Miniature Leaf Punch – Grey

Miniature Leaf Punch – Grey

The Miniature Leaf Punch in grey is a versatile tool designed to create miniature leaves, perfect for use with scales 1:35, 1:43, and 1:48 (54mm, 32mm, and 28mm). This punch allows you to craft a variety of leaf shapes, including Maple, Red Maple, Sycamore, and Poplar leaves, though these shapes can also represent leaves from other tree species in your dioramas and miniature projects.

For the most realistic look, we recommend using dried, natural leaves in different colors. Be sure to treat natural leaves to preserve their colors, which can be done with simple techniques, or you may choose to paint them for custom effects.

Instructions:

1. Collect fallen natural leaves from a nearby park.
2. Press and dry the leaves inside a book to retain their colors.
3. Use the punch to create miniature leaves from the dried leaves.
4. Use PVA Glue to attach the leaves to your diorama.

To keep the punch sharp, punch through aluminum foil, and for smoother operation, punch through waxed paper. This tool is ideal for adding intricate and realistic foliage details to your miniature Scenes!
