As the leaves go from green to red, the hues in your home at The Courts at Historic Manassas should change, too. Brighten up your living space for the season with these three simple, fall-themed projects that you can complete at home.

1. Repurpose a cake cover. Instead of using it to protect dessert, enlist a glass cake cover to shelter your autumnal scene. Place mini pumpkins and red-orange leaves inside a shallow terra cotta bulb dish, and then place the clear cake cover (or bell jar) on top to enclose your miniature fall scene. The craft is perfect as a centerpiece!
2. Bring branches inside. All it takes are a few branches and a glass vase to create a mini "tree" in your home at The Courts at Historic Manassas. Wedge the winding branches inside of the vase and perhaps add a pretty stone to anchor them. You can even hang tiny acorns from the branches with thread to add an extra element of whimsy.
3. Stuff your pumpkin with flowers. Instead of carving out a grinning face and sticking a candle inside a pumpkin, fill it with flowers instead. The unique floral arrangement not only adds color to your home, but also the aromas of fall.
