Leaf Lulu
A Lulu made from what the ground gives you.
Collecting leaves is already part of the craft. Walking slowly, looking down, choosing one and leaving the rest is a small lesson in noticing what is around you.
Step by step
-
Go leaf hunting
Look for a big round leaf for the body and small ones for the legs.
-
Let them dry
Leave them flat under a book overnight, so they do not curl.
-
Build your Lulu
Glue the big leaf in the middle, then the little ones around it.
-
Give her a face
Two dots for the eyes and a curved line for the smile.
Uga’s tip
No two Lulus will ever look the same, because no two leaves are the same. That is the best part.
