November 23, 2010

Beautifully colored autumn leaves are the perfect resource to decorate your wedding. They already come in vibrant fall colors, and they are the most budget-friendly supply of all—free! One unique way to use fresh autumn leaves is turn them into a rose centerpiece.

Diy.wed-central.com has a link to a great tutorial to make these roses. All you need is fresh leaves and thread! The leaves are folded and rolled to make rose petals, and then they are secured with thread. The finished product will naturally match the colors in any autumn-themed wedding and will provide a creative touch to your centerpieces or décor.

The tutorial has a few suggestions on preserving your arrangement. Check out Better Homes and Gardens video tutorial on preserving leaves for projects. Experiment with one rose at a time to find out which preservation works best for your needs before committing to the entire project.

Have fun!
