Fast Fall Festoon (or something like that)

Here's a super fast & easy & fun fall project....

Decorating with WAXED LEAVES!

I used poster putty on the backs of my waxed leaves and stuck them around my kitchen. This project may seem a little cheesy but any project I can get done in a few minutes is great in my book!

Dressing up a very plain ol' dishwasher front. It definitely needs it.

I'm not sure how long these decorations will last but at least it cheers up the kitchen a bit. And it was cheap! (cost of paraffin and disposable tray was maybe $4)

Here's my version of a double boiler. I used a disposable pan on top of my pot of boiling water. I used paraffin wax (find it in the canning supplies section of our grocery store). I carefully dipped the leaves in the wax (both sides) and placed them on some parchment paper to dry. I didn't let my girls do this- I didn't want any burnt little fingers. Ah yes, and you can see my batch of newly made soap in the background. I hope to some day soon have a cold process soap making tutorial up. It smells lovely!
