Let nature become your muse and your supplies as you figure out ways to incorporate leaf DIYs into every aspect of your life. Soon enough, you'll be able to find these bad boys everywhere, but rather than tossing out that big pile that's sitting in your yard, use them in your fall decor, your table settings, and even some fashion accessories. Your house will feel festive and fall-ish for as long as you want (until it's time for the holidays, maybe?).
