Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Fall Leaf Lanterns

Helloooooo September! Today is September 1st and what a wonderful month I must say. It is my birthday month and my wonderful daughter was born this month too. :)  September always starts the fall season for me especially up here in the north country where the trees are in their full fall colors. I just love the fall season! 

Our berry picking hill

Some of you are fortunate enough to have the pretty maple and oak fall leaves which are great for so many fall leaf projects. I suppose you actually can use all fall leaves for this tutorial I found. I think the fall leaves on these jars are so pretty. Cat over at No Wooden Spoons has this great tutorial for making these autumn lanterns. Try it out and add these lanterns to your fall decor! :)

Just writing about this is getting me all excited for the fall season to get here! 

Happy creating!

Colleen :)
