DIY Fall Wreath Instructions

The Leaves

Using my Cricut and the Cricut scoring tool, I made a variety of leaves that I found with my subscription on Cricut Design Space.

If you don’t have a Cricut or access to Cricut Design Space, you can use any leaf cardboard cut-outs. I linked a variety of these in the Shop my Post banner. Etsy shops are a great resource for these.
