We picked up some branches that were by the side of the road and put them in a vase. They kind of flopped everywhere, so we filled a vase with navy beans {which are white, ironically} that we dyed blue for a fun school project. The beans kept the branches secure.
We cut up leaves and attached them to the branches with floral wire.
It's hard to photograph branches.
I had Ella make a list of the things she is thankful for, and she put them on the leaves.
It was a fun project, and very easy.
Yesterday, I saw this post with free downloads from Jones Design Company and think I might use it for next year, or maybe find a place to incorporate it this year. We really can't be too thankful!
We do this each year, but ours has never looked so cute. :)
