Maple Leaf Pin
|
 |
Instructions for making pins to wear that look like a maple leaf. A fun craft for Canada Day or Autumn.
Materials Needed:
- Construction Paper
- Glue
- Acrylic Sealer Spray
- Pin Backing
Instructions:
For each pin cut out about 20 maple leaf shapes. If you are making your pin for Canada Day, cut out 10 leaves using white and 10 leaves using red. You can print out and use the maple leaf shape below if you like. You want them all as close to the same size as you can get. Glue all the leaf cut-outs on top of each other with the edges lining up as evenly as possible. You will then have a stack of maple leafs. Let the glue dry.
Once the glue is dry, spray your maple leaf stack with a few coats of the acrylic sealer (let it dry between coats). This will make it shiny and more durable. Once the sealer is dry, use tacky glue or a hot glue gun and glue the pin back in place.
For a litle variation, you can decorate your pin with glitter, tiny stickers, sequins, etc.
