Thanksgiving Banner Crafts

We don't have many Thanksgiving decorations, but we do have a lot of beautiful leaves here. So Julia and I made two Thanksgiving banners using things we found outside to bring a little autumn spirit into our house.

Julia helped me gather leaves, twigs, pinecones, etc for the banners.

The first banner is our "Thankful For" banner. We traced some of the leaves we collected onto construction paper and cut out the leaves. Then we wrote what we are thankful for on the leaves and strung those leaves together with the real leaves.

The next banner is made out of all the other outdoor stuff and says "Give Thanks".
