Hello subscribers!
It's bad weather outside, but maybe the sun is shining? It doesn't matter, because we have an unforgettable time of year ahead of us. It will be in colorful paints and with many surprises, because autumn always gives us its gifts. But, besides this, it also reveals its natural riches to us. That is why in schools and kindergartens they immediately make crafts from natural materials, together with other components. These can be vegetables, as well as paper or plasticine, and many others. other.
Children, well, just love all this creative work, because they get different funny toys that they can then play with.
Besides all this, you can even take autumn leaves and from them put together masterpieces or bouquets and insert them into or make something. Well, that's not all, cool souvenirs come from ordinary cones. So, if you are interested, stop for a minute and scroll through the entire note from beginning to end. I'm sure you'll find plenty interesting ideas what can be made from natural materials.
Well, if you have your own thoughts on this topic, please share below the article and write your reviews and comments.
I would like to start this conversation with the fact that you don’t even mean and can’t imagine that everything is much simpler than you think. It turns out that to make masterpieces you can take the most ordinary sticks, twigs, or maybe you have pebbles or shells. In general, we always have all this at hand, so why not take advantage of it.
I suggest focusing on stone products, which are always available in any area. If you were somewhere on vacation, you could bring these with you. It is advisable to take, of course, smooth pebbles. Take a log or plank and carefully glue the intended composition using a glue gun. Here you can make flowers, for example. To make the craft brighter and more aesthetically pleasing, paint it using acrylic paints.
A product in the shape of a hedgehog is quite popular, take a look. In my opinion, there is still not enough mushrooms or autumn leaves. So it's easy to fix, take it colored paper and cut out the desired image.
You can decorate a whole picture, make such a cheerful family in the form of birds on wood. As you can see, regular sticks are also involved here.
Oh, and by the way, do a still life.
For the youngest children, take the following composition as a basis. Draw a maple leaf or some other leaf on a piece of cardboard or A4 and then decorate it with multi-colored stones.
And if it’s even simpler, then choose a minimalist picture like this. Which don’t forget to decorate with colorful paints.
A straw bird's nest could be a great idea. You need to cut a circle out of cardboard.
And twist a flagellum out of straw.
And then twist a nest out of it along the diameter of the circle and secure the ends with threads.
In this way, wind it in a spiral so that you end up with a cup-shaped bed, and glue the straw onto the glue.
Then fill the souvenir with down or feathers and place eggs and pine cones.
If you are a fan of pumpkin or sunflower seeds, then you can create something absolutely fantastically beautiful. Take a quick look at this photo. It was awesome! The author took and decorated the hedgehog, and its thorns with ordinary seeds and painted autumn.
And here they were used pumpkin seeds, by the way, you can come up with a lot of all kinds of masterpieces from them. I have already shown you several such works. Now I'll show you this one. Who knows, the seeds are painted with paints, gouache or acrylic, and then glued.
Here the artist did not use glue, but placed everything on plasticine. The tree trunk is made of buckwheat grains.
They also make a stork from pumpkin seeds, this is a panel that comes out, or hang it on the wall like a painting and admire it.
I was shocked by another amazing and cool craft, I mean a chicken made from different seeds that the author made. For this masterpiece you need pumpkin and sunflower seeds, as well as plasticine.
1. From plasticine, sculpt the base, that is, the head and body of the bird.
2. Then start decorating the chicken by sticking seeds one by one, as shown in the picture. First there will be the wings.
3. And then the ponytail. It already looks funny.
Do everything carefully and take your time, it is from your efforts that success will await you.
5. Make the crest from red plasticine, and the beak from yellow.
I also really liked these trees made from beans and watermelon seeds.
There are also several types natural material connect and get a picture. For example, how oats are also used here, and the rim is made from corn kernels.
Do you remember when you were a child they used to fly airplanes, so I also recommend making souvenirs from them. I mean maple ones.
This also includes crafts made from dry materials. The sun is so radiant.
Or a clearing and a forest.
Above all, use straw or acorns.
You will get not only pictures, but also people and insects from chestnuts.
At school, I remember they always made people like this during labor lessons.
Well, if you have a handful of pistachios lying around, or rather peels, then imagine you can become a real decorator. Make a topiary like this.
Well, or a vase and insert dried or fresh flowers into it.
Well, in conclusion to this chapter, I want to amaze you. I found a fun pattern that you can easily make. All you need is a board, nails and woolen threads.
Trace a maple leaf on the plywood and drive in nails along the outline.
Walk along the outline with an orange thread.
Then begin to confuse them in a chaotic manner, as if you were drawing patterns, a spider’s web. Great, did you do it?
I also like this funny story, in which the author took ordinary logs and laid out these birds.
These friends are somewhat reminiscent of snowmen.
Crafts for elementary school “What autumn gave us”
Of course, to make compositions on this topic, it is enough to have everything you need at hand. This means you need natural material and available means. Plus your desire, imagination and of course fantasy. If it’s really difficult and inspiration doesn’t come, then take these ideas and create.
I suggest the girls take their favorite doll and decorate her with such a golden outfit.
This is how it turns out you can go to the park and pick up dry leaves and you are already a magician).
Brilliant, isn't it? Such a queen emerged from an ordinary toy.
Do this work using physalis.
Or, for example, build an alarm clock or a watch from twigs.
A sprig of rowan and pine cones will help you decorate.
Well, last but not least, probably the most popular will be a craft using seeds. I always see such creations at exhibitions in kindergartens and school competitions.

However, today we will no longer create from orange vegetable, but from natural materials, that is, from what can be found in the world around us. Most often for children's creativity they use moss, bark, acorns, leaves, flowers, chestnuts, dry twigs, mushrooms, etc., that is, all plant elements.

Pumpkin flower vase will become unusual decoration hearth
To give your apartment or house comfort, it is advisable to think decorative design space down to the smallest detail, for example, creating crafts from natural materials with your own hands. Such details will make it possible to make a beautiful, but initially “empty” living space more homely, warm and comfortable. Beautiful crafts made from natural materials are especially indispensable for an eco-style interior, but in any other design concept there is a place for hand-made decorations. Also similar interesting things will be very useful for parents whose children need to show off family handicrafts in kindergarten or school. Well, let’s be patient and let’s start making!
- Tree
- Pebbles
- Fruits and seeds
- Leaves and flowers
- Shells
- Feathers
- Manufacturing workshops
- Twigs and twigs - the most accessible remedy for making crafts. You can use them to make animal figures, stars, hearts and any shapes in general, which is very exciting for children. Dry twigs and sticks can be used to decorate a photo frame or mirror, as well as to decorate a panel, filling a certain silhouette with them. An interesting flower pot in eco-style is made from sticks tied together.
- Tree cuts and stumps also provide wide scope for creativity. You can use them to make larger items, such as watches, boxes or pencil holders. This kind of work requires male hands and skills in working with tools, but women can also use saw cuts when creating decorative ornaments. Cuts of small branches can be glued together, creating various crafts. Nice pendants are obtained by tying small cuts on ropes around the perimeter to a large base. You can use the same method to decorate an old floor lamp or chandelier.
- Bark and birch bark - more complex materials in terms of creating masterpieces. Various baskets and birch bark boxes are always works of art, but learning how to make them is very difficult. You can create miniature paintings on the bark of trees, complementing the “drawing” of the bark with suitable details.
- First, frames are made, which can be driftwood of original shapes or several branches connected to each other. The panel can be round, in which case a vine can act as a frame.
- The basis for the panel is burlap or plain paper. In some cases, you can make a mesh of straw, deliberately leaving empty spaces in the picture.
- You can create a composition from leaves, flowers and other available natural materials, and in the case of a straw base interesting solution there will be an interweaving of elements into an already created lattice.
- The last stage is the creation of fasteners (from rope or wire), with which the panel can be hung on the wall.
- First you need to carefully break the raw egg and pour the entire contents into a bowl. The edges can be hollowed out evenly, or they can be left splintered.
- Next, we solve the problem of the stability of the future vase. For these purposes, either an egg stand or egg packaging is suitable. If you do not plan to use other devices, you can use plasticine, which is rolled into a flagellum, which is tied around the bottom of the future vase.
- After registration of the container, you can populate it with residents. It can act as both a vase where small wildflowers will stand in water, and a pot where you can plant greenery, moss or small succulents.
- Any wooden parts should be pre-treated with impregnation to rid them of rot and insect pests.
- Next, in the center of the stump or anywhere in the core (depending on the idea), you need to drill a sufficiently wide and shallow hole into which a standard flat candle will fit. If you don’t have the skill to work with a drill, you can use a regular knife, but the work will take longer.
- After this, you need to sand the edges and cutout of the product with sandpaper.
- For decoration, you can paint the product or leave it in in kind, but varnish the sections. The edges of the product can be tied with burlap or wrapped with jute rope.

Most often, crafts are made from natural materials in the summer and autumn, since it is at this time that you can find a lot of useful little things. However, some materials are available at any time of the year, so neither Cold winter, nor early spring should become an obstacle to creativity.

DIY crafts made from wood (video and photo ideas)
Wooden crafts will always find a worthy place in the interior, and they can be completely different in shape, since wood is used in different variations:
Christmas candle stand made from branches
Natural composition will refresh the interior
Desk clock in eco-style
Hanging bookcase with wooden shelves

Crafts made from natural materials: pebbles and pebbles
From stones different color and the shapes make excellent crafts. You can make a comfortable mat, a hot pad, decorative panel or an original figurine.
Advice! Pebbles are the most popular among stones because they have flat areas, making them very easy to attach to the base with glue.
Decorative pots with “flowers”
Mosaic in oriental style on the rocks
Even ordinary painted pebbles look very bright and cheerful, and if you create a composition from them, you will get a unique piece of furniture. Some designers use pebbles to decorate vertical or horizontal surfaces in the apartment, for example, parts of walls, fireplaces and window sills.

Topics for crafts made from natural materials for the summer: fruits and seeds
From labor lessons in elementary school, everyone remembers children's crafts made from natural materials, for which they used cones, acorns, nut shells, seeds, coffee beans, etc. Together with children, you can create a worthy decorative accessory for the home from these well-known materials. Most often, miniature figures or three-dimensional paintings. If you attach various fruits to a “bouquet” of dry twigs, you can adequately replace the New Year tree.

Advice! Any collected natural material (pebbles, pine cones or wooden sticks) should be dried before creating homemade masterpieces. If the parts are wet, the service life of the craft will be greatly reduced.

DIY autumn crafts: leaves and flowers
Fallen leaves of various colors and dried flowers make it possible to create the brightest bouquets, compositions and decorative wreaths. Such autumn crafts made from natural materials go well not with ordinary vases, but with original containers: watermelon rind, coconut shell or pumpkin shell. To decorate festive table, you can just add such autumn compositions candles, ripe vegetables and fruits. Leaves and moss are used to create appliqués, and sometimes the result is such beauty that it would not be a sin to replace a painting by a modern artist with it.

Marine-themed crafts: use shells
Another unique material for creating DIY crafts is shells. Individual specimens in themselves are of particular interest in terms of decorativeness, and products made from them will not leave anyone indifferent. If you are lucky enough to collect a collection of shells at sea, do not leave them in a bag, but use them to create a painting or pendant in a marine style.

DIY crafts: feathers
Feathers are usually used as components in other crafts: they are used to decorate tails, hairstyles or tree trunks. But they can also be used separately if tied into small “bouquets” and placed in transparent containers. Such “bird” decor will bring fresh emotions to the interior.

DIY crafts made from natural materials: workshops on making
Making crafts from natural materials is quite simple, since they begin to teach this at school. If you try, you can create a real work of art. Let's look at the details of making some beautiful little things.
Colorful panel
An interesting panel can be made from various natural materials. Dry leaves, straw, nut shells, and dried flowers are suitable for it. The plot itself can be absolutely anything. The panel is created as follows:

Advice! In addition to flower pots, shells make excellent candlesticks. Any crafts made from shells will be appropriate during the Easter holiday.
Candlestick made from a tree stump
To make a candlestick from a small stump or saw cut, you need to perform a number of simple steps:
Unusual handmade candlestick made from logs
Beautiful Christmas composition
A candlestick for several candles, made in the same way on a long piece of driftwood, also looks interesting. If you think about attaching it to the wall or a stable stand, you can often delight yourself with romantic evenings.
A special drill attachment will help you easily prepare holes for candles
If you want to create something completely unique, something that no one has ever done before, give free rein to your imagination. Sometimes the most familiar object can appear in this way unusual image It’s amazing how anyone could even think of this.

Hello everyone!
Welcome to the pages of the ShkolaLa blog! It's autumn outside. What kind of “School” would it be in the fall and without autumn crafts? That's right, none) Children bring all sorts of different crafts made from natural materials to school every year, around September - October. That is, right now! Therefore, right now an article dedicated to these crafts is being published on the blog.
Most of the works that you will see below were found by me on the Internet. I want to convey my warm regards to their authors and say thank you for their magnificent creativity and great ideas, which, I hope, will inspire many little schoolchildren and their parents to do their own crafts.
Lesson plan:
From chestnuts
A huge chestnut tree grows right in front of our entrance. And when you leave the house in the morning, no, no, and you’ll get a chestnut on the head. It doesn’t hurt at all, it just happens unexpectedly) So we don’t have to go far for chestnuts, they literally fall from the sky.
Last year we made these “Checkers-Bugs” from chestnuts with our own hands, which we then presented to the kindergarten as a souvenir.
A master class on how to make this game is hidden.
You can also make these amazing snails from chestnuts. Very easy craft, which does not require much time.
A charming and not at all scary spider. True, making a hole in a chestnut can be problematic. Here the child will probably need the help of an adult.
If you add plasticine and a little imagination, you can make the whole of Africa!
Or a poultry yard.
And this caterpillar is just a sight for sore eyes!
I am sure that she could decorate more than one exhibition and win some autumn competition.
From the cones
And for pine cones, my children and I go to Victory Park with a basket. But there you can only pick up pine cones.
The playing field is made of branches, and the chips themselves are made of pebbles, but they can also be made from chestnuts, and even from halves of walnut shells.
From leaves, flowers, berries
Well, there are a lot of beautiful bright leaves in autumn. Collect - I don't want to. However, like berries, rowan, for example.
I remember when Sasha was in first grade, this was in another life (before the blog), she and I made roses from autumn leaves for school. It didn’t work out for us, we tried many times. As a result, we managed. It turned out something like this.
You can make various applications from leaves and flowers.
Use them together with other natural materials.
Or you can try to create a real work of art.
Rowan berries are perfect for making jewelry, beads, for example.
From something strange
And while walking around autumn parks and on the streets you can find something strange and, at first glance, completely unsuitable for crafts. For example, here is a piece of birch. What should I call it? Did you sleep, or what?
We found him and took him with us. They brought it home. Washed and dried. And they decided to turn it... into a watermelon! The shape is very suitable. Look what we got.
We needed:
- birch;
- acrylic paints (white, green, black, red);
- tassels;
- acrylic lacquer;
- PVA glue;
- plasticine.
First, we primed our entire future watermelon with PVA glue.
Then they painted the “crust” dark green.
And they drew a dark stripe down the middle.
The “watermelon pulp” was first covered with white paint.
And then, retreating a little from the crust so that a white rim remained, everything was painted in a rich red color.
To make the transition from white to the smoother red one, a pink stripe was added between them. When our watermelon dried, we coated it with varnish. After that it became even juicier.
The only thing missing is the bones! We molded them from black plasticine and glued them into place.
Now this birch watermelon stands in our room in the most visible place and delights us and our guests, who strive to touch this piece of summer.
That's how much various crafts you can come up with and make it for elementary school with your own golden hands. Nothing complicated, but how exciting!
And right now the singing kids will share with you their wonderful golden autumn mood)
What have you already managed to build from natural materials this fall? Will you tell me? We are waiting for comments)
Happy creativity!
Yours, Evgenia Klimkovich.
