We all know that the only thing cheaper than the dollar store is free. I've seen a bunch of crafts out there using dollar store leaves on garlands and wreaths, which is cool- I mean, they'll last forever. But the thing is, I can get real leaves for free, just by going for a walk around the neighborhood. I took some of the leaves I used in this post and stuck them to a grapevine wreath. Like so:
It's not a new idea, by any means, but it's still lovely. It's kind of turning out that my "thing" on this blog is to use natural materials. I was thinking about this post and this post and this post. Maybe it's just a fall thing. Or maybe my decorating style is "make it look like outside if you can." I don't think that's a thing. Whatever. I guess I just love leaves. Especially free ones.
Oh man! I think I found my new blog love!! I'm scrolling back through old posts right now. Our styles are SOO similar! You should check out the curtains I just made this morning (and already posted on the blog) where I used branches instead of rods. hehe Love!

Beautiful! Time for me to take a walk, I'm thinking.
