I collected quite a few last autumn when we went to visit an tree park that was in autumn leaf. Planning to do something with them, but still have not. Perhaps I will borrow your idea.<br />Have a great week and thank you for stopping by my blog last week. Sorry to be slow in getting back to you.

I have been thinking of saving some leaves - maybe painting faces on them,but then I figured they would crumple but your reminder of pressing between sheets of waxed paper gave me the inspiration to get busy and collect and paint leaves.

I loved making the leaves between wax paper hangings , and did this with my own children and now grandchildren. <br /><br />Your two leaves creation is so perfect for my favorite season.

Every year my dad would take us on a drive in the country to collect leaves. I do pick them up on my morning walk sometimes but press them between the pages of a heavy book. <br />I enjoyed the first quote and the sweet poem you wrote and now look forward to this week's mail.<br />Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday.Judith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-90099109293637896292015-10-06T12:38:23.830-06:002015-10-06T12:38:23.830-06:00Thanks for the pdf, it's lovely!Thanks for the pdf, it's lovely!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17002132319555648418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-51608552526259905782015-10-06T11:17:16.821-06:002015-10-06T11:17:16.821-06:00I love collecting fall leaves.

When we camp in the fall I pick up some from outside our trailer and spread them on our dining table inside. Years ago I bought a microwave flower press. It's unglazed earthenware and is great for flattening and drying out the leaves in an instant. My mother always had us saving leaves between book pages, but that took far too long for my liking, and most times we'd forget which book they were in. But now when I look through some of Mom's old books a very dried, very old leaf will slip from the pages as a little "hello".<br />WendySeptember Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-73838899663480937232015-10-06T03:44:37.557-06:002015-10-06T03:44:37.557-06:00These are beautiful, Brenda.

Be assured these will get used, You were on a creative roll : D.<br /> Autumn does indeed inspire, my goodness how I 'scan' when I walk out in it! And bring treasures home, mainly for my little special shelf in the kitchen. The movement of the falling of the leaves, like feathers, delights the heart too doesn't it? Difficult to capture in a photo, although I've tried.<br />A hug to you, clever lady!Alex https://www.blogger.com/profile/13677926811045888256noreply@blogger.com
