Paper Fall Oak Tree Branch

I don't always make my own projects, sometimes I like to bring you projects I run across on Pinterest or Instagram that you might love.

That is the case today with this almost free fall leaf project. 

I ran across Desert Decor on instagram and loved the paper leaves she made...

This project couldn't be easier and the cost was almost nothing! 

As always, I'm linking the supplies I use and the projects I've made in the bold blue fonts so you can visit these links. Visit the READ MORE sections for even more DIY projects! 

Desert Decor used paper lunch bags to cut a leaf, gave it a little crumble and used double sided tape to stick it to a branch. 

That's it! 

Now you could also use book pages which another crafter did on Pinterest, but I like the simple look of the paper bags.

The paper bag part was easy, the hardest part for me was finding a branch. Our yard has like one tree and it didn't lose any branches. 

So out on my morning walk I ran across the perfect branch and carried it with me for 2 miles. This wasn't the craziest thing I've carried home from a walk.

As soon as I got home I cut out the leaves and taped them to the branches. 

The hardest part of this project was photographing it against a wall of windows with the sun shining in. 

That cute ladder was another DIY project from years ago, I love it here! 

I think the simplicity of this branch screams fall without being too much.

Give this easy project a go with paper bags, newspaper, book pages, or even colored paper.

The best part is that it is almost free!
