Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall.

Autumn is upon us! Although not everyone around the world has the pleasure to enjoy this season, we at Green Cleaners still believe that because being kind to the Earth is not just a seasonal practice, it is the perfect time to share some fall inspired crafts you that engage your children and keep creative minds busy wherever you are in the world.

1. Fall Button Branches





Wondering what to do with all those spare buttons that have fallen off clothes or came free with past purchases? All you need is a good strong twig and ta-da! You have a beautiful button branch!

2. Fall Leaf Initials (Door Hangers)

All you need are the stunning leaves found in your back garden or around the block, and a strong setting wire. If you're feeling more adventurous, why not go for a whole name? You can adjust the sizing to fit on a door for a more personal touch.

3. Mouse Corks

This is a good way to put those wine corks to good use. Feel free to be as artsy as you can be, using colourful card paper and pipe cleaners, markers and googly eyes. Just be sure to keep the stanley knife out of reach - remember, safety first!

4. Stunning Leaf Banners

The beauty of this specific craft is that you don't have to stick solely to autumn leaves - you can do bright green leaves, flowers or even petals of any colour that you have readily available. For a nice touch, you can use old newspapers or magazine clippings. This is a fun project that the whole family can enjoy and you can all hang up proudly across the halls!

5. Tin Bird Feeder
Once the weather gets chillier and especially when it starts to snow, it’s tougher for birds to find food quickly. Make it a little easier on the birds by making these adorable recycled tin can birdseed flowers. A set of these would look adorable lining your front flower beds or spread amongst the pumpkins in your backyard garden. - See more at: http://www.inhabitots.com/10-easy-eco-friendly-fall-crafts-for-green-kids/3/#sthash.N0ixaK54.dpuf
