Fall Wreath

Today its just Milana and I and we made a Fall Wreath. I bought brown paper plates and cut out the center, I laid out leaves and shiny confetti leaves from the craft store and let Milana do the rest. I punched 2 holes at the top and made a bow out of twine .

Fall Handprint Trees

Today the girls made Fall Handprint Trees. I Traced their hand and arms all the way up to almost their elbows and then I cut that out and used it for the tree and branches. Milana and Holly made fingerprint leaves, they just love painting with their fingers. Another great way to make the leaves would be to paint their hands and do handprint leaves.

Fall Trees!

.

We took a branch and put it inside clay(air drying clay), then painted it fall colors and sprinkled glitter all over. Then the kids hung leaves that they decorated from Oriental Trading on the tree.


These Fall Trees were made with Paper bags.

1.First cut lunch bag into half inch strips.  Start at the opening and cut half way down the bag.
2.Open bag and stand it up,hold base of bag with one hand and twist the middle of bag to create the trunk of the tree.
3.Twist 2 or 3 of the strips together to create branches.
4.Tear strips of different colored pieces of paper and glue onto the branches.
