You should have 12 leaves in different fall colors, such as brown, red, yellow and orange. |
| Step 4.
Using your foam brush, gently apply gold, red and orange Acrylic Paint to your leaves. Tip: leave some of the texture created by the sponge for a fun effect! You can also overlap paint colors. |
| Step 5.
Use Glitter Glue to draw veins, just like you would find on a real leaf! |

While your paint is drying, cut the middle out of your paper plate. Tip: to cut in the middle of the plate, lightly folder the plate in half and cut out a half circle. |

Glue your leaves around the plate, overlapping the leaves as you move around. |
