Changing Leaves Tree

Welcome back to our weekly Tuesday craft! Follow along here on the blog with your own supplies, or grab a kit from the take-n-make bin! We took a short break for a few weeks but are now back at it with our weekly crafts! This week’s project is inspired by the beginning of autumn as the leaves start changing.

Our take-n-make kit included green and yellow paint to represent the changing of the leaves and a printout of a tree silhouette on cardstock paper. So if you are following along on your own, I’ve attached a tree printout here: Feel free to find a different one if you’d like and then gather up any fall colored paints you want to use.

You will then drip your paint onto the tree, keeping it up in the branches rather than lower on the trunk. When you are happy with the placement, fold the tree in half. Press to spread the paint up to create the leaves, once again, trying not to go down too far onto the trunk. When you open the paper you will have a beautiful tree! Let it dry.
