Are you looking for something neat to place on your kitchen table for the holidays?
How about DIY placemats?
you will need:
1. fresh leaves
2. crayons
3. photos
4. lamination paper (see link below)
5. scissors
They are the perfect decoration for the fall season. It is an easy DIY craft that does not have to take a long time to make and you can add what ever you like.
My idea for the up coming season is to use the leaves that are falling from the trees. You can pick any color you wish.
If you can't find the color you want you can use white printer paper and a color crayon. Just place the leaf bumpy side up under the paper and color the paper with your choice of color in a quick back and fourth motion. You will see the pattern of the leaf starting to show through.
With this you can choose any color for your placemat.
Once you have it colored and cut out place it on half of the sticky lamination paper just how you like it. If you want to use the real leaf then just stick it on the paper directly.
If you want to make it personal you can add family photos.
Below I have attached links to where you can find the self lamination paper.
