Step 4. You may leave your leaf as it is or you can add a more personal touch by painting it. If you want the leaf to look like it is changing color, mix red and yellow craft paint. Dab it on the placemat using a sponge. Use a paintbrush to add more details. If you are satisfied with the look, let it dry.
