8 Leaf Crafts Perfect For Fall!

October 21, 2014 in DIY & Crafts

This fall, combine two things your little ones love the most: painting and collecting leaves! Provide your child(ren) with orange and yellow paint and allow them to create their own design. Afterwards, go on a leaf hunt; taking the opportunity to have a brief leaf preschool lesson too.

Once the paint is dry, teach your child to trace the leaves onto the backside of his/her painting. Cut leaves together and draw on veins (again, this is a great opportunity to hold a brief preschool lesson).

After your leaves are cut and veins are drawn on, crinkle leaves for added effect.

Tape leaf creations to your favorite window.

Can’t get enough leaves?

Take a look at the SEVEN MORE leaf crafts below!

Let’s start at Homework! There, Carolyn has more leaf painting ideas. She teaches us how to use crayons and watercolors to make leaf imprints that are naturally beautiful! While you are there, add a craft for mom into your schedule with her Faux Wood Leaves. She uses her leaves as vessels to show what she is thankful for. Scattering them about in a shallow bowl makes for a noticeable entryway table accent.

Does your little one love to collect things? Instead of keeping bags of leaves and fall collections tossed about your home, allow your child to paint a beautiful memory box instead. Confessions of an Overworked Mom has a beautiful memory box painted with leaves! Before I had the opportunity to read her tutorial, I thought she created a stunning piece of wall art instead… it really is a work of art that you must see!

Amanda, of Crafts by Amanda, has two versions of leaf finger puppets for you to choose from. The first Leaf Finger Puppets are made with felt and decorative embellishments. (They fit perfectly on little fingers.) The second is an upcycled craft that uses toilet paper rolls and collections found about your yard/or nearby park. These Fall Leaf Finger Puppets are the perfect craft for families on a snug crafting budget.

Did I tell you that Amanda is my most creative friend on the block? I still have two more of her amazing leaf crafts to tell you about! Up next is a sparkling project that kids of all ages will enjoy. Using recycled paper grocery bags, paint a glittery masterpiece and then…. stop…. that’s all I can say! See what she does next when you visit Crafts by Amanda and read about her Glitter Paper Leaves!

I may have saved the best for last! This next craft is a great project to complete before a fall field trip or family vacation. Use stamps to make a Fall Leaves Shirt. Make one for everyone in the family – just be sure you aren’t having so much fun stamping that you forget to get the kids involved.

#ad/gifted #ahavalove Siri, remove my makeup...S #ad/gifted #ahavalove 

Siri, remove my makeup...Siri, are you there?!!!

Ok, so that is not possible yet. 😂 But dang, you guys know I love trying new masks and peels. And after I removed my makeup, I tried out this AHAVA PURIFYING MUD Mask. 

No fillers, no fluff, no surprises in this product.  It's vegan and paraben free.  It feels so light on the skin and when it dries it almost feels like you can feel the goodness soak into your skin.  You only leave it on for two minutes and then wash it off. My skin felt so fresh and clean after this mask. Then, I applied the Ahava moisturizer and my skin felt so nice. 

If you want to try this mask or moisturizer for yourself or if you want to check out their other products, check out their website and use the code:  YOUR30 for 30% off site wide.  No need to thank me! Treat yourself, yo.
