Nature is full of simple but beautiful patterns. Remember to take the time to observe all the wonderful patterns all around you. Following the pattern of the petals on a sunflower inspired Daisy to made a LEAF MANDALA . Would you like to make one too?
“Swaying in the breeze...
Every tree is part of my family.
Every tree tells a story...
Every tree I see teaches me.”

Step 1
Head out on a nature walk and gather some leaves, flowers and pinecones — anything special that catches your eye. Remember t take only what’s abundant and only take a little.
Step 2
Find a patch of grass in your backyard or a park. This is your canvas for the mandala. Place one of the treasures in the middle then place your treasures in a circular pattern around the centre. Go around and around, adding larger circles around the centre until you have completed the mandala.
Step 3
Take your time as you place your objects. Breathe deeply, smile and enjoy!
Remember there is no right or wrong way to make a nature craft, so have fun!
