Good Morning ladies.. I am looking for ideas for some Fall crafts or decorations that my daughter and I could do together. I have been browsing around on pinterest and have found a few things but I was wondering if any of you may have any ideas? My daughter is almost 6. Thanks!

How about taking fall leaves and ironong them between wax paper, cut around the leaves with a scissor, put a hole in the top, add a pretty ribbon and hang in your window. My kids always looked forward to doing this in the fall.
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.
I do what Julie suggested - gather leaves and press them, and I add pumpkins on the porch. Last year I had corn stalks. I just use stuff I have around the farm.
Oh my gosh, I have not thought of pressing leaves in waxed paper since I was a kid. I will have to do that this year. I put a wreath on my door that is decorated with dried flowers in fall colors.
