Fall Leaf Garland

07:39 Natalie Karine 0 Comments

Fall colours! I just love 'em! I wanted to buy some garlands to decorate my classroom but everything was either too cheap looking (dollar store) or to expensive (craft store). So I decided to make my own! I found this awesome template one one of my favourite blogs, a Beautiful Mess. Also, it shows my students that you don't always have to buy stuff, you can make it instead!

Materials:
❧ coloured cardstock
❧ yarn
❧ needle (big one for yarn)
❧ scissors
❧ printer

Instructions:
① Download the template and print onto your cardstock (I only printed the pattern on half the sheets).
② Cut out the leaves (I cut two sheets at once - one with the image, one without underneath).
③ "Sew" the yarn into each leaf, alternating colours!
④ Voilà!

Pretty colours!

Looks so cute on my classroom door!
