Today's printables are simple ones...but sometimes those are the very best kind. These free Acorns to Oaks Printables are not only perfect for the fall, they'll really work all year-round. They'd be darling displayed in kids' spaces, too. Because after all, Tall Oaks from Little Acorns grow.

There are two versions of these Acorns to Oaks Printables available for you to download below.

Is there anything sweeter than this quote? Tall oaks from little acorns grow. The entire quote also includes: Large streams from little fountains flow. This quote is thought to be a 14th century proverb (source: Oxford Dictionary). But the metaphors in these two lines are just fantastic to me, y'all. I especially love the acorns to oaks line in regard to children and their growth. It's amazing, isn't it? Grab either of these printable designs below.

I wanted to include a large variety of printables in this month's series. Not only in their actual function (we have banners coming, recipe cards went live yesterday, and so many more forms of printables on the way), but in their actual design, as well. While I lean a bit toward a heavier, busier design, in general, I know a lot of you really appreciate a more simplistic design, too. Today's Acorns to Oaks printables are just that. Simple. But sometimes simple is the loveliest of all.

I do have a funny side story for you regarding acorns and my complete obsession with them last fall. On our daily walks, there was a home down the street that dropped large, intact (a rarity down here) acorns all over the side of the road. I thought they were so pretty with their cute "hats" still in place. I started picking up a few and putting them into my pockets on every walk we took. When we got home, I placed them under an old glass cheese dome on a wooden server for a sweet fall display. As Thanksgiving approached, I started collecting even more...in anticipation for hosting the big meal, I wanted my home totally fall-feeling...right down to my authentic acorn display (which had, by that point, turned into multiple displays). On the morning of Thanksgiving, I set out several of my acorn domes down the middle of one of our tables, as a sweet and natural centerpiece. Upon closer inspection, I realized there were also live grubs crawling all throughout the glass domes. I about died, y'all. Not only had these grubs lived with us for a week or so (safely under glass), but they traveled home in my pockets. Needless to say, they were tossed out rather quickly in favor of some simple (non-living) candles. 

Today's Acorns to Oaks Printables are guaranteed to be grub free with hats still intact. They're also available in both black and white (it's actually just a strong grey not pure black) as well as color.

Printing Tips for Your Acorns to Oaks Designs:

• You'll be able to download your favorite version of this design below.
• Both of these printables are 8x10" prints. They are laid onto letter-sized pages for easy, at-home printing. Simply print, trim, and frame.
• These printables look their best printed onto white cardstock, rather than plain printer paper. Often plain printer paper is so thin that the color that is behind the print in a frame will show through, causing the printable to look off-color. Grab a ream of white cardstock here on Amazon.
• For the black and white version, be sure to set your printer to black and white to save yourself a smidge of ink.
• For the color version, use your 'normal' or 'best' settings on your printer.
• Please note that these free printables are for personal use only. You may not reproduce these for resell in any manner. You may gift them or use for your own personal needs. If you have any questions, see my Terms of Use or drop me an email (my contact information is in the right-hand column).
