~ Leaves Making ~

Leaves Autumn Lantern


We cut out lantern shapes from cardboard
then traced around leaf designs
and carefully cut them out...........................



Next we glued kite paper behind our cut outs,
and joined with staples into lantern shapes,
and threaded wool for hangers........................




Window Leaves


Traced out circles around a dinner plate
cut out contact and placed leaves upon them
then another piece on top and.......................







Autumn Candles


Beeswax cut and modeled into leaves
softened by placing into hot water............



Autumn candles creations..............................



Pressed Leaves


Leaves gathered from nature


Then carefully placed in our press...............
awaiting to be used later...................

Circle round and round
weaved in and over
made from willow tree......................



wool so soft and beautiful
tied round and through............................
