Figurines made from vegetables and fruits with your own. DIY crafts from vegetables and fruits for an exhibition

Hello! Glad to see everyone again.

This is a golden and wonderful time. The nights have become colder, the days are getting shorter. The harvest is in full swing, or may have already come to an end. And so now we all started making crafts from vegetables and, of course, fruits.

This is such a small tradition, which is always dedicated to the autumn theme. Every school and kindergarten must host such exhibitions or events, and each of you can take part in them.

Well, today I will surprise you again, and I will try to make this selection exciting so that you take first place at the holiday. And they were, as they say, the best.

To be honest, I am amazed by this and also extremely admired by the works that I found exclusively on the Internet. How cool and beautiful they all are. How great, I can’t find the words! Still, the kids love this activity, creating something so interesting and fun. You definitely can't pass by.

Well, let's start in order. What do you think can be created from ordinary potatoes? Let's look together and figure out what and who is being asked to do. Yes, that’s right, for example, funny pigs or pigs.


Clumsy hippos who scream, oh, their tummies hurt).


Or maybe you like lamb better?


Or this shy puppy who is so cute and resembles a poodle.


And here is a potato caterpillar, as expected, on cabbage leaves.


And also an ant and a spider in autumn foliage and flowers.



And even Masha and Misha can also live at such an exhibition with you. It turned out to be a whole fabulous picture, and even with a goldfish. Make a wish.


Or one little bear with a pot of honey, which is also made from potatoes.

A team of eight friends... Remember this children's song, so Thomas is the main commander...


For adventure lovers and dreamers, I suggest making monsters.


Preschool children can build a duck with adults.


Or for example a kolobok. Moreover, you can draw eyes and decorate them in some unusual way. Among other things, if you find a suitable potato, a piglet will come out.



The same idea arose with this character, guess what? This is a cat.


Everyone’s favorite cartoons, namely the characters that children love so much, will also fit perfectly into this event. Watch this and Malyshariki with Kroshik and even Cipollino.




The simplest work is a hedgehog or monkey made from potatoes and toothpicks.


Make figures like this and it will be fun and interesting.

Now let's move on to the next vegetable. A well-known beauty is carrots. I also found a lot of interesting things from it, especially if it itself was born with different curvatures. For example, you see in this picture such a loving couple in the form of octopuses.



The simplest craft is a nest. Chop the carrots and place the birds. By the way, the chicken and cockerel are made from onions.

You can also learn how to easily decorate your interior with flowers, see these works. And it's all made from carrots. Can you imagine?

And they even made a bouquet. The main thing is to find a curly knife.


The house looks great, so log and powerful.


But they even made a horse on a board. The tail was made from onion feathers.


But the most popular carrot toy is the giraffe and other animals. Making them even without a master class will not be difficult. Look.

Well, if you still find it difficult, then this video will help you.

Here are a couple more ideas.



You can even make a palm tree or an island.

Now let’s take it and make crafts from beets. I fell in love with the owl at first sight. In reality, if you bring such beauty to a competition, you can definitely win.


Like carrots and cucumbers, beets are also served cutting, that is, carving. Usually they make roses or bouquets.



Or, if you don’t know how, you can cut the vegetables into pieces and put it on a cow or bull.


Or make a baby elephant.


Now go to the radishes and select the following pictures. Mostly they make mice, bees or mushrooms.




But what kind of musical heroes are the boy and the girl, as if they were performing on stage. And they light up the dance.


And of course, everyone’s favorite flowers from radishes or radishes also come out beautifully.


Or you can get by with slicing altogether.


Well, now I propose to consider souvenirs that will be made mainly from cabbage.

By the way, you can take absolutely any kind, iceberg, cabbage, and even broccoli or cauliflower. And create together with other vegetables.

This is what I had to get. This, as you probably guessed, is primarily a white poodle.


And here look at the whole composition of lambs and lambs.


Everyone's favorite bunnies or bunnies, and a perky puppy.


And this miracle won a prize at the competition last year.


Together with the frog princess and it’s not surprising. Who wouldn't like this?


And here, as you can see, is a Russian family, grandparents and granddaughter.


You can also make a sailboat from cabbage leaves together with zucchini or eggplant.


I liked the idea of ​​a child sitting in cabbage, but unfortunately I couldn’t find such a composition. But I found a chicken. I think you can do it without instructions.


Now let's make figurines from eggplants. You can probably immediately guess that the first option will be a penguin.


Here's a hint:


And it turned out to be Pororo the penguin.

The same method can be used to make a dolphin (whale) or a zebra.


Among other things, any transport, for example a helicopter, a tank and many others. See it all for yourself.




And girls will appreciate the shoes.


But from zucchini or squash you can make a terrible beast, this is a shark.


Well, and other sea inhabitants or fish.


And also snakes and even a crocodile.



In general, there are a whole dozen animals, take your pick. And even the swan queen came here.




By the way, if you like acrylic paints, then paint minions or other cartoon characters.


Hmm, the old forest man would fit in perfectly here too.

Well, of all kinds, they are probably the most popular, since you can put all the gifts of nature and autumn in them. I will not dwell on them in detail, if you wish, you can go and read my separate note. Here I will show only a couple of photos.





Toys and souvenirs made from bell peppers are very little popular. But that’s in vain, because such a vegetable is also good for creations. Look at the cute frog creatures that came out.


Or this bright little dragon.


And here is a sea of ​​flowers with tomatoes.

Well, in conclusion, let’s look at crafts made from cucumbers and tomatoes. I propose to make the muzzle or head of a cow or bull. And garnish with parsley or dill.


From cucumbers you can make such a charm, a shark.


In general, there are a great many such ideas, I will show you only a few.







You can make different faces of people and use different vegetables and fruits.


Now let's move on to fruits; first of all, you can make a caterpillar from apples.


Take tangerines or oranges and lay out your masterpieces. The stand is made of pineapple.

Or take pears, grapes, whatever you have, everything will do for such work.




All sorts of funny “products” made from bananas.



Of the pineapples, we mostly came across works in the shape of birds.

Do not cut all the way to the top, leave 1.5 cm.

The end result will be a flower that you made yourself.

Or there is another option, carrot cones. Of course, these works are only for beginners; those who have a lot of experience in this matter can make more complex figures.

To start, take a carrot and cut a square stand at the base.

Then round the diameter a little using a knife, cut off the edge.

Now make leaf-shaped cuts.

This is what should happen.

Well, in the end, a pile of such cones.

There is a video on YouTube showing how you can create a rose from vegetables. If you are interested in this technique, you can watch it right now by clicking on the view button.

Figured slicing and carving of vegetables and fruits “Delicious floral fantasy.”

Simple cutting of vegetables and fruits step by step with photos

Guest Ksenia Aleksandrovna, physical education teacher, Municipal Educational Institution “School No. 53”, Oktyabrsky village, Lyubertsy district, Moscow region.
Goal and objectives:
- development of creative abilities and imagination;
- form aesthetic taste;
- cultivate accuracy in performing work, caution;
- learn to cut vegetables using the carving technique
Purpose:
This master class is intended for high school children, teachers, parents and creative people. This design of dishes is suitable for any holiday, banquet and, simply, to improve the perception of food and good mood.

For decoration we will need:
Tomato, cucumber, lemon, orange, pear, apple, kiwi, onion, cutting board, 2 knives (large and small with teeth), 2 flat plates, towel.

Work progress.

Carving(from English carving - "cutting") - the art of artistic cutting of vegetables and fruits, as well as wood, ice and stones.
Advice for a beginner carvinger Not every fruit or vegetable is suitable for carving. So, for example, radishes should be large and bright, carrots should be even and smooth, oranges should be very fresh. It is better to take apples with smooth skin, cucumbers - smooth and with dark skin, pumpkins with rough skin have denser and easier-to-work with flesh. Decorations should match the dish in color, as well as taste. It is better to decorate meat dishes with cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, and seafood with lemons. Fruits will serve as an excellent decoration for dessert, or as an independent delicacy. When choosing combinations of products, give preference to contrasting colors - the compositions will be more enchanting. Red, green, yellow are favorites. Fruits and vegetables for carving must be clean and dry. There must be a golden mean in everything. You should not overly decorate dishes - moderation is important in everything.

1) The first vegetable we’ll start with is the tomato. Cut it in half and cut off the unnecessary part.


2) Then use a sharp knife to thinly slice one of the tomato halves.


If it is small, then you can combine two chopped halves into one. As in the photo.


3) After this, we “stretch” the tomato as thin as possible and begin to twist it into flowers.




4) To carefully transfer the finished flower to a plate, you need to grab it with both hands, pressing it on all sides.


Ready! You can put a lettuce leaf on the bottom of the plate.


5) Our flower is missing something. You can add parsley or make cucumber bells. To do this, place a cucumber on your palm. Using a sharp small knife, pointing it towards yourself, we cut the cucumber in the shape of a petal, plunging the knife blade to the middle. Then, turning it, we cut two more petals.


6) You should get a bell with three petals. To separate the flower from the cucumber, you need to turn it slightly and it will fall off on its own.




Then you can continue in the same order until the cucumber runs out.


You can add strips of pepper or olives to the middle of the bells.



7) You can also cut thin strips of cucumber and fold it in half without breaking it to complement our dish.



8) Gradually we move on to the bow. What can be made from onions? We can make it into a water lily. To do this, you need to peel the onion and soak it in cold water so that we don’t cry. Then you need to cut it evenly with cloves, plunging the knife only to the middle. When finished, it will easily separate into two halves.


All parts of the onion must be removed and assembled to form a flower.



9) Our decoration for the dish is ready and you can add chopped vegetables or assorted sausages.


If you want to treat your guests to sandwiches, you can use the middle for a tomato flower.



10) The vegetable decoration is ready. Now you can start decorating the fruit plate. To do this, we need to cut half an orange as described above.





11) We do the same with lemon.





By the way, lemon flower goes very well with fish products.


12) Next, cut the kiwi, as in the photo. You can decorate a plate or place it like this on top of fruit.



13) Right now it’s my favorite. Apple and pear wings. We will need halves of fruit.


Visually divide the apple in half. I cut out a strip for you, for clarity. On one of the halves we find the middle and immerse the knife, slightly deepening it. To make it easier to imagine, we seem to be cutting off the peel. You need to get half a petal.


Then on the other side we do the same, but we cut exactly to the corners made. You need to be careful not to cut off excess. The result is a leaf.



Stepping back from the cut 2-3mm, cut out the next leaf.




We cut until we reach our “border” of the apple.



Now we connect all the parts and move them apart so that we get a wing.



14) These wings look like petals, so they can be used in cooking to decorate any dishes. To prevent the apple from darkening, you need to sprinkle it with lemon or dip it in acidified water.

In general, this is our favorite time for creativity. It is during the summer and autumn seasons that such a variety of vegetables and fruits appears that you can create without ceasing. Nature sometimes creates such bizarre shapes. You look, for example, at a potato, zucchini or carrot, and the vegetable or fruit has already absorbed some kind of image. The task is only to supplement it a little. Make eyes, ears and now the interesting craft is ready.

A very great interest in such things increases among inquisitive and creative people during school competitions or exhibitions in kindergarten. This is where the fantasy comes into play. You can make one figurine, or you can create a whole plot using vegetables, fruits and other natural materials.

As a mother of two children, I understand that sometimes it’s not so easy to navigate and choose an idea for a craft. That’s why today’s topic is for you, where you can peek at already created souvenirs and creative ideas. After all, how it turns out. You take one thing as a basis, and then everything happens by itself. It's always difficult to start. Then the creative process is so exciting that in the end you are surprised that you created it. The main thing is to create with your children together. Don't miss this moment. As a rule, such projects are created to bring us closer to the child, spend time together and become closer in the process of work. And imagination and fantasies will help you get to know your child better and, of course, admire his talents.

We start our creative ideas with wonderful crafts from vegetables and fruits for competitions and exhibitions. It is the parents who have the most difficulty in this. And sometimes you don’t know what to use, what material, so look at the pictures that we have presented for you and already decide what exactly to take as a basis. In addition, children, as a rule, have a lot of different trinkets in their toys, which it would seem a shame to throw away and have nowhere to use them. And then an idea is born and all these objects are perfect for creativity.

To get even cut edges, use a sharp and thin knife. You can even use clerical. Be sure to do this under supervision and don't let kids cut out intricate pieces.

You can very beautifully and figuratively cut out whole bouquets and animals from eggplants, cucumbers and radishes

A child can make such a hare on his own, holding everything together with toothpicks.

If you have cauliflower rolls at home, make lambs or poodles.

Or this cute lamb by combining vegetables and fruits. You can fasten everything with the same toothpicks.

A very interesting combination of vegetables and fruits turns into a lion cub. Below is a detailed master tutorial showing how quickly and easily you can create this miracle.

Do not make the craft much in advance, as some products spoil very quickly, darken or wither. Calculate the choice of material so that you can understand how long the product needs to be preserved.


You can also quickly make an interesting snake with a playful face.

For the craft you will need cucumbers, carrots, a couple of carnations for the eyes and toothpicks for attaching the rings. To make the snake more expressive, you need to peel one cucumber and cut the vegetables into rings, including carrots, and alternate.

Crafts made from apples, especially if the fruit remains as intact as possible, are stored for a very long time. Therefore, if a competition or exhibition is planned, you can bring it in advance and by the significant moment the product will be like new.

A very good idea is to make a tumbler or a caterpillar out of apples.

Also take the plot from Chipolino’s work. Vegetables and fruits will not need to be cut. Just apply plasticine and design the faces of the characters.

Such crafts with many details are very fascinating. I want to look at them and find something interesting and new every time. So many fantasies!

How do you like the couple: the bride and groom? Zucchini is having a wedding.

If you don't want to bother with frogs, you can do it like this. From a distance it looks like he's holding ice cream, doesn't it? And this is just carrots and cauliflower.

Here is a more complex craft made from component parts. But cutting a cucumber is not at all difficult.

Well, continuing the theme of cucumbers, there is a huge variety of everything that can be created. And whales, and crocodiles, planes and ships.

Find cucumbers with tails and then they can turn into wonderful mice.

I saw a snail in crafts made from pumpkin and zucchini, but to use watermelon... It turns out very beautifully.

Tomato can also be used for crafts. Cutting out a cat's face is not difficult.

And of course fruit. There are also so many different creative ideas hidden in these sweet treats. But some fruits, such as bananas, spoil very quickly, so if you need a craft “on the run,” while you and your child are going to kindergarten or school, just buy a banana and make an octopus.

Or these dolphins

Oranges turn into fish

Or chickens

The trendy caterpillar is again made from apples and decorated with flowers and a cocktail umbrella. It turns out very cute

Returning to peppers, I suggest you not ignore exotic crafts, such as palm trees, for example.

Pears can also turn into funny little people.

1. Beautiful children's crafts from apples with their own hands - little men


In order to prepare a craft in the form of such simple guys, you will need the following components:
  1. Big apples.
  2. Some apple seeds.
  3. Simple toothpicks.
  4. Knife.

The process of making this children's apple craft:

  • you need to take two apples, one of which will be larger than the other, and place them on top of each other. Accordingly, a small apple will be on a large one. It is quite easy to fasten them together with an ordinary toothpick. These two apples will serve as the body of our future man.
  • After this, you need to cut four pieces from the apple. Two pieces will serve as legs and need to be secured at the bottom of the body. And accordingly, the other two pieces will be human hands and need to be secured to the sides.
  • you need to take a small apple and cut it into two equal parts. Each of the parts will serve as a man's hat.
  • pumpkin seeds will be needed to make the eyes and, accordingly, the nose of a person. The mouth can be cut out with a knife directly on the apple. However, there is another way: you can cut off a separate piece and secure it with the same toothpicks.

2. Crafts from vegetables and fruits - giraffe made from carrots or potatoes


In order to make a giraffe from vegetables with your own hands, you will need two potatoes of different sizes. Accordingly, the one that will be larger will act as the body of the giraffe, and the one that will be smaller in size will act as the head. In order to make a neck, a carrot is perfect, the tip of which will need to be cut off. The body and neck will need to be secured with toothpicks. Of course, any giraffe has ears and they can be made using small leaves or even seeds. In order to make the legs, you can take small twigs from any trees, and the tail itself can be made from grass, which you can also look for dried for beauty. The easiest way to make eyes for a giraffe is using cereal. Buckwheat is most often used. You can also make a giraffe from carrots, such as shown in the photo above.

3. Simple children's crafts of animals made from fruits - a mouse made from a pear

What to make such an unusual mouse from? From very simple ingredients like the pear itself, a couple of pumpkin seeds, a small piece of wire that has a plug and, of course, using a knife.

The process of making fruit crafts with your own hands:

First of all, let's make the mouse's ears: First, using a knife, you need to make cuts in the pear in the places where the ears themselves will be located. After this, you should slightly bend your ears back.

Next step: making mouse eyes from a pear. Let's take the pumpkin seeds that we wrote about earlier and you need to draw black pupils on them with a felt-tip pen or marker (whichever you prefer). After this, you need to make cuts where the eyes will eventually be located, and insert pumpkin seeds. There is nothing complicated about this fruit craft.

The last stage of this fruit craft is the mouse's tail. In order for the mouse to have a tail, you will need a wire, which was mentioned at the very beginning. We plug it in on the other side of the eyes with the plug facing out.

4. How to make children's crafts from pears - funny little people

If you suddenly feel sad in the fall, you can make these simple little people. To prepare the second one you don’t even need any additional ingredients. It will be enough to just take a knife and cut out your eyes and smile. If you want your little man to have legs and arms, you can simply take ordinary toothpicks and insert them in place of the arms and legs, respectively.


For cooking the first person, you may additionally need another pear, lettuce, grapes and banana. In order to make the eyes, we will need two circles, which we will cut from a banana. Using a marker or black felt-tip pen, we will make pupils on the circles themselves and attach them accordingly using toothpicks. The role of the man’s nose is played by a grape, and the role of the cap is a circle cut from a second pear. The lettuce leaf is just for beauty, and you can simply cut out a smile with a knife. By the way, if you want, you can also secure raspberries or blackberries with a toothpick on the tip of the pear.

5. DIY vegetable crafts - rat Larisa made from radish

Anyone who has radishes growing in their garden will get a rather interesting rat. You can’t tell her at all from the one that the well-known old woman Shapoklyak had. How to make yourself such a girlfriend? And it's very simple.


To make such a children's craft, You will need :
  • one large white radish
  • some lettuce or, if you don't have any, cabbage
  • one radish
  • some olives that will be stuffed with paprika
  • knife from the kitchen
  • five toothpicks.

Process:

  • The first step is to properly wash and properly dry your large radish. After this, you need to remove all the leaves from it. You can leave only those that are in the place of the tail of the future rat Lariska. You also need to remove all the roots, leaving them exclusively in the place of the future antennae.
  • After this, you should cut off the front part of the radish, and at the end, using one of the toothpicks, you should secure the same large radish. You should immediately stick in a couple more toothpicks so that they later act like hair on a rat’s beard.
  • in order to make the ears you will need to make two fairly large notches on the left and right, respectively. You will need to stick the same lettuce or cabbage leaves into them. There's really no difference. Perhaps the lettuce leaves are just a little brighter.
  • at the very end we will make eyes for the rat Lariska. We cut the olives into small circles and stick each one into the radish with a toothpick (as you can see, we couldn’t do almost anything without toothpicks). But what is a rat without eyebrows? They can be made using leftover radish pieces.

Fruit crafts are a very popular form of creativity. Children especially like this technique. Of course, because in the process you can enjoy delicious apples, oranges, bananas or something else, and the work itself is very exciting. This type of handicraft is similar to a game with tasty prizes.

Most often, fruit crafts are needed to participate in autumn competitions for school or kindergarten. However, they are relevant all year round, since interesting figurines are an excellent decoration for the holiday table. We invite you to get acquainted with different options and try to make something unusual from fruits with your own hands.

We have previously told you what crafts you can make from vegetables. If you and your child are preparing for a competition, use those ideas too: combine an unusual composition depending on what you have. If you often organize beautiful celebrations, we advise you to master the carving technique - creating beautiful carved figures from vegetables or fruits.

How to prepare fruit?

If you take up fruit crafts, you need to learn how to select them correctly. Always try to use only those fruits whose integrity is not compromised. It is advisable for everything to be unripe.

Stock up on lemon juice. If you are cutting apples or pears for crafts, spray them generously immediately after cutting. Never use overripe bananas - they will “destroy” all the other fruits in the composition, as they release special substances that help the rest of the fruits ripen.

If you decide to take a fruit craft to a competition at school or kindergarten, make it the day before the work is due. You can practice in advance, but do the final version the day before. If the craft contains chopped apples, it is better to add them in the morning.

The best way to hold fruits together is with toothpicks. Stock up on a large pack in advance.

Apple caterpillars

Even a child can master this craft. Feel free to bring it to the competition if necessary. Also, fruit caterpillars can become a delicious table decoration.

We will need:

  • carrot;
  • grape;
  • rowan;
  • safety pins;
  • marker;
  • any decor.

We fasten the apples from large to small one after another. The apple head is attached to the top with 3-4 toothpicks. Eyes can be made from safety pins by adding a pea or berry. Or just stick on an artificial version. Complete the faces with a permanent marker.

We use grapes to decorate horns or create noses. The legs can be made from carrots or grapes. It would be beautiful to wear a rowan necklace or a simple ribbon around your neck - we need to hide the junction of two apples.

Decorate the apple caterpillars with any decor. For this you can use paper hats, beads, dry leaves or something else.

Tangerine birds

This fruit craft can also become either a decoration for a holiday or an entry for a competition. If you choose the second option, avoid using pineapple.

We will need:

  • tangerines;
  • pineapple;
  • blueberry;
  • radish;
  • plum.

We make the main body from two tangerines. We connect them with a pineapple to make the structure stable. We cut the peel of another tangerine with thin scissors so that we get wings. The face can be made from radishes, blueberries and a safety pin.

Radishes can be replaced with cardboard or banana. We make hairstyles from something bright: plum, pepper, apple or something else. We make the beak from carrots or cardboard.

Make two birds and sit them next to each other. This fruit craft touches, causes delight and a smile. Well, making it with your own hands is easier than it seems - you just need to start.

Watermelon frog

Usually, baskets or boats are made from watermelon. They cut it in half, scooped out the pulp, washed it, dried it, added skewers - that’s the whole structure. What about a funny, original craft that you can’t help but laugh at?

We will need:

  • watermelon;
  • lime;
  • grape.

Make a hole in the watermelon using a sharp knife. Detach the part so that it looks like the fruit craft in the photo. Now we need to eat a little, because we don’t need the inside.

Leave some of the pulp if you are making the frog for a short time. If you do not throw away the craft today, scrape out the inside with a spoon, and then wash and dry.

We form legs from the cut part of the watermelon. We attach them to toothpicks. To plant the frog, you need to make the bottom a little flat. We make the eyes from halves of lime and grapes.

If you decide to surprise your guests with an unusual serving of fruit, you can “fill the belly” of the frog with grapes, pieces of melon or something else. Insert thin long skewers so that no one gets dirty, or provide forks.

Apple bear

Here you need to master carving a little - you will have to cut out some details. This craft is not intended for long-term storage. Usually children like such master classes, because during the work a lot of unnecessary edible parts appear.

We will need:

  • grape;
  • blueberry;
  • strawberry.

The lower apple looks like a thick core with a wide cap. Small details are best cut with a thin special knife. But if you don’t have one, you can use a vegetable peeler. Attach everything onto small skewers. Add half a grape and berries for the eyes. Decorate the craft with strawberries or give the bear a small plum.

If you don't have experience, you may have to do a lot of fiddling around. If small parts do not work out, you can make them from other fruits. For example, bear paws are cut from orange peel, and ears from grapes.

banana dolphin

This fruit craft is suitable for little ones. It is especially good if you want to feed your child a banana, but he does not agree. Also, such a craft is perfect for kindergarten work.

We will need:

  • banana;
  • carnation;
  • marker.

You need to choose a banana that is as curved as possible. Preferably greenish. Trim the tail so that it can be rounded. To make the tail, cut and peel back the peel and trim off the excess banana. The easiest way to make eyes is from clove buds. Draw a smile with a marker.

If you need to stick the dolphin into something, you can use a pineapple wheel or a watermelon cap.

Lemon mouse

This craft is also suitable for kids. The child can master it on his own: you only need help with the cutting part.

We will need:

  • lemon;
  • dill;
  • carnation.

Cut off the side of the fruit so that it becomes stable. Do not throw away this part. You can cut out two ears and a thin tail from it. We make the mouse's eyes from cloves, and the antennae from dill or any other cuttings.

If you are doing work for a competition for a kindergarten, use several fruits and make a whole family of little mice with your own hands. You can use lemons of different sizes or add limes.

Orange paintings

To make beautiful crafts from orange peels, you will have to eat a lot of fruit. Nice start to work, isn't it?

We will need:

  • oranges;
  • cookie cutters.

The peel must first be dried in the oven or naturally. When it becomes pliable and a little “dried”, you can start working.

Using cookie cutters you can easily make very beautiful crafts from this fruit. Just press them down and remove the excess. You can then pierce the peel to assemble a garland, or leave the piece to make an applique.

Using scissors, you can make even more interesting crafts that are perfect for a fruit composition competition in kindergarten or school. It is very convenient to first draw the outline with a marker and then cut it out.

Practice, imagine and get started! At the same time, strengthen your immunity.

Evil apples

Does your child like to play angry birds? Then it's time to make his favorite characters from his favorite fruits with his own hands.

We will need:

  • markers or acrylic paints;
  • paper;
  • any decor.

You can draw faces for fruit crafts on paper if you plan to eat them later. If you are preparing a craft for school, you can use acrylic paints or markers. By the way, acrylic can be easily replaced with school putty (the kind that corrects mistakes in notebooks).

Choose materials depending on your goals. Well, you can easily draw the famous faces of angry birds.

Grape man

Such a little man can be used as an independent craft if the child takes it to kindergarten. Or as part of a larger composition. Well, if you decide to play, make the little man company from another fruit or from grapes of a different color.

We will need:

  • grape;
  • acorn.

We fasten the grapes together using halves of toothpicks. The acorn must be separated from the cap. Make the eyes of the man from grape cuttings.

Similar people can be easily made from berries, plums or cherry tomatoes.

Apple pig

This Lucky Pig is one of the best fruit crafts to make with kids. Making it is simple, tasty and fun.

We will need:

  • plum.

We use one apple completely, cut the second in half. From one half we will make a head, from the second - ears and paws. We will make a nose from a banana and plant it on grape cuttings or cloves. You can take any other fruit.

We make eyes and a smile from plums cut into strips. To strengthen them, you need to make small cuts in the apple.

If you plan to take this craft to a kindergarten or school, it is better to take other fruits or vegetables. Or use the entire top apple, form the legs from carrots, and form the ears from orange peel.

We hope that you have found interesting fruit crafts for yourself or your children in this collection. Many of them can be adapted to, if relevant. For example, add a haystack to a pig, fallen leaves and dry branches to the birds, and sit a grape man among the moss. In short, crafts made from fruits and vegetables will always benefit from diversifying them with natural materials.
