Thanksgiving Place Mats
Use the same Leaves Template to create these placemats for Thanksgiving. Print template out, color leaves and cut them out. You will also need construction paper in different colors (use autumn colors like yellow, orange and red).
1. Cut the construction paper into strings about half inch wide.
2. Line different colors of strings over the table vertically. You can stick them to the table from one end with a piece of tape.
3. Then, starting from the end taped to the table, insert horizontally another string of paper below the first string, then above the next, then below the next, then above the next, and so on. Continue "knitting" strings of paper horizontally on the vertical ones, until placemat is completed.
4. Cut remaining pieces of strings around placemat and stick leaves on the upper left corner to decorate it.
