Leaf Garland

This idea popped into my head a couple of weeks ago, but I was too lazy at the time to collect the leaves.
We were at my in-laws Sunday and they had the most beautifully colored and shaped leaves in their yard. Before I knew it I had at least 50 in my hands and Lilia was helping me collect more.
As I was watching the Amazing Race I got out some good ole needle and thread and sewed a strand of leaves, making this garland. I love it! I think I'll do it every year.
The leaves have already turned brown and it's only Tuesday, but it still looks really cool.
