Flowers for Window Boxes

Are your window boxes looking a little scraggly lately? Here are a few ways to make elegant Fall window boxes for the fall season and how to choose flowers for window boxes!

First, let’s try updating a window box that still has some pretty flowers in it. We will keep the flowers and add some fall touches.

Window Box Before

Above is my before picture. The flowers on the edges are still full and pretty, but the center flowers have died off. I added a $1.97 mum from Walmart, some small pumpkins, gourds and burlap ribbon. I also tucked in some dried wheat and mini cat tails.

How to Decorate a Window Box

My flower box looks ready for fall!

After the first frost, I pull out the summer flowers and add more mums (perfect for Fall) and pumpkins. A $2.00 fall leaf garland adds the finishing touch!

    I have the same window boxes. Did you plant the mums and place the garland on top? Or are the mums in small pots? Thanks!

      The mums were planted, but I am sure you could do it either way! The garland was just placed on top.

      Boxes can be purchased at any garden or home supply store. Then you can use the tips above to decorate.
