Continuing with the homemade toy festival going on around here, I bring you, Felt Leaves!
You may remember the Felt Board that I made back in the spring with flowers, grass, and clouds. The leaves can also be used with that, or thrown into the air with reckless abandon. They float slower than paper, making the felt a bit more realistic for leaves.
Supplies:
Sharp scissors
Felt in Fall colors
Fine point permanent marker
This was really pretty easy. I freehand cut out some leaf shapes, then drew on veins with my permanent marker. I even tested to see if the marker would come off while it was still "wet"- and it was totally fine. I did some ovalish leaves, pointy maples, and roundish oak leaves, in yellow, two shades of orange, and red. I also made a little plastic bag for them, complete with a hanging ribbon, so that they can (theoretically at least) be cleaned up and hung on a hook.
