Autumn Decoration

To dress up that empty stairway a bit
Halfway into November I noticed that the spring wreath was still hanging in the stairway of our flat... so I decided we needed something of the current season to replace it.

I collected some large autumn leaves and glued 5 of them onto a piece of cardboard.
Then I folded roses out of some other leaves and tied them on to the cardboard with wool thread, covering the 'ugly side' with another leaf.
When I made the piece the leaves were still flat, but now they curl into themselves, making it all a bit more crowded than I'd like. But that's nature, I guess.

You can learn to fold roses from the tutorial I linked below.
