USE THE LEFTOVER CRAFT SUPPLIES TO MAKE —> Paper Plate Fall Tree – Kid Craft Idea

Directions:

* First cut your paper plates down to look like leaves. We did a football shape and another shape with some curved triangles taken out.
* Next cut/tear your tissue paper into small squares.
* Now take your paper plate cutouts and put a good amount of glue all over them.
* Have children place the tissue paper on top of the glue in a mosaic design, until they are completely covered.
* While they are working on that, cut out a simple stem out of some tan/brown cardstock.
* To finish off the Leaves, staple the cardstock stems to the finished paper plates.
* Then add other embellishments you may see fit before setting aside to let it all dry completely.
* Finally, when done decorating your paper plate leaf, display it proudly for ALL to see!
