Autumn Leaf Art Keepsake

Don’t you just love autumn! All the beautiful colours that seem to explode on the trees and floor. It’s such a perfect time for collecting leaves and getting creative.

We decided to make use of all the beautiful colours around so while walking home from school we collected a huge bag of autumnal loot to create a piece of autumn leaf art for Ms A’s 11 month photo keepsake.
Here’s what we did, so simple but so effective, beautifully coloured and not a paintbrush in sight!

After collecting our leaves we used some paper plates to make some flowers.

We then laid an old sheet on the kitchen floor.

And we made a beautiful butterfly!

And while she slept unaware we transformed Ms A into a beautiful butterfly!
