Bring the Outdoors In: Gold Leaf Leaves

I love using nature as art, so I was thrilled when Dria of DIO Home Improvements shared this fabulous tutorial on the blog. She wanted to incorporate a little of the outdoors in her home decor, but wanted a low cost project. Well she found one, but it looks far more expensive that it was to make it!

Here you can see the finished maple leaf.
This is the red oak leaf.
Finally, this is a white oak leaf. Stop by the blog for all of the fun details! http://gardentherapy.ca/gold-leaf-leaves/
