SCALES from cones.

Cones are made up of scales. If you collect the revealed pine cones, then it is convenient to pull them out with pincers, pliers, or bite the SCALES with nippers. And then use this cone-like natural material as a mosaic covering for a variety of autumn crafts.

Note. So that the cones open well, their scales spread out, they can be heated in the oven.

Here we see mushrooms. Their legs are carved from thick wooden blocks. The hats are made of plasticine and the top of the hats is covered with scales. You get some cute DIY mushrooms. Suitable job for school activities.

But FIR cones have scales flatter and smoother. They look like smoothed feathers of birds. That’s why the idea for a craft comes to mind on a bird theme. We sculpt the body of the bird from plasticine, coat with PVA glue, put a layer of torn paper napkins on the glue, again with glue, again with napkins - it turns out papier mache shell. We dry this shell until it is completely lignified. And on this hard, dry surface, with hot glue (layer by layer, row by row), we lay a spruce “tile” of feather-scales.

And also The scales of a fir cone are similar to the scaly armor of ancient lizards. So here's another idea for you. After all, this is a great challenge to your artistic potential. It’s not just a bird here—it’s a whole animal that looks as if it were alive. An excellent craft for boys made from natural materials.

Here we act exactly the same as with the bird.– we sculpt the base from plasticine, pack it in several layers of papier-mâché (alternating PVA glue and paper napkins). And then, after this mass has dried into a hard crust, you can paste over the dinosaur figure with spruce scales.

After plucking the cone, the cone BOTTOM remains. It looks like a flower with petals. From such cone flowers you can make a new autumn craft with your own hands - for example, a WREATH. We glue the base for the foam wreath with a chopped pine cone - just use hot glue from a gun.

You can cover such flower cones with bright gouache. To make the color of the gouache richer and shine, I recommend spraying this product with a simple hairspray after drying with gouache. The color will stick and won't stain your hands.

You can do it yourself beautiful flowers, selecting the most accurate and even scales of different sizes, and laying them radially from the center. The middle of the flower can be decorated with beads or rhinestones. From such natural material, you can even make brooches in autumn style with your own hands - and wear them with a coat, or pin them on a shawl.

Flowers from cones can not only be collected into craft-wreaths, but also simply laid out on a panel. Place it on a piece of plywood with glue. This will make an excellent craft from natural material for a competition for school or kindergarten.

From whole cones You can also make some great crafts. We add not only natural material to the cones, but also other materials (colored felt, cardboard, rope, plastic, etc.).

Crafts made from natural materials

WALNUTS.

From nut shells As children, we all made boats or hats on plasticine mushrooms. But you can go further with your walnut creations. Children will be happy to create mice or birds, and adults with skillful hands and a warm heart can create a whole world from a nut shell... Now you will see it.

In this article I want to introduce you to a very good person. Her name is Marina. A master with an attentive soul.

This is what the account page of this master looks like on the Fair of Masters website.

I really like the works of master Marina from the Fair of Masters website. With her own hands she created amazing, in its sincerity and warmth, the world of kind old women. Walnuts in the place where the doors join, they surprisingly look like a wrinkled, smiling old woman. All that remains is to add eyes, a nose-bone and wrap everything up with a cotton scarf. And now the cunning old woman looks at you cheerfully.

We make a body from a pine cone, weave the arms from coarse paper packaging twine. We make warm felt boots from felt. Each old woman can be made with her own character. I'll run wild with a wide smile. Or silent, thoughtful, on her own mind.

Old ladies can be both summer and winter.

You can create entire worlds from natural materials in which good old ladies live and work. They themselves will keep their world clean.

And after work they will gather over a cup of herbal tea to tell stories, make fun of each other and sing songs of their youth.

Master Marina sells her crafts. You can order her works on the master’s personal page - https://www.livemaster.ru/woods. Marina can make you a custom craft for your family and friends.

After all, how nice it is to receive as a gift the World of kind old women, which will always smell like a village CHILDHOOD for you - grandma’s pancakes, a woodpile of firewood by the barn, chickens running around the yard, the heated wood of an old bench near the fence.

Master Marina, I want to give you an idea. In one I talked about another Czech Master who created the world of ACORN PEOPLE - Dubanchikov and wrote a book with stories about them, which he illustrated with emotional scenes made from natural material. The book is published in the Czech Republic, and only in Czech. I think that many children will like our Russian book with good stories about Russian village grandmothers, illustrated by Marina’s works.

After all, it’s a real miracle to make with your own hands from natural materials. new world– kind, fabulous, REAL. More and more houses, cozy benches, swings, carts, and carts will appear in it.

FAIRY HOUSES.

If you love fairy tales with fairies and magicians, then you will love the world of fairies made from natural materials. You can create cozy houses for fairies with your own hands, set up entire housing complexes for them, with ponds, parks, gardens, swings.

You can bring a man-made miracle to a school competition for crafts made from natural materials. The house where the gnome lives. Parts can be attached to plasticine, staples (from a staple gun), or glue from a hot gun.

Pieces of moss, acorn caps, scales pulled out of a cone with pliers, lichens and dry hard hanging mushrooms taken from trees in the forest. And even pieces of plants torn from indoor flower pots - any natural material will be used for the construction of such a complex but interesting crafts. The house will grow and be ennobled with natural design before your eyes.

You can take as a basis thick wooden driftwood, found in the forest. Cut off a convenient piece from it. Buy at a hardware store tinting stain for wood- and cover the tree with noble dark color. Cut from thick cardboard windows, cover them with the same stain. From popsicle sticks put together a real door, decorate a porch. Sculpt a conical roof from plasticine. Break a large pine cone with pincers or pliers on scales and lay tiles from them on the roof of a natural house.

Some elements can be sculpted made from salt dough(a glass of fine salt, a glass of flour + water (add water one spoon at a time and rub with the salted flour with your hands until a single lump similar to plasticine is formed). Roll out the dough - cut into bricks with a knife. Dry - and you will get a lot of building material for the porch , paths, fences, etc. The dough can also be painted with gouache or stain.

But the house is VERY SIMPLE. Now I’ll tell you how to make it with your own hands from the things that surround us.

Take a durable cardboard milk or juice bag. Cutting windows in it will be the future façade of the house.
Buy a small bag of gypsum plaster (or putty), dilute it with water and coat the façade of the house with this mixture.
Dry and cover with whitewash or white gouache (toothpaste at best).
Make the roof out of cardboard, also apply glue to it and lay tiles from pieces of bark or pine cones. or wood chips.

Applications

And of course, the most common crafts made from natural materials are applications using dry herbarium - herbs, leaves, flowers. We all made chicks or fish in an aquarium from leaves. In a special article, I give many options.

And in this article I want to show a beautiful mosaic technique of laying out dry natural material in the form of a SILHOUETTE PICTURE.

You can find a lot of ready-made silhouette templates on the Internet. If you type the phrase “silhouette of a hare picture” or another animal in the search bar.

The most important thing in such a craft is to achieve recognition - clarity of the silhouette. Therefore, you need to choose a silhouette without small details - protrusions. And if you choose one with detailed protrusions, try to ensure that the small relief detail is made with ONE WHOLE petal (like the bunny’s ears or the protrusions of its paws in the photo above).

If, when laying out the mosaic, the edge of the plant protrudes beyond the border of the silhouette, it must be trimmed carefully with scissors (as was done in the photo above with the cat - its ear triangles are cut out).

Crafts from branches.

You can make beautiful crafts with your own hands from branches of different shapes and curves. Branches are possible just spread out on a white paper background repeating the outlines of a bird or animal. You can do it on paper in advance. draw a silhouette of a bird faint pencil lines. And then select branches that would lie on this drawn silhouette of a bird, repeating the curves of the drawing.

You can make crafts from natural materials secure with glue from a hot glue gun. Or make a photo craft. That is, lay out the twigs and photograph the craft, thereby immortalizing your product made from natural material in the form of a photograph.

You can fix the craft at key nodes of the branch plexus and then attach it to the base (vertical wall or horizontal shelf-stand) at these nodes, as was done in the photo below.

In addition to branches, you can use natural wood chips, pieces of bark, chips and saw cuts from logs, logs, and thick branches in your crafts. This is how the owl crafts from the photo below were implemented. Simple and interesting, made with your own hands - you can safely take it to an exhibition of autumn crafts at school or kindergarten.

The same idea can be implemented from different angles and different materials. For example, in the photo of a horse craft made from natural materials, branches, bark, and driftwood are used.

You can lay out entire mosaics, completely filling the silhouette image with natural material. The direction of the branches should repeat the direction of the details of the drawing. Arrange the branches in the same directions as the fur pile of the animal, or use the branches to repeat the muscle relief of the animal.

Perhaps this type of crafts made from natural materials will captivate you so much that will turn into a solid hobby with prospects for monetization into a profitable business. Why not make beautiful wooden sculptures for sale for your dacha or estate.

And if you want to use branches to create crafts from natural materials in class at school, then here you go simple ideas how this can be implemented in labor lessons for boys. Everyone is taught cut out with jigsaws plywood figures. In addition to animal figurines, you can put together frames from slats and create beautiful landscape pictures of an autumn forest with mossy branches covered with lichen.

Similar ideas can be implemented in girls' labor lessons - without plywood and a jigsaw - by making a frame from cardboard rolled into a square tube (fold 4 pieces into a frame frame, insert branches into the holes), and cut out animal silhouettes from thick corrugated packaging cardboard from old boxes and paint in gouache, if desired.

Maple and ash seeds.

Dry lobed tree seeds can be played very interestingly in the most various crafts with your own hands.

You can make a mosaic craft from this natural material in the shape of a bird (because maple seeds look like feathers). You can lay out a pattern in the form of a butterfly on the glass, and thanks to the transparency of the background, it will seem that it is hovering in the air, as is done in the photo below. Maple seeds take well with watercolors, so your butterfly craft can come in all the colors of the rainbow.

At school or kindergarten From the same natural material you can make very simple children's crafts with a base on thick cardboard. Maple seeds can be the hairstyle on a drawn human head, they can become the bushy tail of a squirrel, the feathers on the wings of an owl, or the needles on a cardboard hedgehog (as in the photo below).

And maple seeds look like dragonfly wings. Therefore, you can make simple children's crafts in the form of Coleopteran insects. For example, string beads onto a wire (this will be the body) and glue the seeds to the body using glue or plasticine. The wings can be painted with nail polish and sprinkled with glitter. The bulging eyes of a dragonfly can be cast from frozen drops of the same nail polish. It will turn out beautiful, fast and simple craft made from natural material for children.

And this same maple natural material can become the basis for funny GRAPHIC CRAFTS-DRAWINGS with a regular black marker. We paint on the missing details to the snub noses and turn the seeds laid out on a sheet of paper into interesting graphics. These are already crafts for training your imagination - great idea for a circle on the topic “Learning to think creatively.”

STONES.

A simple rubble stone left over from dacha construction, or smooth river and sea stones can become the material for your natural crafts with your own hands. The stone itself can tell by its shape who it resembles. And all you have to do is take markers or gouache to bring this image to life.

If you feel like an artist in yourself, you can make complex multi-line drawings – as was done in the case of the owl craft made from stone. Or smooth, thick pebbles can look like clumsy, plump panda bears - and such a craft made from natural material will be feasible for children. First, we cover all the stones with white, dry them, and then with a black marker we draw the black details of the teddy bear on it.

Ordinary felt-tip pens draw very well on stones. After completing the general painting work, details of the drawing need to be given contours(clear boundaries) black felt-tip pen.

You can draw the silhouette of a snail or sheep on the stone yourself. And give the children the task of simply coloring the finished silhouettes, adding them with a pattern of stripes and dots or curls.

You can make a nest from dry grass and wire or other natural material. And put chicks made from stones with your own hands into this craft. Older children can color a complex picture with a chick and an open beak. For younger children, a simpler task in the form of chickens in shells will suit them.

On a piece of plywood or a round cut from a log, you can lay out a whole picture of painted stones and other natural materials. This craft is suitable for an autumn competition for school or kindergarten.

Older girls will enjoy exquisite pictures from the life of a fashionable girl - felt-tip pens, paints, stones and rhinestones.

You can use the mosaic technique to lay out a variety of characters from stones. Attach the stones with glue from a hot glue gun. The stones in the mosaic can be painted with gouache, or have their own natural color.

These can be landscape paintings made from natural materials (sea pebbles, pieces of glass ground with water, shells, etc.).
