That’s it, summer is over; it’s time to get cozy with autumn just around the corner. The leaves on the trees are starting to fall, giving the landscapes a gorgeous yellow–orange cloak. Mushrooms are sprouting, and we suddenly feel like recreating these lovely autumn scenes with ironing beads. With the selection we’ve prepared for you, you’ll have plenty to create and have fun for hours on end. You can also entertain yourself with our previous features on Halloween since it’s in season.
We’re kicking off this selection with a magnificent dreamcatcher featuring a deer head and autumn leaves. A creation from Okaasan le blog. Bravo for this gentle, poetic piece.
Over at Lulu la bricole, we all agree these mushrooms aren’t edible, but they’re so beautiful to look at that you’ll want to pull out your beads to imitate them.
When it comes to mushrooms, admit it—this one can hold its own.
Unless you prefer this one by Cupcakecutie with a little hedgehog out for a stroll.

On the Instagram account pysselkompisarna, we’re huge fans of the beautiful photo composition that showcases their creations so well. The autumn leaves have fallen, the rain boots are out. All that’s left is to gather a few acorns and you can imagine all sorts of stories. Perfect for rainy days when forest outings are off the table :-))
Celebrate autumn by making a wreath—now that’s an excellent idea!
A big thank-you as well to simple craft for these four pattern sheets on the forest and autumn theme. On the menu: acorns and all kinds of leaves.
Who hasn’t dreamed as a child of living in a mushroom house? We’ve found you a new home to create: it’s right here!
Heads up—gold mine found thanks to the site Kleutergroep: free autumn-themed grids are available to you. If that’s not happiness, we’re getting close.
We also really like this oak leaf.
And what about the animals? Don’t worry—they’re coming out of the forest to sneak into your Hama bead boxes. Soon, foxes, squirrels, and hedgehogs will hold no secrets for you. We love this free fox grid offered by the editorial team at Prima. You can even turn its cute little face into a necklace.

It can also be customized with very on-trend patterns.
For the more experienced, you can tackle the entire forest crew (hedgehogs, owls, fox) thanks to the swap organized by Carodels.
A little hedgehog couple—tempted?
We’re wrapping up this autumn feature with a special Thanksgiving DIY to create a festive table to remember. More than a crush—true love at first sight for this ambiance made exclusively with Hama beads: place cards, napkin rings. A brilliant idea found on Perler.com
