Fall’s the Season to Spice Things Up with Three Big DIY Ideas

fall's season

Fall’s the perfect time to spice things up—pumpkin-spice latte and spiced hot cider. Lennar goes bigger than that, with three DIY ideas that will color the way you enjoy autumn.

With new homes for sale in Dallas, TX, and in Fort Worth, TX, all tucked in 81 communities throughout the Metroplex, Lennar naturally leans toward the hands-on construction side of things. These suggestions, though, aren’t just crafty, they’ll last all season—and beyond:
 
Fire pit and outdoor seating. As we’re all well aware, September, weather-wise, is still technically summertime in north Texas—that is, it’s hot. But temps start to fall like New England leaves in October and November, so take advantage of the sublime big-sky season. While Everything’s Included® in your new Lennar home, with many new homes offering fireplaces or options for one, you can add even more warmth outdoors with a fire pit.

PrettyHandyGirl.com provides an easy-to-follow blueprint that doesn’t take much more equipment than a shovel and some string and a few home-improvement products, such as sand and gravel. Oh, and you have to provide the firewood and the chocolate, marshmallows and graham crackers for the s’mores.

Tree fort. This may look like a project that’ll drive you out of your gourd, but, no, the plan here will only drive you up a tree, but in a good way. ApartmentTherapy.com’s directions make the job look like a snap and, don’t forget, wooden pallets can be hugely useful here. Also remember, a big part of fall’s DIY projects these days is “upcycling.”

The Craft Guild. After you’ve enjoyed your fire pit and it’s gotten too dark outside for the kids to play in the tree fort, get your DIY on at The Craft Guild. Actually, that’s a great way to get someone else to help you focus on fun projects for fall without having to Google and scroll through hundreds of “DIY projects” yourself.

Started in 1948, the Guild offers a wide range of classes for adults and children, guest artists, shows and workshops. Better yet, the non-for-profit center in Carrollton is within easy proximity of virtually all of Lennar’s new homes for sale in Dallas, TX. The Lennar communities closest to the Craft Guild include Lakewood Hills and Wyndale Meadows in highly sought-after Lewisville and desirable University Place in Dallas, all within 10 miles
