Whether you’re aiming for a beautiful finished product or just something creative to do with your kids on a dull afternoon, this is the ideal craft project.
What you will need for a chain of autumn leaves:
-
Attractive autumn leaves: choose various shapes, sizes and colours. Note: they need to have a stem for this chain;
-
A strong piece of string as long as you want the chain to be;
-
Thinner string with which you can secure the leaves, or fun pegs;
-
White permanent marker;
-
Scissors.
How to make the autumn leaf chain:
-
Make sure the leaves are nice and dry.
-
Use the marker to draw patterns on the leaf, the more varied the better.
-
Allow the patterns to dry thoroughly.
-
Use the thin string or the pegs to secure the leaves’ stems to the thicker string.
-
Make sure that the leaves are more or less evenly spaced.
-
Satisfied? Pick an attractive wall and hang your work of art there.
It’s that easy!
