Kids Autumn Craft - Felt collage
Another autumn craft idea is to create a felt collage.
We started with an A4 sheet of felt and machine stitched on the dried leaves - you could also glue these on if you prefer (Bella sewed up the middle of each leaf which held it into place nicely).
Then you roll over a small edge at the top of the collage to thread ribbon/raffia/wool through for hanging. Machine stitch into place - you could also staple this to hold. Thread ribbon through to finish off (use a safety pin or hairslide on the end of the ribbon to make it easy for the child to thread).





Another fun idea Mel... and so easy too!
Have a lovely weekend!

Bella, pretty photo of you!
Mel, have you ever posted pics of your house decors? I know you posted Bellas. Reason why I asked is because that coat hanger is so adorable and I want to see what other adorable stuff you have hanging on your walls or sitting on the table etc. If you've posted already, I'd love a link to that post. :)
