Painted Fall leaf art is the easiest nature craft Painted Fall leaf art is the easiest nature craft you’ll make this season 🍂

All you need is dried real leaves and acrylic paint markers. Seal them with mod podge.

The fan shape of gingko leaf does half the work. Use these for autumn decor, wreaths, garlands, place cards, or a cozy craft night.

Tip: dry and press the leaves first so they don’t curl or crack. For details to preserve leaves see the previous (linked) reel.

Fall just got cuter. 🎃 This pumpkin is made of 10 Fall just got cuter. 🎃 This pumpkin is made of 10 safety pins and 81 seed beads, and it comes together faster than you’d think.

Each hanging pin holds 9 beads, and 9 pins side by side make a 9x9 pixel art grid. Pin it on a jacket, backpack or tote, or give it as a handmade gift.

✨ 22 free printable 9x9 patterns for every season (pumpkin, acorn, mushroom, maple leaf, owl, apple and more) are on my website.

Pressed flower lanterns Every petal in these jars Pressed flower lanterns
Every petal in these jars grew in my garden this summer. No plastic florals, no store-bought Fall decor — just flowers I already had, pressed and preserved into something I’ll light every evening this season. This is what slow, sustainable fall crafting looks like 🍂🕯️

They’re really easy to make and are a great way to upcycle any glass jar. For glue you can use mod podge or make a simple biodegradable glue using equal parts of cornstarch and water (results may vary). If you’d like to add a handle you can use any sort of twine and battery operated string lights are great for warmth and charm!

Artist’s block isn’t a skill problem — it’s an emp Artist’s block isn’t a skill problem — it’s an empty well

Six weeks of staring at a blank sketchbook taught me this: artist’s block isn’t about talent, it’s about an empty creative well. So I started a scrapbook — stickers, magazine scraps, color palettes — organized into tabs I can flip to whenever I’m stuck. Flowers, textures, quotes, seasons. Open a tab, pick a starting point, start painting. No pressure, no perfect page — just fuel. If you’ve been stuck too, this might be your way back in. 🎨📖

📌 Save this for your next creative slump, and tell me: what tab would YOU start with?

Turning scrap wire and old nail polish into glass- Turning scrap wire and old nail polish into glass-like fairy flowers.

The secret to getting that perfect film without it popping? Use an older, slightly thicker polish and drag the brush completely flat across the loop.

The Quick Steps:
1️⃣ Shape your 26-gauge wire into loops (a pen works perfectly for this!).

2️⃣ Generously load your brush with polish.

3️⃣ Gently glide it across the wire loop to form a bubble film.

4️⃣ Let dry, add a top coat for that glass finish, and boom.

Comment “nail polish” if you want the full step-by-step troubleshooting guide sent to your DMs!

Save this for your next creative night in, and tag a friend who needs a new hobby.
