finding fall

Yesterday afternoon Lils and I ventured out into the back yard to collect fall, on a mission to create some art.
Photobucket
leaves, sticks, pine needles, acorns, pine cones...

and since Lily's favorite medium of art is anything adhesive, we taped all our treasures on paper bag.

And now our dining room is beautiful.

Every time we go outside we
bring back more fall to tape up.
