PREP
Fold your paper into 16 sections.
Repeat with the other sheets.
DRAW
Draw one leaf on each page.
Carefully hold the folded paper and cut out leaves.
The sheet will produce 16 leaves per page; 32 yellow, 32 orange.
GLUE
Glue one orange and one yellow leaf together, repeat.
Make sure they overlap enough so that the hole punch will go through both colors.
MESSAGE
With the markers write one of the messages below or some of your own choosing.
CHEERFUL Cheerios
GRATEFUL Granola
CELEBRATED Candy
PLEASED Pretzels
ASSEMBLE
Cut each pipe cleaner in half and cut the seal part of the bag (doesn’t apply if you’re using treat bags)
Punch a hole through each leaf tag, where both colors meet.
3. Add your treats/snacks to the bags, wrap a pipe cleaner a bit before adding the appropriate tag.
That’s it!
We created a few extra with no tags just pipe cleaners too.
Hoping you have a great holiday with lots of food and laughter.
Happy crafting and Happy Thanksgiving!
Amanda and Naomi
