wax fall leaves

I love the pretty translucent look of these leaves made with wax paper, crayons, and your iron. They would look so pretty hung up in a window where they can catch the light. This craft is fun for kids of all ages, and makes a fantastic free fall decoration. Get full instructions over at V & Co. [how to make wax fall leaves]

Project Estimate:

  • Wax paper, on hand or $1

    Oh, I’m so doing this with my daughter! We collect so many leaves in the fall but they shrivel so fast – this is a great way to capture their shape & pretty colors! Thanks!
