Is it too early for a fall project? I didn't think you'd mind...If you have a spare 15 minutes here is what you can accomplish with very little money.
Your local arts and craft store will carry this item, it's kind of a flat circle wreath form, very inexpensive at $1.99

We do love the Dollar Tree! Stop by and pick yourself up 3 packages of these beautiful leaves. To me, they look like crepe paper. They have wire and a stem too. They have 3 different colors, you can mix them up like I did, or you can use one color.

Until you have something that looks like this:

Because of the wire in the leaves, I was able to bend them up here and there...

I know I want to use ribbon as a hanger, and I love the gingham or the hounds tooth..........

But wait! What about the plaid or the check?
Decisions, decisions!!!

Ultimately, I chose the gingham, it offered the most contrast, but really all of them would be fun to use.
I plan on making 4 total to hang on the living room windows, and in the kitchen.
