Savor Mother Nature's gifts with projects that capture the beauty of the glorious fall season.

Sculpt leaves and nuts into striking tabletop topiaries. Start with foam spheres and cones from a crafts store. Plan out patterns of walnuts, pecans, acorns, shelled almonds, and dried rose hips for textural variety. Use a hot-glue gun to position the elements, and fill in gaps with dried moss. When dry, rest the shapes on turned-wood candlesticks or loving cups.
