Folklore: The Leaf Lights
This is a lil piece of not very well known folklore that comes from a few places Maryland, Oregon, and Washington mostly.
The leaf lights have some mixed Folklore.
But the leaf lights are apparently autumn colored lights that come along only in November and October. Strange little lights that hide amoung in the leaves and guide people into pumpkin patches, corn fields, squash patches, tree groves, or deeper into the woods.
Many people describe encounters with the leaf lights or " leaf people " as as charming, non-threatening, and playful.
Some ideas of what they are:
1. they are orange, yellow and red willo-whisps.
2. Fall faeries
3. Magic made by the pumpkin people {a entity I'll explain in another post}
4. Leaf people aka far or entities having a connection with changing leaves.
5. Reflections of light on wet leaves.
Making little leaf or autumn themed lights to attract the leaf lights or "leaf people" is what some witches from mostly Maryland and Oregon do from what I've been told.
Why would you do this, it's so disrespectful

Stole an old clay covered pencil today from art
The reason why you loose all your pencils is because I eat them
new tutorial, this time for "fake" medals you can use to decorate your jacket or any stuff really.
give yourself a weird award you yourself came up with, coorperations do it all the time!
stuff you will need:
-scissors
-variation of pliers
-a stencil, the shape you want the fabric part of ur medal to be, make it a bit bigger so youll have room to sew
-piece of fabric two times the size of your stencil
-sewing needle
-sewing thread, i use dental floss
-safety pin
-paperclip, or just iron wire, around 1 mm Ø
-bottlecap
start with cutting out the two pieces of fabric for your medal using a stencil
pin em to eachother, with the sides you want to be on the outside, facing inwards.
sew along the side but keep the top open, so you can flip it inside out.
now you can flip in inside out, and fold the top around the safety pin, and sew it down
make sure the side of the pin that doesnt open is the one being sewn down. the opening part should be on top.
bend the paperclip into something resembling the shapes in the pic below using the pliers, doesnt need to look good, mine sure dont
bend the edges of the bottlecap to the inside, and pin the hook part of the right iron wire thing down under the edge
connect the iron wire hoop you made (left in picture) to the piece of iron wire on the bottlecap. fold the point of the fabric part of the metal around the hoop and sew it down.
should look something like this.
now you can add decorations, you can paint the cap aswell as the fabric part, using patterned fabrics can also make ur medals look nicer.
ive seen people advise using modgepodge to seal the painted cap, instead of nailpolish, i dont have modpodge where i live but use that if youre able to get ur hands on it.
i hope this was clear, let me know if you want tutorials on any other stuff. i like doing them a lot.
