It’s here! Time to get your fall on. Are you excited too! I just adore Fall and can’t wait to be inspired with all your awesome fall goodies.
Today I’ve got an adorable Fall craft to share with you guys. My Baker’s Twine Apple Art.
Last month I scored some baker’s twine from Pick Your Plum (LOVE that site). I got red/white, blue/white and gray/white. I kept walking past them in my craft stash trying to come up with a project to do… when one day it hit me.
Every year in the fall we take a least one trip up to our local apple pickin’ area… such a fun tradition! So I thought… a Baker’s Twine Apple!
I created an apple in Photoshop and printed it out on cardstock paper. I made it a very light gray so you wouldn’t notice it through the twine.
I used regular white glue to attach the twine.
The tip of the white glue worked perfectly to get that white glue right to the edges.
I found some green twine and regular brown jute twine at Dollar Tree… score!
Love the little leaf…
I used burlap as my matting.
I always adore burlap in fall décor!
I think this would make for a GREAT teacher’s gift too! You could print your teacher’s name at the bottom… how cute would that be!
So there you go… my Baker’s Twine Apple Art!
Now it’s your turn. Share with us how you’re getting ready for fall. We want to see your fall décor, those yummy fall recipes, fall crafts, fall traditions… anything that is fall related we’d love for you to link up to the party!
And don’t forget, next week the party’s moving over to Kim @ Sand and Sisal where she’s going to share her Fall front door.
Please place the Countdown to Fall button in your post so your readers can find the party to.
Now let’s get your fall on…
I have to get on the bakers twine bandwagon! I love your diy apple art!
Your baker’s twine apple is so beautiful! I recently received quite a bit of twine as a gift, and this project is inspiring me to think outside the box. 🙂
hey Maryann, I wanted to let you know I included a picture and link of this project as a great companion project to my candle holder in my most recent post. http://dearemmeline.blogspot.com/2012/09/jute-twine-candle-with-enamel-pan.html
