DIY：Repurpose fallen leaves

Materials

Leaves of a pine tree look like antlers of deer. Draw the head of the deer and stick the leaves to the head with glue.

Trim the branch of the leaf to mark the beak of a baby chicken. Trim the leaves of a pine tree to make its feet.

Put some glue on the back of the leaves and stick them onto a piece of paper.

Cut the branch of the leaves. Draw a bird on a piece of paper, and stick the leaves on the back of the bird.

Depending on their shapes, leaves may be used as bodies of insects like bees and ladybirds.

Draw on the pencil lines with a marker pen and it is done!
