When the fall season comes, and the leaves drop, they're always beautiful. And by using them for crafts, you can enjoy them for even longer. Here are five easy crafts using Autumn leaves.
Leaf Drawing Game
Autumn leaves are already lovely on their own, but you can take them up a notch by doodling on them. Artful Mom suggests using sharpies, Mod Podge, and pressed leaves for this craft. If you don't have any good leaves in your area, you can also do this with photocopies of leaves.
Place Cards
If you can find some oversized leaves, they can be used as nice place cards with your Thanksgiving table decor. Country Living suggests using an oil-based or gold paint pen.
