass to the floral block.
Wrap the Grass
I apply a total of three rows of grass around the foam block.
Start in the center by laying out the strands of grass using the floral pins between the strands and go around the whole block.
The next row is about ¾ of the way down the block, again going around the whole block and pinning the grass strands down with floral pins.
The last row goes around the base of the foam block.
When all layers are pinned down, go around again and pin down and strands to cover the floral foam block.
It is looking awesome already!
Insert Floral Stems
Next, I took two cattail stems and pushed them into the center of the floral foam block.
This is where the color stems come in.
Add two of the stems from this floral grass bush. This bush is all attached with wire, so I had to get my wire cutters out to remove these stems.
Then I pushed them into the center of the floral foam block as well.
Finish with a Bow
Wrap the base of the arrangement with the burlap ribbon.
Fold the first end in, and secure it in place with a few floral pins.
On the other ends, fold it over on itself and secure it with hot glue.
You can watch the video to see exactly how I did that.
Wrap a piece of jute rope around the burlap base twice and then finish it off with a bow tied in a double knot.

My Fall Grass Floral Arrangement is finished and looks even better than I had pictured in my mind. I love it when that happens! It completes my fall tablescape.
