Leaf Art





Don't you just love fall? Fall in Maine is amazing- just so colorful, crisp, and beautiful.
The other day Lily and I went out for a walk in the brisk fall air to collect a variety of colorful leaves. Along the way we got to talk about how God created the trees and all the beautiful leaves. Lily had a great time picking out all different colors and putting them in her bucket to bring home for our little leaf art project. After drying off the leaves I let Lily lay them out in patterns on waxed paper and then I ironed another piece of waxed paper on top. Lily started to loose intrest during the ironing part, but she was back onboard as soon as we started hanging them in our windows. I think she was pretty proud of her little project and now our living room is well decorated for the season!
