Craft Supplies:
To create your colorful fall leaf, gather the following supplies:
- Construction Paper {brown, orange, red or yellow}
- White Cardstock Paper
- Fall Leaf Printable – on our landing page
- School Glue
- Craft Yarn
- Scissors
- Embellishments
Directions:
Follow these simple steps to create your vibrant “you are unbe-leaf-able” craft:
- First things first – download and print out the FREE provided blank leaf printable listed above, on a single piece of white cardstock paper.
- Now hand over the construction paper to your little artist and encourage them to tear it into small pieces. The irregular shapes give the finished project a playful, textured look, so don’t worry about perfection.
- Next have them use school glue to glue those pieces inside the “leaf” design.
- The final step is to have kids add their own personalization, along with a few strands of yarn for the “veins” in the leaf. They can also add wiggle eyes to bring it to life.
- When they are done decorating, allow the finished design to dry completely before gifting.
- Be sure to also snap a photo and share it with the hashtag #GluedToMyCrafts or tag us to showcase their beautiful artwork. We’d love to see what you create!
