Fall Leaf Craft

By Danielle Moore - Findlay, OH September 28, 2011

With the leaves starting to turn colors, we were in the mood to make our own pretty leaves. This is a craft that can easily be done by a variety of ages.   

Supplies:

  • Card stock or construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Tissue paper in fall colors
  • Unsharpened pencil

Instructions:

  • Draw the outline of a leaf or print a maple leaf on the cardstock or construction paper.
  • Cut out the leaf. 

 

  • Cut the tissue paper into small squares.
  • Wrap tissue paper around end of pencil.
  • Apply glue to the tissue paper "point" and then glue to leaf.
  • The youngest child used a glue stick and then just put pieces of tissue paper on the leaf. 

 

 

And then we had a beautiful collection of fall leaves!
