Stained glass
Make pressed leaf stained glass! Gather beautiful fall leaves, and press them under a heavy book between sheets of paper or paper towels. Let dry a few days to 2 weeks, depending on the leaf. Pick up some wood photo frames from the dollar shop or discount store. You will need two frames for every stained glass project. Remove the glass from one of the frames, and save that frame for another project. Remove the backing of the first frame, and lay the leaves in a pleasing arrangement, but without overlapping, on the picture frame glass. Place the second piece of glass over the leaves as a backing, and use the bendable tabs to secure. Secure a ribbon or chain to the back. Now hang the glasswork in a window, where the sun can shine through the brilliant colors of fall!
