I don't have a lot of space for Fall/Autumn inspired decorations so I have been very selective with what we have been creating and hanging around our home's living area. I am so often inspired by awesome garlands of all shapes, themes, and sizes, and decided that it was time to grab my little Harmony helper and get to work!
We made Ghosts, Spiders, Pumpkins, Leaves, and used a shaving cream painting technique for our Fall Leaves. I did most of the cutting. Harmony is still learning to plunge into what she calls, "Snipping".. Everything turned out so unique and with an elegant appearance.
Look at how we did... My other helper was my glue gun and hole punch. I used scrapbook paper for each fall creature and then hung each on up on fishing line. Our spider was made out of a bottle cap, felt fitted and then glued on top.

| Shaving Cream Painting: Combine paint and shaving cream and then swirl with a toothpick. Dip cardstock into paint (and you can remove shaving cream if there's excess..) Wawwwllaaaaa.. Beautiful, Fall Leaves! |
