With autumn settling in and all those cozy colors everywhere, I wanted to capture the season in a little fuse bead project. Meet my autumn leaf, shading from golden yellow down to deep red, with a bold little vein running right down the middle.
To make it, grab a square pegboard: each square on the grid is one bead, and you’ll find every shade listed in the color list below. The design is symmetrical, so once you’ve placed one half, just mirror it on the other side — a real time-saver!
Quick tip: iron evenly, and go over the thin stem at the bottom a little more so it holds together nicely. Once it’s done, this leaf makes the cutest fridge magnet, or you can hang it up to welcome fall into your home.
