I made a crafty thing!

So at ass o'clock this morning while I was poking around the nets with StumbleUpon, I found directions for how to make a bouquet of roses out of autumn leaves. Clearly I had to try this, so this morning while coming home from an errand I stopped under some of the neighborhood maple trees and and grabbed up some of the stragglers.

Not bad for a first effort, I don't think.

The link with the directions is here, by the way. The one I made took me about half an hour total, leaf gathering time included.

Nifty idea and lovely execution... I like yours better than the how-to version, actually. I wonder if they'll keep the color as they dry out?

I might try that my self, with plastic leaves so I can keep them.
