Autumn crafts autumn colors. Original autumn crafts made from natural materials

Good afternoon, today we will talk about autumn crafts. And we will make these crafts from natural material with our own hands. Autumn is rich in a variety of materials. And so we will do with the most different crafts on the theme of Autumn- from leaves, branches, acorns, chestnuts, straw, moss, dried flowers and other natural material. I will show you interesting ways to create DIY autumn crafts using ordinary natural materials. unusual design way. In this article you will find fresh ideas, that will inspire you to creative exploits this fall. So let's go on a quiet hunt for ideas for the best crafts for the fall 2017 season.

Autumn natural material is rich in ideas for a variety of crafts for children. Let's see what ideas you can implement this fall.

Leaf compositions

and natural material.

Who said that autumn crafts from natural material should be done while sitting indoors. Golden autumn beckons with a warm sun, the smell of rotten leaves - and we do not want to sit in four walls. We go outside with the children to catch a little more warmth and warm our eyes with the yellow fire of autumn foliage.

Crafts on the theme of AUTUMN from natural material can be done right on the street. In my yard, next to the entrance. All you need is to find a quiet, windless place. Instruct the children to collect a stack of bright leaves and a bucket of dry pebbles.

And now an interesting game begins - laying out crafts from autumn natural material. For beginners, this can be a simple tree. Heavy pebbles press the yellow leaves, do not allow them to fly away from the wind. The craft can be saved as a souvenir in the form of a photograph.

If there is a whole pile of pebbles near the place of your walk, then you can make crafts from natural material on a larger scale (as in the photo below).

If you are observant, you may notice that under different trees the foliage is of different colors. If we collect yellow leaves from ash or birch in a separate bag, red leaves from aspen or Canadian maple, and a little more brown blackened leaves in another bag, then we can make such a Winnie bear cub on our porch.

Any silhouette picture can be laid out from the color mosaic of nature itself. The main thing is to find a place without strong winds. And have time to photograph this beauty before it fluttered from the wind and flew away like a bird.

The natural materials of autumn themselves will give you ideas for collages - gray branches (like the gray plumage of the wing and tail), yellow leaves (like yellow fluff on the breast). And here you are, a tit bird.

You don't have to be an artist, you don't have to have many leaves. Even from the smallest leafy heaps, you can make beautiful autumn crafts. The simplest do-it-yourself craft, the arrangement of foliage according to the colors of the spectrum, looks like real magic.

You become little wizards. Secret dwarves-assistants of Queen Autumn. You hooligans secretly, leaving good signs, funny symbols of the autumn season.

And some crafts can be done using a tree trunk as a base. Make the tree smile. The nose is a bump, two eyes are cut from a wood chock, and a smile from the fruits of physalis, strung on a thread.

Do you know what mandalas are? In the east, mandalas are sacred patterns closed in a circle. A harmonious pattern repeating in a circle is like a map of the universe. Mandalas are drawn or laid out from mosaics, colored sand, flower petals. Mandalas are a spiritual practice that allows you to touch the divine principle within yourself. You need to make mandalas in a special state of mind - pure, serene, enlightened.

We can also make beautiful harmonious mandala patterns with our own hands in the form of handicrafts made from natural material - bright beautiful autumn.

Your autumn mandala craft can be quite small (as in the photo below).

Or very large, consisting of many circles of a cyclic pattern.

Mosaic applications

on the theme of AUTUMN.

All children love mosaics. Why don't we make it from autumn natural material.

Since the leaves are too large for mosaics (and suitable for laying out large paintings in the yard), for indoor small work, we can cut an ordinary juicy maple leaf into small squares. Arrange them in bowls - yellow, green, red separately. And let the children themselves lay out a bright mosaic craft from such a pleasant-to-the-touch natural material with their own hands.

As an ornamental material, you can use cereals or seeds. A very good natural material for autumn children's crafts is yellow corn grains or large pumpkin seeds painted with gouache.

And a mosaic of whole leaves can become a crown of a tree - a simple and quick craft made from natural material, which is suitable for kindergarten children. You can stick the leaves on paper, or on a transparent office file - and then such a craft can be fixed on the window, the leaves will shine in the sun. Beautiful children's craft for younger children.

Crafts on the theme of AUTUMN.

Natural material STONE.

And here is another wonderful idea for crafts from natural materials in the autumn theme. Ordinary flat river stones can become a canvas for autumn paintings. You can paint the stones with a brush, but it is better to apply the drawing in the dots technique - round wooden sticks or special dots sticks (metal devices with a round ball at the end) are suitable for this. They are sold in the manicure department, as they are intended for painting on nails. The ball tips on the dots sticks come in different sizes, allowing you to draw even dots of any size.

You can also draw owls on stones - this is the simplest drawing - the main thing here is expressive eyes, a pointed beak, and oval wings with even rows of feathers. First, draw with paints, then outline each filled element with a contour (white, as in the left photo or black, as in the right photo below). And the contour thin stroke of the elements will make crafts-drawings more clear and expressive.

Such crafts-owls made of natural material will look good on a snag with shreds of moss, inside a wooden frame, glued to a log saw cut.

And it’s even cooler to plant such an owl inside a hole cut in a thick round saw cut of a tree trunk.

Autumn crafts

with tree branches.

Ordinary tree branches can also be a source of interesting do-it-yourself autumn collage. This natural material is lying around completely idle. On a walk, you can give the children the task of collecting beautiful, not dirty twigs in a bag, disassemble them at home, clean them of debris and break them into small pieces.

Next, on a sheet of paper, draw the outlines of a basket with handles. And either we give the child plasticine, or we arm ourselves with a glue gun and begin to collect our basket from sticks. Then it remains to put fruit in it (cut out of cardboard, draw and then cut it out, or perform it using the broken appliqué technique).

And if you have collected beautiful leaves together with sticks, then you can make a children's tree craft from natural materials.

Long sticks found in the park can not be broken, but put aside to make them a new craft-panel made of natural materials(as in the photo below). The principle is simple. The sticks are laid in the shape of the sides of a square - we tie the junction of the sticks with twine (wire, threads). And then we decorate such a frame with natural materials and colored paper.

You can place a canvas inside the frame of branches - we tint a sheet of cardboard with paints, make holes on its sides with a hole punch - and tie the sheet with threads to the branch frame, pulling the thread through the holes and around the branch (as done in the left photo below). And then on this canvas we make an application from natural material on the theme of autumn.

Or you can simply decorate the frame around its perimeter - in the lower part of the square we attach a bush, mushrooms, pieces of moss, bark, and a cardboard hedgehog to plasticine. On the upper part of our panel made of natural material we hang a garland of autumn leaves cut out of colored paper, the sun, clouds, a kite.

From the branches you can lay out large application in the form of an owl , a children's craft, which is entirely made of natural material, which autumn is rich in. Branches, dry and fresh pine needles, withered fir legs. You can lay out the application on a sheet of plywood and fix everything with glue - or make a temporary mosaic on a walk right on the ground or stump.

Looks very nice craft Hedgehog from natural material . This fall craft is my favorite in this article. Let me even tell you in detail how simple and easy it is to make such a hedgehog with your own hands. It's really very easy. Now you will be convinced of it.

First, we find beautiful thick rods from a shrub or birch branches - we cut them with scissors or a knife into segments with long oblique cuts (as in the photo of a hedgehog below).

For this autumn crafts you will need plasticine - a large piece. Where to get it? I never throw away the used plasticine from children's crafts, I put it in one common pile - then I soak this multi-colored pile in hot water - it becomes soft like fresh dough, and easily and simply I knead this whole lump into a homogeneous mass with my hands - it turns out a large piece of fresh brown plasticine of excellent quality. From it you can still make a variety of crafts for a long time

From plasticine we form the body of a hedgehog- teardrop shape. And in the thick part of the hedgehog, row after row, we stick segments of branches - oblique cuts should all look in one direction.

2 ways to decorate the muzzle of a hedgehog.

1 way. I wrap the plasticine nose of the hedgehog with a piece of burlap, or a piece of gauze (bandage) soaked in a solution of iodine with water.

2 way. The muzzle of the hedgehog can be smeared with PVA glue, overlaid with pieces of paper napkins, smeared with glue again, again a layer of napkins, glue on top and allowed to dry - you get a layer of papier-mâché. We cover it with paint - draw eyes, a nose on it

Craft-spider web of branches and leaves.

And from natural material you can make beautiful decorative crafts-pendants on the theme of AUTUMN. We need straight, even branches - like a willow. We look at the photo, and below I give a detailed step-by-step description of this children's craft.

A detailed master class on this craft made from natural material.

We take a lump of plasticine and divide it into 2 small molds. On the first cake we put the branches in a circle (that is, radially from this plasticine center) - so that the tips of the branches meet in the middle of the plasticine cake. Slightly press each branch so that it drowns in plasticine. From above we cover with a second cake of plasticine, also pressing it on the branches. It turns out a spread with rays of branches.

Now we need coarse threads - the ones that are tied up with shopping packages in the store. Such canvas-paper thick gray threads. With them, we begin to weave a cobweb between the branches - starting from the plasticine center and gradually moving towards the outer edge, until our cobweb rests against the edge of the maple leaf.

Craft autumn kaleidoscope.

Also you can do colored kaleidosk made of natural material - from branches and leaves (as in the photo below).

For this craft, we need hot glue (or the ability to weave threads between crossed branches). Now I will give a detailed master class on creating this craft with my own hands.

Step 1 We cut 4 rods of the same size. Two of them cross over cross - fasten with glue or thread. Two others cross in exactly the same way. We now have two crosses made of branches.

Step 2 We impose these 2 crosses on each other obliquely - so that they form snowflake figure. We fix the middle of this clutch with glue (or fix it with threads).

Step 3 From a flexible willow rod (fresh or soaked in water) we make a round ring. We attach this ring to our "snowflake" of rods - so that the edges of the ring are at the same distance from the center - for each rod(measure with a tape measure). If the distances are the same, then the ring will be even, not crooked.

Step 4 As a result, we got a circle from the branches, divided into triangular sectors. And it remains only to find large maple leaves of different colors - pure yellow, pure red, pure green, pure orange. From them it is necessary to cut out triangles that are suitable in size to the sector-hole on the future kaleidoscope. Cut out the triangle so that the central vein on the maple leaf passes through the middle of such a triangle- divided it in half like a bisector from geometry. And we attach all these multi-colored triangles of maple leaves to the sectors of our design made of natural material with a glue gun.

Autumn applications

From natural material.

And of course, all children love to make applications from autumn natural materials. Small and large paintings of leaves and dry flowers. The most favorite children's crafts on the theme of autumn.

The symbol of autumn made of natural material is, of course, a hedgehog. From what they just do not make it, from leaves, from flowers, from twigs, from maple or ash seeds.

The simplest hedgehog is done like this. From cardboard cut out the silhouette of a hedgehog. We give children plasticine and maple seeds. We begin to attach rows of seeds with plasticine to cardboard - you need to start from the back of the hedgehog. Children are trying to start with the muzzle - explain to them that this is not right, that then it is not convenient to make the back rows of needles when the front needles stick back and interfere.

By the same principle, a hedgehog is made from flat natural material - leaves and dried flowers. Also starting from the buttocks - we attach it to plasticine or glue. This is the most common autumn-themed children's craft.

Even children love to make autumn turkeys. Also a simple bird craft, which does not require a lot of natural material. The body and head of the bird can be cut out of cardboard. Or the head and torso can be cut with scissors from the same maple leaf (as in the photo of the craft below).

YOU can do crafts not using colored paper, but by cutting out all the parts necessary for the picture from natural material, in the event that you do not find a leaf of a suitable shape.

Here's a great idea. Large craft LION. It can be made from real natural leaves. And you can arrange it as a collective paper craft. In the kindergarten group, we distribute sheets of paper with a maple leaf painted on it. The task of the children is to cut this sheet along the contour. At the end of the lesson, all the children attach their leaves to the lion's mane. A good idea for a craft on the theme of “autumn” is for the middle group of a kindergarten, when children are in their first year of learning to cut with scissors along the contour - they will cut a maple leaf for 10 minutes, and puff with zeal like steam locomotives.

If you work in a large children's team (a kindergarten teacher or a teacher, or a circle leader), then you can make one big collective craft. For example, here is such a bird made of natural material. We cut out parts of the bird from cardboard - separately the left wing, separately the right, separately the body and separately the tail. Divide the team into 4 creative groups. Each group of children receives their part and begins to lay leaves on glue or plasticine. After the completion of the work of each team - we combine the details into one common craft bird from natural material as bright as autumn itself.

Autumn crafts-pictures

From natural material.

And of course, beautiful bright crafts-collages in the form of natural landscapes are obtained from the autumn material. In the photo below we see how a picture-panel was made from different materials - paper, leaves, herbs.

You can dry many flower petals. And make a big collage with the children with a blue sky and a blue river. Stretch a bridge across the river, cut out of a blackened autumn leaf (for the leaf to turn black, it must be ironed with a hot iron through a newspaper).

And if you don’t have enough dry natural material, then you can paint a picture with gouache or watercolor and lay out only individual elements of the landscape from leaves and herbs (as in this craft below).

Autumn crafts

from natural material.

The nature of autumn is rich in a variety of ornamental materials - hawthorn berries, rose hips, cones, fluffy moss. After a walk in the forest, you can make an elegant autumn composition with a candle. And arrange a romantic candlelight dinner in the theme of autumn.

Thick cut logs, round birch chocks and walnut shells - this poor natural material can be a source of inspiration for such crafts in the form of a mushroom clearing.

From the found cones, you can make a variety of characters with your own hands. And place them in the form of a single autumn composition made with your own hands from natural material (wood, leaves, moss, wood chips, etc.).

Fresh oak branches torn off by a hurricane can be dried in the shade of a shed, under a roof. Oak leaves do not lose their juicy green color when dried. And then they will be able to participate in interesting crafts made with their own hands from autumn natural material.

A wreath - a symbol of autumn - made of natural material of all shades of bright foliage will delight your whole family. It is so interesting to collect leaves - to pick only the most beautiful ones. It is necessary to weave a wreath from willow twigs with your own hands and weave autumn leaves into it with threads, plant pine cones on wire or glue. We have a special training article on weaving wreaths from twigs and branches on our website -

Beautifully look in autumn wreaths bright fruit-boxes of physalis, twigs with hawthorn fruits, flowers of everlasting flowers.

But even if you do not have bright natural material for making an autumn wreath, don't be discouraged. You can do bright wreath of gray pine cones. You just need to take more gouache. Paint each cone in shades of autumn foliage. Spray with hairspray (so that the color becomes juicier and does not get your hands dirty). And then collect all this colorful splendor of autumn into a rich wreath with your own hands.

Cones in a wreath can be placed with their buttocks forward (as in the photo above), or noses forward (as in the craft below).

You can make decorative autumn wreaths from any one natural material. Only from wild rose - string red fruits on a copper wire and bend it in the shape of a heart.

Or your fall wreath can be made from saw cut logs found in a woodpile.

In the same woodshed, you can find a natural material suitable for making an owl composition.

Your autumn compositions may look like cheerful little people made of birch saw cuts, decorated with various natural materials, which autumn is rich in.

And bunches of cut grass can turn into a hedgehog if you (or good neighbors) have physalis blooming profusely. Its boxes can be sewn with threads to a straw bale. Wrap the sharp edge of the bale with twine and stick on the nose and eyes.

And you can also make from natural autumn material beautiful candlestick . We will need the bottom of any white bottle of household liquid (washing balm, etc.).

On the table we unfold a transparent wide adhesive tape. On its sticky surface we put beautiful small leaves, seeds and other flat natural material inside out. We put it so that between the elements there are empty places of sticky tape (so that there is an adhesive space).

Here are some new ideas for this fall - from natural materials. You found inspiration here. You fell in love with some crafts. And that means this autumn will not pass by your skillful hands. It remains only to collect natural material, which is abundant everywhere, and, fortunately, it is free. As in that verse...

Autumn is walking in our park,
Autumn gives gifts to everyone.

Interesting crafts "Autumn" to school for grades 1, 2, 3 and 4

Autumn crafts to school for grades 1 and 2

Since students in grades 1 and 2 still have difficulty concentrating their attention and always want to get results quickly, they should not be offered to make complex autumn crafts. An excellent solution would be, for example, such a caterpillar:

Merry caterpillar

You will need:

  • multi-colored plasticine;
  • dried chestnuts;
  • matches or toothpicks.

Chestnuts need to be connected to each other with pieces of plasticine. For this purpose, you can also use a thin wire, but the help of parents is already required here, since the child can injure his hand.

When the caterpillar is prepared, it needs to be decorated. To do this, match horns, plasticine eyes and a mouth should be attached to her head.

It is quite simply done and the sunflower hedgehog looks incredibly beautiful.

Hedgehog made from a sunflower

The top of the hedgehog is made of sunflower

You need to cut the plant so that you get an oval. Attach plasticine feet to its bottom. Fix the head from the same material. On top of the forest dweller, you can decorate with rowan berries, dry mushrooms.

If there was no sunflower at home, but you liked the idea, you can cheat a little: sculpt the body from brown or black plasticine and decorate it with impromptu seed needles from above.
