Autumn is practically here...I can smell it! And it's my favorite ever! So, how can we bring the happiness of autumn indoors? Here are a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing:
10. Wax your leaves so they'll keep all season long!
FamilyFun tells you how. Then you can use them in decor--in baskets, on table runners, or in glass vases/hurricanes/empty glass lamp bases--anywhere you can see them!
9. Turn a leaf into a piece of art--like thumbprint drawings, only earthier. :)
8. Make the leaves into something else--collage style!
7. What about these awesome
clay leaf-imprinted coasters? Another great craft from FamilyFun!
6. Make a pretty autumn mobile!
5. Use the leaves as stamps to decorate pillows, journals, and more!
4. Use the leaves to make crayon rubbings, and then turn this into stationery or artwork!
3. Make a lovely autumn wreath for your doorstep.
2. For extra flavor in your barbecues (or extra incense in your bonfires), burn a few fragrant maple or apple leaves in your grill or fire!
1. Make placemats with your awesome new leaf collection...so pretty!
Don't you just want to go rake leaves and jump in a big pile of them already? Soon, friends, soon! Until then, happy crafting!
