Cool autumn crafts for kindergarten. Autumn paper crafts. Garlic and red pepper braid

Hello!

Today I again propose making crafts in an autumn theme. Look out the window and see how many colorful leaves are already lying there. Memories and lines from, for example, these immediately grab you:

“Suddenly it became twice as bright,
The yard is like in the sun's rays.
This dress is golden
On the birch tree’s shoulders...”

This time of year is good because there is something to craft from. Because you can take any and then you have, for example, a little man made of pine cones, or maybe you love it? Then you can also easily make a souvenir for an exhibition, for example.

You can even take ordinary leaves and create a masterpiece on paper. In general, the list can be endless. So let me introduce you to a lot of cool and beautiful ideas on this topic.

I hope you will be inspired, and once you decide, you will immediately start making crafts with your children. After all, children of any age really love such work, be it primary schoolchildren or preschoolers.

In my previous note, we have already considered many options for what you can make with your own hands from various types of materials, it can be natural, fruits, vegetables, and even waste. This time I will show you a few more options, which are also no less beautiful and attractive.

And perhaps I’ll start with a non-traditional, but a paper-plasticine miracle. Take cardboard and make blanks of maple and oak leaves. You will also need glue for ceiling tiles and a CD for the job.

Take plasticine of different colors in your hand and roll it into a ball.

Advice! You can use modeling dough instead of plasticine.

Roll out with your hands, as if painting the surface of the leaves.

Glue the finished blanks onto the disk using glue.

Mask the middle with oak leaves and roll up the red rowan berries. This is such a cool masterpiece with an autumn theme.

Do you want to create something extraordinarily cool from real rowan berries? I propose to make a picture of rowan in the form of a squirrel. You need to draw the image of a squirrel on cardboard (from under a box, thick) and then cut it out.

Use decorative tape to connect the edges of two cardboards. Or glue with regular PVA. And then fill the image of the animal with berries. It looks original and beautiful! She's a charmer, isn't she?

The next craft is a flower vase, you can make it yourself. Take any glass container and wrap it with woolen thread or twine. When doing this, first paint the jar with glue. You can see the stages of work below in this figure:

Now prepare the bouquet and place it in a vase. And a gift or souvenir for the exhibition will be ready. Good luck!

Now make a funny little guy in the shape of a sun. Cut out a circle from colored paper, glue eyes, mouth, and nose onto it. Or you can draw all these details with a marker.

Then cover the diameter of the circle with dry leaves.

Also, in order to comfortably hold the sun with your hands, glue a stick. Or then stick it in a glass, which you can also build yourself.

With preschool children in the park, collect dry leaves and then invite them to decorate them with felt-tip pens, or better yet, with acrylic paints.

It turns out to be quite wonderful and cool, you won’t be able to take your eyes off it!

You can go the other way and make a cool bouquet. I remember I haven’t shown you anything like this before. But, I repeat.

You can give this to your mother, grandmother, or your favorite teacher.

DIY crafts for kindergarten on the theme “Autumn” (all new items)

With preschool children, you can simply use your imagination. Take and lay out magical multi-colored trees from plasticine balls. And indeed there will be a golden autumn.

In addition, you can also use paints and cotton swabs for hygiene; you can use them to create paintings and scenes on any topic.

Agree, there is nothing difficult about this, just sit there and put it on a piece of paper.

Another fun work from scrap materials, made at home, such as millet, is what the author offers.

You can also make pictures from rice and semolina, or pasta, in the same way.

Everyone knows that kids love to play with signets, so why not take advantage of it. Dip dry leaves wounds from the ground and dip them in liquid paint, you will get an excellent print.

You see how brightly and elegantly you can decorate any drawing.

Or you can go another way, put leaves (either real or paper) and use them as stencils, that is, paint directly on them, you will get prints.

Works made from palms are popular. Well, let's use this idea.

You need to take a disposable white paper cup and paint it green. Make a barrel out of a toilet sleeve and glue it to the plate.

Draw the children's hands on cardboard and cut them out.

Glue one of them brown on the trunk.

And then, in this order, everything else.

Alternatively, you can make the work in the form of acorns and even squirrels, cool!

Kids also love to use natural materials in their creations; for example, you can get by with pumpkin seeds. Print out a picture of wheat or rye on an A4 sheet of paper and decorate it with these branches. Doesn't it look creative? And most importantly, it’s simple and charming!

Read the finished description with materials and description below:

Do you want to use only colored paper? So you will need to cut strips of different colors and a couple of circles. Decide on the sizes yourself.

Fold each circle in half.

Then draw the trunk and make the crown of the tree, cut it as shown in the photo with scissors.

Glue the trunk on white paper, and the crown, that is, two circles with each other, only asymmetrically.

What is missing is, of course, colorful leaves! Cut them out in red, yellow and green.

So, what else, but here's what. You can take disposable paper plates, these are sold at a fixed price or in any hardware store. Paint them in the desired color, for example brown, and then let them dry. Cut out the body of a hedgehog or other animal from white cardboard, draw parts of the body, and let it hold a pine cone or acorn with its paws.

Probably the most primitive, but also so bright, souvenir made from cotton pads. Dilute the paint in a glass beaker and take pipettes. Carefully paint the discs with them. Let them dry.

And then glue it to any background, wow, beauty! And my mood even lifted, it was so bright and cool!

In my classmates I came across another such landscape, only it was made in a different technique.

Original works made from cones and acorns

Of course, forest or waste material is always in great demand. Especially in the autumn period. Because the gifts of nature can be found on paths and in parks and forests. If you have a desire to create something ingenious from ordinary pine cones, then here’s an idea for you, go for it.

Pour acrylic paint into a cup and dip each piece. After drying it, place it on any tray covered with oilcloth.

Then, from durable cardboard, you can even use a box, cut out a ring and decorate it with cones, they are glued with a glue gun. Just be careful not to get burned.

Carry out this procedure only together with adults.

Try to glue the cones tightly to each other so that there is not much space between them.

Here's a wreath for you, isn't it cute? I really liked it. By the way, you can use it as

You can also make a bouquet from them, who would have thought, but it looks so beautiful, especially if the vase is made by your own hands.

I recently showed you a lot of ideas about what else can be done on this topic. These can be bunnies, hedgehogs, owls, foxes, etc. and any other animals. Here are a few more ideas for inspiration.

I would like to show you one more video. In it you will see a bunch of new products this year. Enjoy watching.

As for acorns, there are also creation options from them. People or animals are usually made, but also cutlery and cups. Additionally, matches or twigs are used.

Well, if you want to distinguish yourself, then make an original thing, this is a brooch. Good luck.

Crafts “Autumn Fantasies” for school (grades 1-4)

And now I propose to make a craft according to this master class in the style of modular origami. Wow, I’ve been asked for a long time to show how you can quickly and easily make maple leaves like this out of paper. So take note, because it is with these blanks that you can decorate the interior of a group, class, and even at a gala event, a matinee.

And then please, take it and fantasize. Here's how they decorated it on the Country of Masters website.

The next option, which is loved by younger schoolchildren, is of course the main character - a hedgehog.

In order to create it, you will need everything that you see in the picture below. This is colored paper, a glue stick, a felt-tip pen.

Take brown colored paper and fold it in half. Cut along the fold line with scissors, you will get two rectangles.

Then glue them together to form a stand.

After the glue has dried, draw and make round edges on the workpiece. Cut along the line. Using pink paper, also draw outlines in the form of a semi-oval.

It is also necessary to cut out round-shaped ears and paws from it. Arrange the parts in the correct proportions as shown below and glue to the base. Scatter real dry leaves or cut them out of colored paper.

Now all that remains for the hedgehog to do is make the spines; make cuts along the edge of the brown paper.

Draw the eyes and face. Your fabulous little animal is ready.

Using an accordion, make the work in the shape of trees. Look how original it looks.

Also, one of the favorite characters among children at any time of the year remains. I suggest making it this time from a CD. And again the paper will have to be folded like an accordion, in general, look at the instructions in the pictures and create.

What an unrealistically charming sun it turned out to be; my spirits lift when I see it.

And if you don’t have colored paper, then use napkins, although take them in a single color. Cut into small squares and roll each piece into balls.

Draw any still life, in this case the author depicted trees and a river. And sit and painstakingly glue each ball until the whole image is formed.

The next idea is work from cotton swabs, which, as you can see, were initially painted, their heads, in the desired color.

And for those who want to comprehend quilling, or are deeply interested in it, I would like to invite you to consider such a masterpiece.

Here's another fascinating idea, look how cool the author came up with it. Do you want to make it happen? Then let's get down to business. It will turn out to be just a living corner.

And if this is too difficult for you, then take a regular package and follow the photo description.

Beautiful souvenirs made from natural materials and vegetables

I think that every time you visit such exhibitions you always rejoice. Because such events are always fun. Thanks to positive and creative works. Which are made from all sorts of things.

You can take absolutely any vegetables and fruits and use them to build

The simplest and easiest idea is a basket with such characters. As you can see, the author used a lot of vegetables that are found in any home.

And even build the heroes Smeshariki and Minions, catch the description:

Here are a few more thoughts that will lead you to your next creation. You can see the rest here. By the way, you can create with it too! There would be a desire.

Well, I want you to build Gena the crocodile. Especially when there are instructions with a description. We don't need much: carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes and toothpicks.

Use a knife to cut a piece of the carrot into a cylinder shape, and then make something similar to a mushroom.

Cut off the tip of the cucumber, and cut the vegetable itself in half, but not all the way.

Connect the resulting parts with a toothpick. The result was the head of a crocodile.

Then make eyes from cucumber pulp and black olives.

Stick them also into the head using wooden sticks. Cut the tongue out of the tomato.

For the body, use a slightly rounded cucumber, and design the legs like this.

You can also make an accordion from the greens pulp, but this is optional.

Place the weirdo on a plate and run to school or kindergarten to amaze everyone.

And then there are these faces, oh, when I saw them, I was really scared). And you?

How to make an applique from leaves: quickly and beautifully

For such works, you can take absolutely any character and easily decorate it with dry leaves that you collected in the park. For example, you can lay out funny owls using cardboard and paper.

Or you can make a huge owl entirely out of leaves.

Or plant the birds on a branch decorated with bunches of rowan berries.

You can take any face, preferably some animal, cut it out, and then decorate it.

And with what, of course, leaves. Collect them and place them on a sheet of newspaper so that they do not shrink when drying.

Maple leaves are best suited as decoration, for example a lion.

Or perhaps you will be interested in working in the form of a little lion cub.

Today my kids and I made these creations. And we actually sat down to do it, and then my mother remembered that she forgot to buy glue. I’m thinking what to do, mine are about to go broke))). It's good that there was plasticine. And this is what happened.

You can easily build a vase using a balloon.

Or make an applique of seeds and plasticine.

Or you can imagine the work in the form of a three-dimensional toy.

Autumn paper crafts for kids with templates

So we’ve reached another subtopic in which you can safely take templates and print them on a printer. And of course, create, get new masterpieces, adding some of your own twists.

If you use this drawing, then later you can color it, or you can safely make a greeting card and write in it

You can take absolutely any piece of paper you like as a sample, or you can draw it yourself with a pencil. Fold a blank sheet of paper in half, and then cut out an image of the blank on one side. Cut crayon squares from office construction paper.

Scatter them in a chaotic manner and glue them with a glue stick.

This is how mysterious the postcard looks.

Now let’s take a closer look at one more master class. Before that, I already gave you some instructions, but this one is more understandable and the technology is different.

You need to cut 10 squares.

And then fold each of them like this.

This kind of work takes little time, don’t worry, you can do it in 20 minutes.

And then you have to glue each blank to each other.

Of course, looking at the pictures, everything becomes clear.

Don’t forget about other options; by the way, this craft somehow looks like

You can fold the leaf into a butterfly shape.

Also difficult, as you can see there is nothing, fold it like an accordion and glue it together.

Moreover, you can make it in completely different shapes, use your imagination.

You can make it even more interesting so that the leaf turns out to be three-colored.

Or make a bookmark using thread.

In addition, you can make a pumpkin out of paper if you cut a bunch of long strips with scissors.

How you decorate it is up to you, you can use a toothbrush.

Well, and finally, take these ideas and dress up your favorite cartoon and fairy tale characters.

Well, according to tradition, I’m giving you a few coloring pages, in case they come in handy in your spare time.

Or use an anti-stress coloring book for creativity.

That's all, dear creators! I wish you a creative approach to business. And may autumn crafts win your heart and make you want to make more next year. I wish you success and patience! Bye.

Best regards, Ekaterina

What is autumn? This is perhaps the most controversial time of the year. On the one hand, this is a sad time, on the other, it’s a charming time. It was not for nothing that great poets sang autumn in their poems. At this time, the warmth, lush foliage of the trees and the lush grass of the fields say goodbye to you, fairly basked in the sun and tanned, giving way to cold, rain and devastation. But is everything so sad? Of course not, because September and October leave a sea of ​​wonderful gifts and provide the opportunity to make beautiful crafts on the theme “Autumn” with your own hands.

What natural materials might be useful?

Crafts on the theme of autumn can be made without natural materials, but with them the work will be much more reminiscent of this time of year. And the collection of such raw materials itself is a separate fascinating ritual. And the smell of natural materials, which immerses you in a special state and brings you closer to nature?

What will be useful? Fallen leaves of yellow, green and red color spectrums, acorns, chestnut fruits, dried (or hard) berries and fruits, birch bark, dried or withered grass and flowers, seeds, tree bark, straw, pine cones, moss, nuts.

The material must be carefully prepared: cleaned of dirt and soil, dried (or brought to a state where the appearance will no longer deteriorate).

What autumn-themed crafts can be like?

DIY crafts on the theme “Autumn” can generally be divided into:

• durable– those that will serve for months and years or will not lose their original appearance for a long time (this includes prints on clothes using leaves, crafts made from hard chestnuts, acorns and seeds);

• temporary– those that are made for temporary exhibitions, kindergartens, schools. Almost always these are autumn crafts with children made from leaves, berries, and plants.

Typically, autumn-themed crafts are joint creativity between an adult and a child. Without children, adults rarely get involved in such things, unless they do it professionally.

Children with their boundless imagination love to create autumn-themed compositions, decorations, accessories and even clothing items. The bright colors of this time of year, plus a truly exciting process, turn joint creativity into a real holiday.

Children's DIY autumn crafts today have such a variety that your eyes run wild. I want to try everything at once. Flowers made of leaves, beads made of rowan, appliques made of seeds, paintings made of straw, candles made of flowers. How to choose? You should pay attention not only to the child’s preferences, but also to his age and his desire to participate in the process. If the baby is extremely independent and wants to do almost everything himself, but is young for years, you need to choose simpler crafts.

Crafts for “Golden Autumn” for the little ones (2-3 years)

Kids can make the following DIY crafts about autumn on their own or with the help of adults:

• applications from leaves and/or seeds;

• liquid candles with preliminary placement of leaves, pine cones, dried flowers and herbs into the container;

• simple coloring pages with an autumn theme;

• beads made of rowan, rose hips, acorns;

• walnut boats with leaf sails;

• little people and animals from fruits, made by attaching eye-caps from acorns, arms and legs-sticks to them (toothpicks are a great help here).

What crafts on the theme “Autumn” can preschoolers make with their own hands?

Older children (4-6 years old) usually already know how to use scissors, so you can safely introduce paper crafts on the theme “Autumn”:

• coloring pages Subsequently, you can not just color the drawing on paper, but try to paint a cutting board or decorative plate.

• simple origami;

Origami maple leaf

• paper applications;

• paper lanterns with curly cutouts in the form of trees and leaves;

• crafts with weaving strips of paper (paper weaving).

As you can see, autumn crafts made from paper can be no less interesting and colorful than those made from natural materials, but it is still necessary to introduce children to the numerous gifts of nature.

Crafts made from natural materials for children 4-6 years old:

• crafts made from pine cones (hedgehogs, goblin, animals, spiders, etc.);

• men and animals made from acorns, chestnuts and matches;

• more complex applications from leaves and seeds. Here you can take leaves of different shapes, different colors and sizes and make a picture that is close to reality. Suitable seeds: pumpkin, sunflower, squash, flax. You can also take hard peas in halves, sesame seeds - in general, the seeds should also be of different shapes, different colors and sizes in order to make the picture more lively and colorful.

What crafts can elementary school children make for the Autumn holiday?

Children of primary school age can be asked to make very complex products (with the participation of adults):

• large compositions from various materials, plasticine. It could be a forest clearing or a house with a vegetable garden, or a swamp with mushrooms and berries, or animals. The limitation is only imagination;

• complex crafts from plasticine, where you need to sculpt a lot of multi-colored parts. If your child likes to sculpt, you can switch to polymer baked or self-hardening modeling clay. Then the product will last for many years;

What crafts can adults make for children for the Autumn holiday?

DIY crafts on the theme “Autumn” can be not only the joint creativity of an adult and a child. This can be a pleasant surprise for the baby, carefully made by the parent. Usually these are beads, a flashlight for the children's room, a brooch or bracelet, even a character from your favorite cartoon.

Want to make DIY fall crafts for kids?

Here are some great ideas:

• beads made of berries, chestnuts, acorns, nuts. If you know the technique of threading (otherwise known as beading), you can not just thread materials, but create a real masterpiece;

• brooches, hairpins made of leaves, berries, cones. They can be made from cardboard or cut out from lids for preserves - these are usually found in every home;

• leaf wreaths. Often maple leaves are used for them - they are large and usually have a beautiful color. With skill, wreaths can be supplemented with berries, acorns, and other leaves. What little fashionista wouldn’t want to try on a fiery red maple crown made by her mother’s caring hands?

• bracelets made from gifts of nature (you can use strips cut from preserves or plastic bottles as a basis);

• dresses made of leaves and flowers. Yes, yes, this can be done. There are many master classes on the Internet. The science is not complicated, but it is quite painstaking;

This will require special equipment and some knowledge, but in the age of the Internet, getting it is not a problem at all.

Do-it-yourself autumn-themed crafts in Russia have long become something traditional, ritual, and one might say a national feature. This is an opportunity to show your imagination, make something beautiful with your own hands, teach children new skills, have an interesting time, brighten up the autumn melancholy, and decorate the house.

With the advent of social networks at the end of September, photos in maple wreaths, willow skirts, and rowan beads appear in albums. Every year you can see new children's crafts with your own hands and add new ideas for creativity to your piggy bank. Adult craftsmen present knitted, sewn, and woven autumn crafts to the public, using complex techniques of macrame, embroidery, and patchwork. The Internet has not replaced manual labor - on the contrary: it has made ideas and master classes accessible to everyone.

Good afternoon everyone. “So autumn has come, our garden has turned yellow, the leaves on the birch tree are burning golden”... Reading it becomes a little sad, although the fact is undeniable that at this time of year nature becomes truly magical and indescribably beautiful. It is also autumn that gives us a generous harvest of vegetables and fruits, berries and mushrooms.

And it’s great if you have the opportunity to go out into nature at this time to walk through the autumn forest and breathe in the fresh and already cold air. And if you also have children, then turn your walk into a treasure hunt: collect bright and carved leaves, acorns and chestnuts, interestingly shaped cones and pebbles, and other natural materials. And then, when you come home, save all this natural beauty in crafts.

1. Make a stem for a mushroom from a pear, and a cap from an apple. Also, from the remaining piece of apple, cut out the palms and legs and pierce them with toothpicks.

2. Connect these parts together. Then make indentations in the pear for the eyes and nose.

3. Insert the berries into the indentations for the eyes and nose. Cut out the mouth and make and insert a tongue from the cabbage. You can also cut a fringe out of cabbage and tuck it under the hat. Place the resulting mushroom on a beautiful saucer.

Making DIY crafts from zucchini for school exhibition

From such a vegetable as zucchini you can perform various works of any level. At the same time, getting this vegetable will not cause any difficulty. Zucchini is a pliable and unpretentious material. Therefore, it is 100% suitable for making crafts.

I would like to invite you to watch the video story. And maybe you will make and choose zucchini crafts from this video.

Ideas for autumn crafts in the aquarium style

And finally, a couple of original works, all made from the same familiar materials, but on a marine theme. Take a look, I think you will like this idea too.

Autumn leaves are mainly used in crafts. And they make fish out of them.

In this product, fish were made from walnuts, and grass and shells were also added.

This is how delicious it turns out if you also sprinkle the bottom with cereal.

And here comes the goldfish, a fish for all the fish!

Here is another variation of the aquarium.

Or this idea with the inhabitants of the seabed.

Well, and also work with fish from leaves, stones and plasticine.

As you can see, in addition to the usual work, you can always create something new and interesting. But don’t forget about old ideas. After all, in any case, handmade crafts always turn out special. And the autumn theme allows you to create endlessly! That's all for me. Bye bye.

Greetings! Today I have selected a lot of ideas for you on the theme “Autumn”. More precisely, we will figure out how to make autumn bouquets with our own hands. With the start of classes in schools and kindergartens, parents are often puzzled by what needs to be done. I think that if you have fruits, leaves and dried flowers, it is easiest to create a composition of flowers.

And they also turn out so beautiful that they are suitable as a gift for a ball, for Teacher’s Day and for the autumn holiday itself.

And to make it easier for parents, I decided to make a selection where I collected the most interesting ideas for bouquets using everything that is at hand: from paper to twigs and seeds. There will be simple ideas and more complex ones for those who feel a creative touch and want to create a masterpiece.

One of the most accessible autumn materials is leaves. They have already turned red and yellow. They are collected into beautiful compositions, used as a basis for bouquets, or simply placed in a vase without embellishment.

And we can make a rose out of them. And then make a bouquet from such roses and buds. This is not very difficult to do and for 1 rose you will need 5-7 leaves. This depends on the level of openness of your flower.

It is important to take those leaves that still bend easily and do not break. Unfortunately, nothing will come of dry things.

By the way, take them in so that there is a long tail at the base. It will help you hold the workpiece comfortably and tying a “rose” with it will also be easier.

So let's take:

• 5-7 leaves,
• threads

Let's start by choosing the smallest leaf available. Fold it in half horizontally.

And twist it into a tube. This is what we got in the middle.

Hold the middle with one hand. And the second one folds the next sheet horizontally again. We wrap it around the middle. We don't tighten it too much.

We wrap this way until we run out of leaves. Not all of them can be used if you want to make a bud.

We open the “petals” and tie all the tails with thread. To make it more convenient, ask your family for help.

This is how the blanks turned out. They can already make a bouquet.

I think that any schoolchild will be able to repeat these simple steps and create a bouquet of “roses” on their own.

Now let's compose the composition. After all, in floristry, not a single bouquet is made without it. The idea always comes first.

You can combine such roses with fresh flowers, dried flowers or rowan.

The main thing is that there are no empty spaces in the bouquet, otherwise there will be a feeling of incompleteness. Here is an example with the addition of regular leaves. After all, they are also beautiful in themselves.

And here the flowers lie on a beautiful background and the middle is highlighted with a bright accent.

If you try, you can make roses of different shades that will look very realistic in a bouquet.

It’s not a shame to give such beauty at the Autumn Ball or on Teacher’s Day.

It is very beautiful when leaves of different colors and shapes are combined. Nevertheless, our autumn is very diverse and plays with all the colors of the rainbow.

Another idea is to use green plant branches.

I really liked how the leaves were beautifully wrapped in a tube in this photo. This immediately highlights the composition and makes it individual.

Here, in a composition with autumn fresh flowers, the leaves also actively attract attention. Agree, it turned out very original.

Another small composition on the theme “Autumn”. Very cute and beautiful idea with an apple.

Just go to a park or a forest and you can immediately collect a whole bag of material. Branches of birch, maple, rowan, apple tree - anything will suit us.

A variant of an autumn tree in the form. It can also replace a bouquet. All the gifts of the trees are used: from leaves to berries and cones.

You don’t have to fold the leaves, but simply collect them beautifully and tie them with a ribbon. You can maintain the color style. For example, take only green or only red leaves.

But you can use the branches themselves! Look how self-sufficient they look.

I think that any mother would be happy to help her child create such compositions. And collecting leaves together in the woods during a walk will only bring the family closer together.

Autumn bouquets of vegetables and fruits

You can use autumn fruits. Bouquets with them are also very popular now and look quite unusual.

For creativity you need to choose beautiful, small fruits. No dark spots or wrinkled sides.

Let's begin to consider possible options for compositions of fruits and berries. And then we’ll smoothly move on to vegetables.

Here is an idea with tangerines and rowan berries. Fruits are strung on skewers for kebabs. For strength, they are fixed with tape or special floral tape.

Here you can see that the apples are strung on skewers. They combine beautifully with asters and rowan and bird cherry. My parents made a very original stand from birch bark.

Apples go well with any leaves and berries.

Here the emphasis is on rowan. Twigs of coniferous trees add splendor to the composition.

These bouquets are made to order. Here it is important to firmly connect all the workpieces together.

I was captivated by the idea of ​​painting fruits. For example, such “golden” apples look very expensive. You won’t immediately realize that they are real!

Variations with fruits, cones and berries in a pumpkin. A little later I’ll show you how you can use this vegetable.

You can put the composition not in a pumpkin, but in a zucchini.

Apples go well with the “roses” we made earlier.

Step-by-step video about making fruit compositions.

Now I’ll show you options for bouquets with vegetables. You may not collect all types. And turn on the designer’s imagination and use only two types - pepper and garlic. Look what came of it.

Small fruits make cute arrangements.

The entire space between the vegetables, where the joints could be seen, was covered with rowan berries.

By sticking to a certain color scheme, you can create a very stylish bouquet. For example, using cabbage and succulents. After all, autumn can be different.

In this photo, I was captivated by the background of rolled leaves. The composition is clearly visible here. The highlight is in the form of earrings that fall down under their own weight.

Look how beautiful the idea of ​​painting the ears looks. Very bright and lively.

Now let's move on to the very common idea of ​​using a pumpkin as a vase for flowers and herbs.

Bouquets with pumpkin

It is convenient to place bouquets in a pumpkin. But in order for them to stand and not wilt longer, all plants need water. How to place it in this large vegetable?

There are three most convenient options: using a floral sponge, using a tin can, or combining both of these options.

So, take out the middle with the seeds from the pumpkin. They can be dried and used for appliqués and panels. More on this below.

And put a floral sponge inside. It is sold in many flower shops, as well as in creativity departments.

Then you water it with water and insert flowers. Most often, this option is necessary when you create a bouquet of fresh flowers. The sponge also helps keep the shape of the composition when the stems are stuck into it.

You can also put a tin can inside. In this case, there is no need to remove all the pulp. The main thing is that the jar is not visible. We use canned pineapple containers. You can also pour water into it, but you don’t have to do this if you are using dried flowers.

For these purposes, it is better to take a wide pumpkin.

Instead of a jar, you can use a glass. Its top side indicates the diameter that needs to be cut to fit the glass. For fresh flowers, put a floral sponge inside and saturate it with moisture.

Ideas for compositions in a pumpkin are in front of you.

A vegetable vase can be decorated with ribbons or braid.

There are only fresh flowers here.

And here we see the use of spruce branches, bunches of bird cherry and rowan.

The whole composition is on the theme “Autumn”.

This craft will appeal to both schoolchildren and children in the older group of kindergarten.

The main thing is not to be afraid to use the materials that are at hand. Making a bouquet is a very entertaining and creative process.

How to make paper compositions on the theme “Golden Autumn”

There is an idea to make autumn bouquets from paper. Initially, flowers are prepared from which the composition is created.

It turns out very beautifully when using the origami technique.

Interspersed with .

Let's add leaves in autumn shades to them.

This master class describes the detailed process of creating leaves.

Coat the ends of the accordion-folded sheet with glue and connect.

Maple leaves can also be made using the origami technique.

Here is a detailed master class.

If it’s not clear from the photo, I’ll attach a video.

Everything is described in detail here. I think that using the video you can definitely create a craft by repeating all the steps step by step.

Master classes and ideas from natural materials for kindergarten

For small children you need something simpler. Therefore, I suggest using natural material for bouquets. We will look at ideas from pine cones, peanut and pistachio shells, pumpkin seeds, and dried flowers.

From the cones

It turns out that cones are very similar to flowers. Especially if you put unopened things in water. They become saturated with moisture and open up. My child, when he saw these metamorphoses, was simply delighted.

The cones can also be attached to skewers, sushi sticks or toothpicks. To create a round composition, round floral foam balls are used. I made them from regular polyurethane foam.

They come in different diameters. All kinds of plants and materials are stuck into them. You can use both fresh flowers and branches, and any other materials.

A beautiful bouquet when the pine cones are turned with their tips facing forward. It turns out to be a very neat composition. The tips themselves are decorated with beads, ribbons, rhinestones and flowers. They stick well with hot glue.

How do you like this autumn composition? I think it's very original.

The cone also lends itself well to painting. They can be painted with gouache or spray paints. The intensity of the color depends on the number of layers.

dense gouache can also cover up the natural brown tint of the buds.

If you remove the inner branches, the flowers will turn out more open.

Or you can take just one thing and make it the center of the composition.

Another idea from the gifts of the forest. Everything that lies near the trunks and under our feet is used.

Agree, pine cones are an excellent material for creating an autumn bouquet for children in kindergarten.

From pumpkin seeds

Pumpkin seeds can also be used as flower petals.

There are two options for buds. The first is to glue the seeds on paper in several rows. Here is a detailed master class.

The middle can be painted or covered with a piece of colored cotton wool.

You can make daisies like this using plasticine.

Or flowers like this.

Let's take a closer look at how this is done. Rows of pumpkin seeds are inserted into a plasticine ball. You can form different buds and inflorescence options.

Also very interesting, don’t you agree?

From peanut shells

We rarely buy peanuts, but we often pick up shells from friends after men's get-togethers. To make such bouquets for teachers once a year in kindergarten.

You can get whole “hydrangeas” from pistachios.

It is convenient to attach them to plasticine.

It will be easy for children to make these daisies. Younger children can insert petals from the shell into plasticine. And the older ones connect them with hot glue.

Using floral balls (I wrote about them a little higher), you can create the correct spherical shape of a sunflower. Look how organic the coffee beans look. After all, these are all the gifts of autumn.

Whole pistachios and peanuts can be given as gifts. To do this, put them into little bags and decorate them with corrugated paper.

With walnuts

Of course, we won’t ignore walnuts. You can make an autumn topiary from the shells.

Walnut bouquets with whole fruits look very presentable.

You can cover the voids with pieces of napkins.

For fun, you can combine all of the listed natural materials and fruits.

From dried flowers

Dried flowers fit our fall theme very well. They look noble and can be painted. They will complement any composition.

Anything will do - dry herbs, cereals, leaves.

And here the spikelets were painted.

Cotton flowers make the composition very delicate and airy.

A beautiful bouquet of dried flowers in a stand decorated with branches.

More ideas for you.

An interesting frame for a bouquet of branches.

Mix dried flowers and rose leaves.

Golden ears have a very presentable appearance. But you’ll have to go a long way to get the material – to the field. Look for wheat that has not yet been harvested.

Dry grass and leaves combine harmoniously.

I just loved many of the ideas.

Applications with flowers on the theme of autumn in the middle group

For the older group, you can offer ideas for applications or panels. They are made from leaves, dried flowers, cereals and seeds.

An idea with a vase with twigs inserted into it. Only the side edges and bottom are glued. The top is left free to allow material to be inserted.

Use a box of chocolates as a base and frame for the panel.

Leaves, pine cones and coffee beans create such an autumn bouquet.

Different types of pumpkin seed flowers for applique.

Use pine branches.

All bones, seeds and grains stick well to hot glue.

Leaves and flowers made from paper are no worse than natural materials.

You can also take a regular frame for the base.

You can make simpler applications in the form of bouquets, or you can make them more complex.

Autumn ideas for bouquets of candies and corrugated paper

Flowers made from corrugated paper look incredibly realistic and beautiful. For Teacher's Day, there is an idea for a small bouquet of sweets.

Or such a gift idea.

Flowers for gifts can be wrapped in autumn leaves.

You can use these flowers without candy.

Let's combine sweets with natural materials: dried flowers, cones and leaves.

Composition with sweets in a basket.

And now a detailed master class on creating roses from corrugated paper. It can be easily stretched and folded and can imitate real leaves.

The colors of autumn are very cheerful and any yellow, orange and red flowers go well with them.

I am attaching a video on how to make several types of flowers.

Corrugated paper is sold in bookstores, stationery stores, floristry, craft, and party stores.

Ideas on how to arrange a bouquet

And now you have already decided what your autumn bouquet will be made of, you have even made preparations. But you need to somehow design it so that it has a more marketable and presentable appearance!

Therefore, I offer several ideas.

For example, let’s take the now popular craft paper. Or packing tight mesh or fabric.

You can make a beautiful envelope from the same corrugated paper. With this design, there is no shame in giving your craft.

Insert the craft into a paper bag. It can even be rolled from scrapbooking sheets.

Polyurethane foam, foam rubber, floral sponge or polystyrene foam are inserted inside.

Ideas made from reed napkins turn out beautifully.

You will need:

• napkin,
• can,
• cardboard,
• pencil,
• hot glue (glue gun).

Place the jar on the cardboard and trace the bottom. We cut it out and stick it on the tin. We will also cover the sides with cardboard.

We measure the height of the walls of the tin and cut off its size on a napkin. Wrap the sides and secure with hot glue.

That's it. Everything is ready.

The bouquet can be placed in hat boxes or shoe packaging. To do this, they are covered with fabric or special paper. The bottom is lined with film, on which we place a floral sponge. We fill it with moisture and begin to form a composition.

There is a fun idea for decorating jars with plastic cocktail straws. The main thing here is to cut them carefully and evenly.

Insert dried flowers or paper flowers into paper boxes. Here's one idea. By the way, in this article I described very, maybe you will like something too.

Cardboard fits very harmoniously into this composition. Original and beautiful.

To congratulate teachers, you can decorate the packaging with letters.

Or just put the bouquet in the basket. They are now made not only from wicker, but also from newspaper tubes, paper and canton.

Thank you for your attention and wish you productive joint work. I’m just sure that you will be able to find an idea for yourself and create a composition that you wouldn’t be ashamed to give to a teacher or send to an exhibition!

Look at the photos, study simple step-by-step master classes, get ideas and the muse will definitely visit you! And don’t forget to collect during your walks everything that comes under your feet - interesting pebbles, twigs, flowers, berries, nuts and other natural materials. Keep a separate box for these treasures - they will definitely come in handy, you'll see.

Golden autumn is the best time for long walks and creativity. Enjoy nature and be inspired to create stunning masterpieces with your own hands.

The most beautiful autumn crafts from vegetables and fruits with your own hands

With the arrival of autumn, kindergartens and elementary schools often organize exhibitions of crafts made from natural materials. Recently, crafts made from vegetables and fruits have occupied a special niche. They turn out very bright and quite interesting.

Most often, parents learn about such creative exhibitions the day before. And you have to quickly gather your thoughts, the necessary materials and create something beautiful in a hurry.

I would like to offer you several master classes on simple vegetable crafts. You don't have to run around your neighbors looking for the necessary material. Also, the creative process will not take too much time, and you will even have time to sleep at night.

Mushroom glade

A simple craft that requires the following materials:

• A sheet of cardboard or box lid
• Leaves or greens for grass
• Carrot
• Apple
• Potato
• Toothpicks

We’ll make a clearing in the lid of the box, where you can collect fallen leaves on the way home from the garden or school.

Let's make mushrooms. The legs are pieces of carrots, the caps are halves of potatoes or apples.

We fasten all the parts together with toothpicks. We install the mushrooms themselves in the clearing using pieces of plasticine.

You can also make bugs from plasticine and place them on mushrooms.

Piglets

For this craft, prepare the following materials:

• Potato
• Plasticine
• Plastic plate
• Paper napkin (or crepe paper)

From a plate and a napkin we make a base on which our “pigs” will sit.

For piglets, we make triangle ears, snouts, eyes, and tails from plasticine.

Very simple and fast. You don’t even have to suffer - your baby will be happy to mold all the necessary components.

Funny people

But what cute things can be made from potatoes. You will need:

• Potato
• Pumpkin or large zucchini
• Markers
• White paper

We cut the pumpkin in half and make a “boat” for the funny little people.

For funny faces, cut out eye circles from white paper, draw pupils on them, and glue them to the potatoes.

We use felt-tip pens to complete the rest – noses, mouths.

Children will love this unusual drawing on vegetables, so be sure to involve them in making crafts.

Potatoes are an excellent vegetable that is easy to work with and easily gives birth to a variety of fantasies. For example, here are such simple cockerel and dog. or a cute ant that can be made in just 10 minutes. Just first go out into the yard to “hunt” for sticks.

Or cut out the following candlesticks from large potatoes:

Caterpillars made from apples and grapes are beautiful and bright.

Caterpillar

For such a beauty we will need:

• Apples
• grape berries
• Carrot
• Toothpicks, skewers

1. In the apple, which will be the muzzle, we cut out “eye sockets” into which we insert grape eyes using toothpicks. For the mouth, we also make a small horizontal cut and insert a “smile” into it.
2. We string grapes onto skewers to make “horns”.
3. We connect the apples together - this will be the “body” to which we attach the “head”.
4. Cut the carrots into slices. We make “legs” for our caterpillar.
5. You can seat such a beauty in an impromptu clearing. You can easily make it from a plastic plate and leaves. A little imagination and additional materials and you get these caterpillars from apples.

You can fantasize a lot about animals. Hedgehogs are especially popular. They can be made from any material - potatoes, pears, apples.

Hedgehog

To create a cute forest dweller we will need:

• Zucchini
• Apple
• Rowan berries
• Twigs, leaves
• Toothpicks, plasticine

From leaves and twigs we will make a clearing in the lid of the box.

We make the hedgehog itself from zucchini. We sculpt the eyes and nose from plasticine and pin them on with toothpicks. After this you can make “thorns”.

Everything is simple here - insert toothpicks into the zucchini and you're done!

We place a small apple on the back of the hedgehog and decorate it with rowan berries. If you have dried mushrooms, they can also come in handy.

In fact, creating a masterpiece from the gifts of the garden is very simple. Lay out in front of you the vegetables that you have in the refrigerator and together with your child, think about who they look like or who they can turn into. Children are known to have a rich imagination, so in just a couple of minutes you will have enough brilliant ideas.

Autumn crafts for kindergarten from paper

Paper is an excellent material for creativity. Therefore, if you were unable to collect a herbarium or natural materials, do not be discouraged. Plain colored paper, cardboard, glue, scissors - everything you need to create an applique on the theme “Autumn”.

The first application that I want to offer you is called

Tree

To make it you will need:

• Sheet (A 4) of blue or blue cardboard
• Colored paper – red, yellow, green, orange, brown
• Glue, scissors

Cut out a rectangle from brown paper - this will be a tree trunk. We also cut out two green rectangles - this will be grass.

We cut out rectangles from red, yellow, orange paper and glue them together in the shape of rings.

Then we glue the prepared elements onto cardboard in the form of an autumn tree.

A few more variations on the theme of autumn trees:

Another association of autumn is the harvest. Therefore, let’s consider another interesting application idea called

Harvest

A variety of fruits can be stored all year round. All you need for this:

• Colored paper
• Scissors

Help your child - draw these simple details for 3 D fruits. Together, cut them out and stick them on pieces of cardboard to make cute cards.

Or you can put fruit in a “jar” - and a compote will come out that will amuse your baby, and he will want to “roll up” more than one such jar!

Umbrella

It often rains in autumn. In order not to get wet, let's make a bright, voluminous umbrella from colored paper and cardboard. For this craft we will need:

• Sheet A 4 green cardboard
• Squares (8 * 8 cm) – 5 pieces of different colors
• Rectangles (2 * 10 - 15 cm) - 1 white and 2 blue pieces
• Cocktail straw
• Scissors
• Double-sided tape
• Simple pencil

Using tape, glue the tube to a sheet of cardboard at a distance of 2–3 cm from the bottom edge.

We make an umbrella from multi-colored squares. To do this, we twist each leaf into a cone shape and fasten it with glue.

Then we glue the pieces together.

Then glue the umbrella to the cardboard.

We fold rectangles of white and blue paper like an accordion. On the fold we draw half a “raindrop” and cut it out.

Let's make the droplets voluminous. Let's take three droplets - 2 blue, 1 white, and glue them together.

To do this, take a blue drop, fold it in half, coat one of the halves with glue, and glue the white drop. Similarly, glue the second blue droplet to the white one.

We glue the finished droplets onto a sheet of cardboard above the umbrella. A simple, beautiful autumn applique is ready!

Joint creativity with children charges you with positive emotions and brings you closer to your baby. Don't miss the opportunity to fill rainy autumn days with warmth. Your child will remember such family evenings for the rest of his life. So, when you receive a task to do some kind of craft in the garden, don’t rush to do it yourself, because it’s faster, more accurate... Be sure to involve your baby!

Original works from cones, acorns and chestnuts

Another material for crafts that parents often come across are pine cones, acorns, and chestnuts. From simple men on matchstick legs to complex compositions, the fantasy world is rich and varied. Crafts made from natural materials become especially relevant in the fall, when the gifts of nature can be easily collected during a walk.

Let's make it out of chestnuts

"The Cheerful Caterpillar"

For this we need:

• Chestnuts
• Plasticine

We roll out multi-colored circles from plasticine, with the help of which we connect the chestnuts - this will be the body of the caterpillar.

We make “eyes” and a smile from plasticine

From two plasticine “sausages”, for example, green and orange, we make “horns” for the caterpillar.

A simple craft is ready! Create a clearing for it from dry leaves and other natural materials and you can take it to the exhibition.

Autumn flowers from pine cones

Another simple master class for joint creativity with children.

• Cones
• Acrylic paints or gouache
• Large wide brush
• Green colored paper
• Scissors

For “flowers” ​​it is best to collect open cones. Clean them from dirt, rinse if necessary, and dry well. After this preparatory procedure, you can begin to create.

The first step is to paint the pine cones and let them dry thoroughly.

We cut the paper into rectangles 5 * 15 cm. We make “leaves” that we twist into a ring. We bend the upper part outward.

Place a pine cone in the center of the “leaf”.

Make several of these autumn flowers and place them on a flowerbed stand. A simple, bright, original craft is ready!

Vase of acorns

Let's look at a simple craft made from acorns that you can make in one evening, leaving the most difficult work to your child.

We will need:

• Jar (any size)
• Plasticine
• Acorns

For this craft it is not necessary to take new plasticine. Leftovers from an old box will do just fine. Since we will just need to cover the jar on all sides with plasticine mass.

If your acorns have lost their caps, no problem! Glue them with glue.

As a result, the entire jar should be sealed. If there are large gaps between the acorns, fill them with caps. The neck of the jar can also be covered with caps.

Place a bouquet of autumn leaves or any composition of autumn gifts in a vase.

It is not necessary to use just one thing in compositions made from natural materials. Naturally, you can safely combine everything you can find into one craft. Don't be afraid - fantasize!

The main thing here is to start, take the first step. And then you will be unstoppable! Before you know it, ideas will begin to appear in your head. And when you engage in such creativity with a child, a sea of ​​positive emotions is guaranteed. Little geniuses will definitely surprise you - they are capable of more than you think. Therefore, never do it instead of your child - do it with him!

Pumpkin crafts

Pumpkin is an excellent material for bright, beautiful crafts. Working with this vegetable is a pleasure! For example, by taking a small pumpkin and modeling material, you can make a cute “vampire”. An old hat, paints, any available material - and the fabulous Scarecrow from Oz is ready.

Dry leaves, rowan berries, matches, a little plasticine, shells that were collected near the sea in the summer - and here we have a little mansion.

Or you could carve out an entire flying saucer with garlicky heads of alien creatures.

I really like pumpkin vases. They are made quite simply. Everything you can find in the garden or park is used. The result is simply fabulous!

Let's make a colorful autumn pumpkin bouquet together. It can not only be sent to the exhibition, but also presented as an original gift to your favorite teacher or educator on Teacher's Day, which is celebrated on the first Sunday in October.

For this craft you will need the following materials:

• Little pumpkin
• Floral sponge
• Scissors
• Glass of water
• Any autumn flowers

Cut off the top of the pumpkin and thoroughly remove the pulp.

Cut the floral sponge and place it inside the pumpkin. Let's pour water.

We trim the flower stems and assemble the bouquet.

Don’t forget to carefully moisten the floral sponge, and such a bouquet will delight you with its beauty for a long time. If you create a similar composition from dry leaves and twigs, then to secure them, place regular polystyrene foam or modeling compound into the pumpkin. For a stronger structure, you can additionally lubricate the tips of the branches with glue. Enjoy your creative moments!

Autumn crafts for kindergarten from leaves

I start collecting and drying leaves, herbs, and flowers with my children in the summer. By autumn we have a rather impressive collection, which is gradually turning into original appliqués.

All you need for such applications is a cardboard base, PVA glue or a glue stick, scissors and, of course, a herbarium. Children love to take part in creating leaf paintings that literally come to life on a sheet of paper.

The youngest children can draw, for example, the outline of a hedgehog or a butterfly and let it be covered with leaves. The older the child, the more complex compositions you can offer him.

Let's make an original three-dimensional owl from leaves for kindergarten.

Owl

We will need the following materials:

• Colorful leaves
• Rowan berries
• File (for documents) format A 4
• Ribbons 30 cm long – 2 pieces
• Colored cardboard - yellow and brown
• Double-sided tape
• Scissors

1. Cut out the legs and eyes of an owl from cardboard.
2. Cut off the white stripe from the file. We do this carefully, the file should remain intact.
3. Open the file like a bag and fill it with leaves and berries.
4. Inside the file (in the upper corners) we put triangles-ears and tie them with ribbons.
5. We fold the bottom of the file and seal it with tape.
6. Using tape we glue on the eyes, beak and paws.

The adorable owl is ready!

It’s so easy to bring autumn leaves to life and create a small miracle together with your child.

Beautiful autumn crafts for kindergarten and school

When you have enough time, you can create real miracles from natural materials. With the arrival of cold weather, schools and gardens are often asked to make bird feeders, which are then hung in the yard.

Feeder

Let's make an original craft together. For this we need:

• 5 liter plastic bottle
• Broom
• Leg-split
• Scissors and stationery knife
• Acrylic paints
• Scotch

1. Cut the bottle into 3 parts.
2. The upper part is completely painted over with acrylic paint. In the lower part you need to paint the bottom and grab a few centimeters from the bottom. Then we apply glue and wrap the bottom with twine, leaving about 2 - 3 centimeters free from the top.
3. After the glued twine has dried well, we cut out the window with scissors and put on the roof of the feeding house.
4. We strengthen the roof with tape.
5. We disassemble the broom and decorate our house.
6. We wrap the handle with twine - we will use it to hang the feeder on the tree.

A beautiful bird feeder is ready!

Autumn panel

For production we will need the following materials:

• Dry leaves, grass
• Rowan berries
• Rosehip sprig
• Wooden sticks
• Glue gun
• Rope

Making such a lush autumn bouquet is quite simple.

1. To begin, we will make two square frames from wooden sticks, which we will tightly tie together.
2. Let's connect the frames together.
3. We take several branches, tie them together, and then wrap them to the base.
4. On the other side and in the center we tie dry grass.
5. At the top, we attach rowan branches using a rope.
