Frosted Paper Accordion Fall Leaves
These frosted paper accordion fall leaves make such pretty seasonal decor! String them up with some twine to make a fall banner, use them as table decor for Thanksgiving, or attach them to a wreath form.
While we recommend using a cutting machine for this project, you can certainly cut these leaves by hand using our printable template.

Turning a New Leaf
There’s something about fall colors that makes us so happy to see. For our frosted paper accordion fall leaves, Krista used a mix of soft pinks, toasty browns, and rich reds. We linked the exact colors we used below, but you can always use whatever you prefer for this DIY project.
How to Make Frosted Paper Accordion Fall Leaves
- Gather your craft tools and materials. Then download the leaf pattern below.
- Cut out and score the paper leaves by hand using a detail knife and scoring tool, or use a cutting machine to cut and score (recommended).

Hello,
I downloaded the SVG cut files for this project and it is not an SVG file, but a Microsoft Edge HTML document. How do I open this as an SVG so that I may cut it on my machine?
Do you have a Cricut, or a different kind of machine? Here is a full Skill Course we created to help you use the SVG files. Even if you do not have a Cricut, it might be helpful. I am here to help if the video does not get you the results you are looking for. :-). https://liagriffith.com/craft-academy/a-crafters-guide-to-the-cricut-maker/
