How to make fox leaf crafts

What you need:

  • leaf – maple leaf
  • orange, white and black paint
  • big round eyes
  • paint brush

Step by step instructions

Collect the leaves. Make sure they are completely dry – if not, store them between layers of paper and place a heavy object (a book) on top and let them dry for a few days.

They need to dry completely, otherwise they will curl up later.

Paint the leaves with orange paint.

You can let the orange paint dry completely if you want a “crisp” white next, or just paint over white for a “softer” tone.

Paint both sides white, forming two rings.

Paint the muzzle black.

Stick two big round eyes on.
