Today the kids and I did some leaf printing. I think it is a fun and easy craft to do anytime.I also think if you did these prints on fabric they would make great pillows.
We used: Construction paper, leaves (the thicker the better), paint brushes, and acrylic paints. We also used a rolling pin because my girls like using them.
Paint a leaf on the vein side.
Press on the paper.
Or roll over the leaf.
Peel off the leaf.
And repeat.

Wow, very pretty! Great idea!
Okay, we are so doing this project! Thanks for posting. I needed a craft for this week.
How funny:) Bear and I did this today too! I'll be posting it later this week:)
Bear wasn't too into it though and she ended up just painting. I personally had a grand time leaf printing.
These turned out so pretty!
Fun and so easy-I love that! I'll be linking.
OOO I like these! One to remember for the school year!
Beautiful! My kids and I are working on a leaf theme this week and so we will definitely add this to our list of activities:)
What a great idea to use a rolling pin to do this. So pretty, and great for making cards....we love making cards.
Thanks.
