I found this online and thought it would be cool for someone doing a fall theme.

That is beautiful, but it looks really hard.

That looks great. It's an interesting way to use maple leaves. It would look wonderful at a wedding or even a centerpiece for a thanksgiving at home.

i think it would be neat for a ceremony site or something. Instead of paying for a florist to bring in the same old floral pieces for your fall ceremony- you could make these and hang them or put them on an alter- they look hard but once you do one , im sure the res follow very very easy!

Where would one find perfect leaves? :purplex: *perfectionist*

And it DOES look hard, but I bet we might be able to manage. Something to think about.
