MAKING PATTERNS ON THE LEAVES!!

Let's make a few patterns on the leaf!!

Materials:

A green plant

Silver foil

Paperclips

Scissors

A jar

Iodine solution

Instructions

Choose a few green leaves of the plant and cover them with silver foil and hold them in position with the help of paperclips.

You can do different  patters on the foil like cutting circles in the foil exposing different areas of the leaf.

Now place the plant in sunlight and water it everyday.

After  three days pluck the sliver foiled leaves and dip them in iodine solution contained in a jar.

Then remove the silver foil. 

There are many beautiful patterns on the leaves!!!
