leaves, etc on and when they are finished put another piece of clear contact paper on top to hold it all in place. Makes a neat placemat.

5. Lay the pretty leaves in a line down the middle of the
table to make a table runner.

7. Make leaf people, by gluing a leaf on paper and then
adding a head, arms, legs and whatever else you can thing of.
