This winter I picked up a bunch of half-decomposed leaves in the wooded area behind my house.
The fleshy part of the leaf breaks down first, leaving behind just the heartier veins and stems.
I thought they were pretty so I spent some time (when I was supposed to be running) digging through soggy leaves, sticks and crawly things until I found some that I liked.
When I got home I pressed them between layers of newspaper and books for a week. Once they were dry, I glued them to cardstock and framed them with my go-to cheap Ikea frames.
