Give An Elegant Look To The Leaves Before Winter Comes
Who doesn't love autumn? Everyone wants autumn to be a little longer than long-term summer. But it does not happen in the rotation of the norms. You can never change the rhythm of seasons, but you can keep its essence alive by preserving the fallen leaves. Let's give a glance at some amazing ways to preserve fallen leaves.
Collect Leaves For Gluing Method : The first thing you should do is select the appropriate leaves for preserving. Whereas, too much dried leaves will prevent collection, so it's better to choose not so much drier and not so much young leaves. There is no need to worry because following the last procedure will not make the leaves dry easily. Another thing to keep in mind is that there should not be any holes or any part rotting in the leaves.
Finish The Gluing Work : Both surfaces of the leaves should be gently wiped with a soft cloth so that no fine dirt gets on any surface. Decoupage, slightly similar to glue substance, can be applicable for better results. The application does not damage the leaves in any way and does not fade the colour as well. Use a soft brush and apply it on the top of each leaf. Place the leaves on a newspaper and let it dry well.
Repeat That Work In Another Surface : Once the top surface is completely dry, re-coat the decoupage on the bottom surface and let it dry. This method helps to retain the original color of the leaves and retains the vibrant luster of the leaves for a long time.
Preserve Leaves Using Glycerin : Want to Preserve the leaf branches instead of using individual leaves? Then you need to follow these steps carefully. First clean the leaves and gently stroke the leaves and its branches with a hammer. Then mix well the amount of glycerin in a container full of water and put some mild liquid dishwash in it. Then soak the leaf branches in it for 4 to 5 days. In those days, pick up the branch and dry it. You will see that the pages are much brighter than before.
Preserve Your Leaves By Using A Book : Preserving tree leaves in the folds of a book reminds us of our childhood. It has been proven that placing a leaf in a book dries in such a stage that it remains intact without any deterioration in the texture. Open the middle of the page of a thick book and place the leaves into it. Check back in a week, the change will be noticeable.
