Autumn bounty

We've got a little Autumn windowsill thing going on here this week. Conkers and leaves.

Michelle sent me a copy of Martha Stewart Holiday 'Halloween' and I've been wanting to try so many of the projects. I can't find her instructions for wax dipped leaves on-line to link to, but basically its melt wax in a double boiler, dip leaves, hang to dry.

They look pretty, but perhaps I should have cleaned my windows before I took the photo! The wax preserves the pretty colours of the leaves and stops them going dry and crinkly.

It's my 300th post today - that's a whole lot of nattering. Thanks for being with me through it all.
