It is very easy to make leaf prints even for the smallest children. Whether you want to decorate a sketchbook or drawing, we will teach you how to create beautiful leaf prints in just a few minutes.

Steps

  1. 1 Pick leaves that have not yet dried. Dry leaves will not work for us, as they crumble.
    • Leaves should not be wet.
  2. 2 Cover the table with newspapers.
  3. 3 Take the paper on which you will create the print. Squeeze some paint onto the palette.
  4. 4 Paint on one side of the sheet with a brush and paint in one or more colors. Cover the entire surface of the sheet.
  5. 5 Turn the sheet over with the colored side and press it against the sheet where you want to create its print.
  6. 6 Lift the sheet gently without smearing the paint.
  7. 7 Repeat this with leaves of different shapes and sizes. The same sheet can be used up to 6 times before it loses its shape. You can create a background from different leaves.
    • You can color 1 sheet in different colors.
  8. 8 Let the paint dry.
