Hello everybody! In today's craft we are going to see how to do decoration with painted leaves. Putting them in a vase as seen is one of the options but we can use them for many decorative ideas.
Do you want to see how to make this decoration with painted dry leaves?
Materials that we will need to make our painted dry leaves
- Dry leaves. We can take them from the street, from the field, from our garden ... The ideal is to try to choose those that are not broken and if they may have a base of different colors.
- Acrylic paint.
- A brush.
- A bowl or vase.
- Rag.
Hands on craft
- The first step is clean the sheetsFor this we must be very careful and not break them. A good option is to wet a cloth and gently wipe the leaves until they are clean.
- After the leaves are dry we can start painting. How about each member of the family painting their own leaf and then putting them together in a vase? We can decorate with dots, follow the lines of the leaves with different colors. There are many options and we have no limit beyond the materials at our disposal, so let's take our imagination.
- We will let the leaves dry well before use to decorate, especially if we make thick brush strokes to give more texture.
- We can put the leaves hanging from the tree, in a vase, in a garland, in a bowl as a decoration for the center of a table ... there are many possibilities.
And ready! We already have one more decoration alternative with natural objects from this time of year. If you search our website you can find other options such as decoration with pineapples, peeling mandarins, etc.
I hope you cheer up and make crafts with painted dry leaves.
