Paper leaves




Do you know the joys of Pinterest?  It's a great resource for many things.  I love it for card and craft ideas.  This was an idea I got off of it which I tried out with friends the other night that was a great hit.  We took old picture frames and sanded them.  Then we painted a couple of layers of gesso over the frames.  Next came paint in several layers.  Then the string was added and held in place with a staple gun.  The leaves were punched out of printed fall papers and attached with little clothes pins.  The nice thing is the leaves can be changed out for other things as the seasons change.  We were all very pleased with the results.
