Autumn crafts from vegetables and fruits. Crafts from vegetables and fruits School crafts from vegetables and fruits

Good afternoon, today we will make crafts from vegetables and fruits. In this article I have collected the most complete collection of the cutest crafts, with a theme suitable for kindergarten and school. Autumn competitions at school they often organize crafts made from vegetables (and not just from chestnuts and pine cones). It happens very often that that your child did not immediately tell you about the competition, often you will only find out about the craft by Monday on Sunday evening. And therefore, it is important to quickly EVALUATE the contents of your pantry and FIND an idea in the depths of the Internet that will suit your vegetable household stock.

That's why I decided to combine in one article all types of vegetables and fruits who can take part in creating crafts for the garden and school. You don't have to sift through heaps of Internet pages. Here you will find all ideas for children's crafts– in one article at once.

Here's what we'll be doing today:

• Crafts from cucumber, pepper.
• Crafts for the garden from onions, cabbage and potatoes.
• Crafts and eggplants and zucchini.
• Carved sculptures-crafts from carrots and radishes.
• Flat crafts-paintings from vegetables and fruits.
• Animal crafts from oranges, kiwi, bananas and lemons.
• Crafts from watermelons, pineapples, and melons.
• And I put it in a separate article

CRAFTS FROM VEGETABLES.

We'll start with vegetable children's crafts... and then we'll move on to sweet fruit sculptures. You will see that you can make a chipmunk out of an ordinary onion. And cut roses from radishes, which will bloom on their own if you put them in a glass of water. What am I telling you... now you will see everything for yourself.

Crafts FROM ONION for school and garden.

You can make many interesting sculptures from vegetables as well as from fruits. Here are the onion chickens. We take the young onion out of the garden right along with the stem, and cut the stem-stem into feathers - we move them apart, this “broom” we place on a carrot base post.

And here is another craft FROM RED ONION. Chipmunk with white stripes and fluffy tail from onion feathers. I'll tell you in detail how to make it yourself...

Take two red onions suitable size and shape (it is better to take fresh bulbs, straight from the garden - they are then even in color and elastic). And we immediately make white stripes on them - for this you need to cut the top skin of the onion with a blade and then carefully remove it (like shavings) so that you get a white “bald patch” in this place.

Forming a little body— take a long wooden skewer or toothpick and stick it into the belly bulb in the area of ​​the future neck. And stick an onion head onto the protruding end.

Making a tail- bend the green feathers of the onion into the shape of a tail, the lower part of the tail tie with thread or rubber band in a bundle.. And in a saucepan cook sugar syrup(3 tablespoons of sugar + half a teaspoon of water) - when the sugar melts and boils, coat the onion feathers with this sticky sweet glue (so that they stick together into a single tail) - dry it all. And then we pierce the lower and middle part of the tail-bun with toothpicks and stick it into the back of the onion-butt.

Paws- these are cuts on the onion-tummy. To make the paws detach and protrude from the tummy, you can place pieces of plasticine under them. Ears These are small slices from another onion - we stick them into the slits on the chipmunk’s head. Eyes- these are olives (you can use raisins, or pieces of black eggplant skin). The tendrils are also white cuts on the colored skin of the onion.

You can paste over a rectangular box (of tea or cookies) with onion feathers and make it from such a blank VEGETABLE RECORDER... or RADIO. Vegetable buttons are pricked with toothpicks or glued to sugar syrup (see recipe in Onion Chipmunk).

PUMPKIN CRAFTS

flesh carving.

Crafts from PUMPKIN PUMP . Even pumpkin pulp can become a source of beautiful crafts. The pumpkin is soft enough to cut out whatever your heart desires. For example, these majestic pink flamingos.

Birds can also be cut out from regular CARROTS. In the photo below we see how a man creates his masterpieces right on the street.

You can make a simple sculpture from the whole side of a pumpkin - for example, the face of a donkey.

Pumpkins are very interesting products for creativity. You can talk about it for a long time and with photo examples. Therefore, many various crafts I collected from pumpkin in a special article

Crafts from radish vegetable

white and pink.

From WHITE RADISH You can also cut out beautiful parrots. White radish - resembles a huge white carrot. It can be cut perfectly with a knife into any shape. And the wings don’t have to be made from radishes either. You can take hard stalks from BEIJING CABBAGE. Beautiful and simple craft from vegetables for kindergarten and school. The jury will really like it.

And here is a craft made from red radishes... Also a very cute family of pink birds in a nest made of tops, pods or onion feathers.

And a gorgeous bouquet of vegetable roses. Here are photo instructions on how to do it. We cut the radishes with a knife into shavings - in checkerboard pattern(like cabbage leaves on a stalk). Then we put such a cut radish in water - and under the influence of water it swells and opens its petals. We string the buds onto wooden skewers - and so that the stems are green, we insert each skewer inside an onion feather.

FLOWERS FROM VEGETABLES

crafts-bouquets for the garden and school.

And below we see how flowers are created from vegetables and fruits. Oval flowers with a halo of narrow petals (also from radishes), orange buds with a berry in the middle (from tangerines). Palms made from bell peppers and a carrot trunk, or a skewer trunk and grapes strung on it.

Here's an idea on how to create lush tulips from sweet peppers. Or delicate white daisies made from thinly sliced ​​white mini pumpkins (with a yellow carrot center). An excellent craft for children who are bored at the dacha.

And here is a way to make ASTRA from the stalk of Chinese cabbage. If you add rose flowers from red cabbage to such a Beijing aster, you get an elegant composition for an exhibition at school or kindergarten.

Crafts from Zucchini and other vegetables.

Here is the ZUCCHINI ZUCCHINI penguin bird - with a sweet red pepper bow and orange eyes. It’s very easy and accessible to make with your own hands, even for children.

And here is another bird with a tomato head and a green crest and green pepper wings. The belly is a white zucchini.

You can make human or animal heads from squash crops.

If the fruit has a pointed shape, then you can play it like the face of a puppy or mouse.

You can also make a sculptural dragon craft from zucchini halves. But this is a real challenge to our creativity. The most important thing here is the head - if you get the muzzle, then you can continue and make the body.

Using the same principle, you can create similar composite sculptures from oranges.

BLACK EGGPLANT

vegetable crafts for the garden.

The black color of the eggplant tells us the creation of black and white animals that live on our planet - and these are ZEBRAS, WHALES, PENGUINS, AND KOALAS. (I didn’t find koalas among the photos of crafts - but it’s a good idea).

Eggplant can act as an insert element in crafts made from other vegetables (see photo below with a rooster and monkey).

Crafts from cabbage and other vegetables.

Cauliflower is an interesting material in its structure. Its bizarre shapes themselves suggest the theme of vegetable sculptures. These are, of course, sheep, polar bears, poodles and other furry animals.

CRAFTS FROM POTATOES.

Even ordinary potatoes can become an interesting tool for children's creativity. These minions can be made from potatoes - they can be dressed in overalls made from black eggplants. The minions themselves can be painted with yellow gouache paint. Glasses can be cut from round carrots (cut the carrot into a circle and cut a round hole in the circle).

The very shape of the potato can give you an idea for a craft - in the photo above we see that the potato in the shape of panties suggested the idea of ​​​​creating a girl in shorts. You can also look for interesting shapes in a bag of potatoes - for example, in the form of Peppa Pig's head, you very often come across them.
You will find more ideas for potato crafts in a special article on our website

Crafts FROM PEPPERS and other vegetables.

Sweet and hot peppers can be a source of inspiration. Their smooth, shiny shape guarantees the beauty of the final craft. Like this motorbike can be assembled by connecting all the parts with toothpicks (plasticine can be placed inside as an additional fastener for toothpicks). Thread citrus wheels onto toothpicks as well.

Roosters and overseas birds can be made from peppers in a fancy curved shape. You can look for these in a store, or better yet, at the market or at your dacha.

But crabs and crayfish... They are made from several pepper vegetables. And to be honest, PHOTOSHOP was also WORKED here (removed what was unnecessary and completed what was not needed) - but the idea is still the same worth it to try to implement it for real.

And here, in the photo below with dragon, everything is fair. No photoshop - only skillful hands masters and the artist's eye. Bean pods (whiskers and horns), corn stalks (ears and tail), apple (for the muzzle), carrots (paws and spinal teeth), toothpicks (claws and fasteners).

It is important to be able to look at fruits and vegetables this way an artist's eye, squint, blur your eyes and suddenly, in this foggy haze, see a future sculpture in a pile of vegetables.

CRAFTS FROM CUCUMBERS.

Sculptures for kindergarten are most often animals. Children love animals, and animals love children. This is how nature intended it. Therefore, we will make cute animals from cucumbers. Cucumbers are, of course, GREEN CROCODILES.

Although sea inhabitants (dolphins and sharks) can also be carved from a green greenhouse cucumber. Make fins, gills-cuts, a white neck with a slit of a toothy mouth.

PICTURES FROM VEGETABLES.

But what kind of flat collage crafts can be made from vegetables and fruits. You can take famous paintings by famous artists as an ideological basis. And try to repeat them in your vegetable creativity.

Alon Zaid, an elderly artist, came up with the idea of ​​recreating famous paintings from fruits and vegetables. Here is the quiet Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci, The Son of Man by Rene Magritte, the portrait of Dora Maar by Pablo Picasso

Here you go, Mona Lisa, aka Gioconda, by the great master Leonardo Da Vinci.

Here is another famous painting by Pablo Picasso.

You don’t have to repeat the MASTERPIECES of painting from the Hermitage... but come up with your own painting from vegetables.

And also don’t forget that in addition to vegetables, THERE ARE ALSO FRUITS. And they have their own visual capabilities. Its bright colors and interesting drawings cut.

So, since we got to the fruits, let's see what we can do for the garden competition using these fruits.

FRUIT CRAFTS

And now, let's move on to fruit compositions and sculptures. I will show you the easiest crafts to implement with your own hands from apples, pears, bananas, pineapples, aruboza peels and melon fruits.

Crafts from pulpy fruits
apples, kiwi, pears, bananas.

Here are some cute childish crafts made from kiwi. To create them, you need to select unripe hard fruits. The slices need to be blotted paper napkin so that the juice does not bleed through.

But crafts from apples and pears - if you use one whole fruit + a thin slice of the second fruit, you can get such interesting crafts (a mouse and an elephant). Where thin slices serve as details for the ears and face. And from an apple cutting you can make a trunk for an elephant. Delicious and fun crafts that you can make with your kids and then eat.

And here are crafts made from juicy pears. To create such birds, we choose harder varieties.

And to prevent the cut area without the peel from darkening, you need to lubricate it with a brush dipped in lemon juice.

And if you are making a craft from a pear, without the peel, and even with finely chopped feathers (as in the photo of the birds below), then it is better to protect such a craft so that it does not darken, and so that the “feathers” do not fall out and wrinkle. We use gelatin for protection. Pour gelatin powder with water. When it swells, heat it until it dissolves (but do not bring it to a boil!!!). And we grease our entire craft with this warm gelatin syrup. It will become shiny and will look fresh for a long time, nothing will darken or wither. Only important— we make the gelatin solution for such a lubricant 2 times thicker than jelly. That is, we read the instructions on the package and pour 2 times more powder into 2 times less water.

Crafts from bright red apples are made using exactly the same principle. Treat white sections with lemon juice(so as not to turn black) and can also be greased with gelatin syrup (so as not to wither and wrinkle).

Can be done crab craft from apple slices - also paint it in beet juice so that it is red, or grease it with lemon juice so that it remains white (does not rust).

You can make it from a green apple hummingbird. A great little fruit craft for kids.

You can make pots with flowers from the tops of large apples - cut the bald spots of the petals into them - you will get an elegant composition with your own hands from vegetables.

Children's crafts from bananas.

Of course you need to make minions out of bananas. This is clear to everyone. Bananas are yellow, so are minions. You can dress them in overalls made of cucumbers. You can make a whole family for an exhibition in a school or kindergarten.

You can make an octopus out of a banana. Add citrus fish and red pepper crab to it (see photo below in this article). And make a whole underwater kingdom out of vegetables and fruits.

Or make a cute duck family out of banana tails.

Here's an idea for dachshund puppies - with skinned ears and green tails. The eyes are cut out and the pupils are inserted from black paper.

CITRUS CRAFTS

along with helping vegetables.

In lemons, you can play with their shaped feature - a POINTED NOSE. And make these cute little mice out of lemon (you just need to cut off their side so that the mouse lies on its tummy. Cut round ears from the peel of the cut lemon tummy. Cut a lemon on the top of the little mouse’s head and insert an ear into the cut. Cut a thin tail from the scraps of skin. And honey A children's craft for a competition in the garden or school is ready. By the way, you can use a piece of pumpkin. make MOUSE CHEESE and even cut round holes in it.

If you cut a lemon or orange peel along the contours we need - and then peel it off. We get a curly “bald patch” on the orange (as in the photo with crafts below). This citrus “bald patch” can serve as a white belly for two chickens or penguins (in the right photo below).

From oranges you can make a cat (with cut stripes on the back and tail) and a bear cub with tangerine ears.

All parts are pinned onto toothpicks and stuck into the orange pulp.

Citrus peels are great for cutting into any flat figures(like cardboard). Therefore, it can be used to carve complex carved shapes of fish fins and tails. Beautiful crafts in underwater style, add crabs from apples, starfish from orange peels.

Citrus fruits can be used in crafts as an addition to a sculpture made from vegetables (for example, in the form of a wing for a parrot made from tomatoes and onions). Or the entire sculpture can be made from oranges cut into round shapes (as in the photo with the lion below).

If you take a rectangular cardboard box and cover it with orange peel, you will get the basis for creating a camera.

PINEAPPLE CRAFTS

and other fruits and vegetables.

Here are interesting ideas for those who don’t mind sacrificing pineapple for children’s creativity. A small melon can become the head of an owl - we make eyes from round radishes and olives, winged eyebrows from the peel of black eggplants, yellow paws from lemon halves.

From half a pineapple you can make a crocodile with eyes (radishes and olives) and paws (kiwi). Of course, such a crocodile requires a lot of pineapple sides. It’s not my salary to get carried away with this - but if you don’t have financial problems, then choose this cutie - the pineapple crocodile will definitely not remain in a modest shadow at the school exhibition.

Or you can make a turtle from one half of a pineapple - and cut the legs and head from the pulp of a pumpkin, carrot, potato or other vegetable or fruit. A simple and beautiful children's craft made from vegetables.

And here is a pineapple hedgehog. To be honest, this is most likely the result of Photoshop, or the very painstaking work of a pineapple pulp cutter - you need to cut the peel off the side of the pineapple, then shape the pulp into the shape of the legs and head. Then use toothpicks to secure the stem comb to the hedgehog.

But the idea with a parrot bird is suitable if you find a pineapple with a long tail. We cut it from the pineapple by pushing the knife deeper into its pulp so that the tail is cut off along with the yellow center. We stick a red pepper nose and olive eyes into the parrot's head and attach it to a wooden skewer to its habitat.

Crafts from WATERMELON RIDS.

You can make many crafts from watermelon. We are all familiar with the masterpieces of watermelon rind carving. Here I will not offer complex sculptural tricks. We are simple parents - we are not that talented - we need simpler ideas. Here I have collected the most affordable ones to the common man crafts made from watermelon rind.

Here's a turtle The craft is easy to do with your own hands - Cut the watermelon so as to remove the side round part (this will be the shell) - remove the pulp so as not to interfere. On this oval part we draw future patterns with a felt-tip pen, and then we cut all the contours with a knife - we get a carved shell pattern. All that remains is to cut out the paws and head from other pieces of crust - attach all this with toothpicks to the bottom of the shell.

And here are the gaping mouths of sharks and frogs. We also draw future cuts on the watermelon. Cutting a segment of watermelon - we get a mouth cutout. We remove all the pulp from inside with a spoon and eat it. And then with an empty watermelon belly we do what we need - either a frog or a shark . Shark teeth are very easy to make– first, we make a shallow cut-groove along the edge of the mouth (to the depth of the green layer). Then along this groove we cut off the thin green skin - and the thick one white skin leave it. From this remaining white part we form teeth - we simply cut out and throw out triangular segments from it - and we get triangular remains - teeth. We make a slot - insert the fin into it - make a chipped indentation for the eyes and insert black olives.

And the frog doesn't need to have teeth - the eyes are made from halves of a green lime and two cherries on toothpicks.

Here is an example of how you can make a cartoon character out of a watermelon. In the first case (minion), we put a large yellow POMELO fruit inside the green watermelon overalls.

But here are crafts for boys made from oblong watermelons - watermelon ships and a submarine. We don’t sell such oval watermelons, but you can try to make similar crafts from round ones.

Or use an oval melon. Sails made of orange peels.

You can make a chicken out of an orange and put it in a small melon like a shell. A rabbit with ears, a frog, or create your own character.

But crafts made from melon are more complicated - an owl with lettuce leaves and a watermelon belly. Fish with carved scales and fins.

Here are some ideas for crafts made from vegetables for an exhibition in the garden or school. I hope you have found a craft that suits your needs here and will be happy to make it with your children. What you do with your own hands heals the soul. It seems to me that it doesn’t hurt for every person to take a break from watching TV and please their soul and their children a little.

Doing something together, amicably, without arguing or quarreling in the process is another day that you will remember with warmth years later. It's moments like these that are remembered.... and not those when the boss handed you a certificate... Everything vain fades from memory over the years... but the present takes root and remains a bright picture in old age. Let's collect such pictures - in our hearts.

Let's create such moments for our children - let them have something to remember about their childhood. After all, what do we remember about our childhood years? Only these are the days when dad and mom suddenly forgot about their adult affairs and spent time in stupid and useless, but so fun and necessary, fun with the children.

Happy vegetable gardening.

Crafts from vegetables: pumpkin faces

Greetings, my dears! You and I fully immersed ourselves in autumn worries: we made preserves for the winter (compotes, preserves, pickles). But since September 1, new concerns have come to all homes where there are children. They are connected to a kindergarten and school. And I myself know firsthand how unexpected it is to always hear from a teacher or teacher that you need to bring autumn crafts from vegetables or fruits. Because you need to take part in an exhibition on the theme “Autumn”. And the care of moms and dads begins. They think about what they can do that is quick, beautiful and simple. Vegetables and fruits are taken from the cabinets. Each fruit undergoes careful selection, and the head of the family goes to the neighbors or simply looks for a suitable idea on the Internet. In general, you definitely won’t be bored.

I want to make this task easier for parents and have made a large selection of photographs of various ideas and crafts made from fruits. There are easier options, but there are also more complex ones. When you need to gather all your neatness to make it beautiful. But the chance of getting some kind of nomination immediately increases.

Thank you in advance to all the parents, grandparents, and brothers and sisters who share their creativity on social networks and the Internet in general. Thanks to your desire to show joint creativity on one of those sleepless nights, other parents get a lot of new ideas for their crafts.

Let's look at craft options by type of vegetable. There are a lot of ideas and often, in addition to the fruit itself, you need to take wire, a toothpick, paper or fabric. You can create an individual fairy tale character, or you can create an entire composition.

Pumpkin crafts

The easiest way is to make a recognizable character from cartoons and fairy tales. And often all you need is paint. You can also print some elements on a printer and stick them on the character.

A cute minion for your attention. There are toothpicks stuck on the top of the head, and a string instead of handles.

The Mouse Family also looks very memorable. The ears are made of colored cardboard. And stuck into the pumpkin using skewers. They are sold at most hardware stores. You can use any thick paints. But, if your craft will delight children on the street. Then coat it with varnish.

The boys come in to make this ninja turtle. I think that dad will not refuse to help his son in this venture.

Simple cute faces that for some reason remind me of the Scarecrow from the fairy tale about the Emerald City.

The creators of the cartoon “Smeshariki” helped us, parents, a lot. After all, there are as many as ten round characters. They can all be made from vegetables: potatoes, pumpkin or cabbage.

In front of you is Kopatych in a hat with autumn leaves.

Another cute face with sad eyes. All additional parts can be made from plasticine or paper. You can glue them on with double-sided tape. Sunflower flowers, artificial grass and live grass are used to decorate the hat.

By the way, you can use felt for the sides of the hat, eyes and nose.

I also found this wise owl interesting. Instead of eyes, you can use small squash or heads of garlic.

In order for the fake to last longer, the pulp and seeds are removed from it.

More character options. I think that making them will take no more than an hour of parental time.

Unusual ideas of black cats, mice and hares also spark the imagination. No additional tools are needed here; you don’t even always need a knife.

These are great examples for developing children's imagination. How to look at an ordinary product and see an animal in it.

If you try a little longer, you can sculpt Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland.

Now let's move away from the heroes and move on to the compositions. This is how pumpkins make very beautiful houses.

These crafts take longer to make, but you can make a fairytale hobbit hole.

And in this house live creatures made of bulbs.

For happy parents of daughters, there is an idea that does not depend on time - this is a carriage for Cinderella.

You can use absolutely anything for decoration: beads, leaves, berries and ribbons.

Another composition option is to make a basket or vase for other fruits and flowers. In autumn there are a lot of different buds: asters, dahlias, gladioli, September flowers and others. Let's make up autumn bouquet and put it in a pumpkin vase.

Use ranetki, rowan and different colors leaves. A bouquet of red, yellow, green and orange leaves will look so beautiful.

I couldn't get past this honey lover. I think he looks a lot like Winnie the Pooh.

Well, with your preschooler you can make Tortilla the turtle from the fairy tale about Pinocchio. You can also use assorted vegetables: carrots and potatoes. Moreover, they are attached in such a way that all the media are covered, which means that the darkened pulp will not be visible and the craft will remain bright and beautiful for a long time.

You can also make a duck. Sometimes the very shape of a vegetable reminds us of something. The main thing is to understand what exactly))

Look, nature did everything for us. The main thing is to give the right features and you will already have a beautiful goose with beads made of rowan berries.

You can combine vegetables. Let's say take a zucchini and a small pumpkin. And from these vegetables, the parents were able to come up with snails like these.

You make a shape, and let the child decorate the “shell”, make horns and eyes. So, there is a job for everyone.

How about such a simple but very interesting pig?

Or here's Daddy Pig. The main thing is that he stays on his short legs.

Another version of a pig with ears and a tail made of paper. And instead of a spout they attached half a Kinder egg.

I found a couple of ideas for zucchini whales. Look how simple it is and without unnecessary details. The fins and tail are made from pea pods, and instead of a water fountain, you can attach a stem of parsley or dill.

Or you can cut it all out of cardboard, as the authors of this kitten did.

There are ideas for airplanes and ships for boys. By the way, a similar airplane can be made from a cucumber.

And seat the crocodile Gena in the pilot’s seat. This craft surprised me a little with its red beet star. Oh, and these parents are inventors!

Here Gena is made from zucchini, not cucumber. And next to it is a pumpkin Cheburashka and a squash tree. And tangerines complete the plot. How can we do without them if we recreate a fairy tale?

How do you like the ship? I think that the child will not want to take it to kindergarten, but will start playing corsairs at home. Cabbage sails always catch the wind, and a carrot rudder never goes astray.

Another idea with Smeshariki, who went on a journey in zucchini cars.

You can send such a donkey to the exhibition. He is carrying a full basket of autumn fruits.

My daughter loves the resilient snowman Olaf. Apparently, he won the hearts of many girls, since his parents sculpt him from a zucchini. And how similar it is to the original is just a sight for sore eyes.

Previously, we made a penguin for kindergarten. But you can repeat it from vegetables.

You can make simple things that will look like fairy tales. For example, these shoes or sandals.

Oh, and here mom clearly tried and reproduced those happy days when her baby was still asleep in his crib.

Idea with a bunch of cabbage. At the right approach it turned out to be a duck.

Now let's move on to the blue ones, from which you can make all the ideas that were shown above.

Eggplant ideas

The color of eggplant immediately gives a certain direction to the imagination. And I came across a lot of options for whales and penguins from this vegetable.

Look how similar it is to real birds. They just correctly conveyed the habits of these creatures.

Eggplant and potato friends.

Another idea for a little penguin from the cartoon “Madagascar”. The same fearless gaze and defiance of fate.

If you master the art of carving (vegetable carving), then you can safely sculpt such a zebra. An important condition there will be special tools that easily cut the skin and have narrow, sharp blades.

The King Whale is swimming in the sea. And your baby will really like it.

Is it difficult for you to make a poodle? With a bell pepper bow and a cauliflower face.

Another simple craft for kindergarten or primary school in the form of a helicopter. The propeller is made of carrots and is held in place by toothpicks.

Let's move on to the next vegetables.

Several variations of carrots

Carrots are often used to make parts for other crafts. But it can itself present interesting forms. How do you like a giraffe with matchstick horns? Very nice.

Or a horse with an onion-like mane. All parts are held on with toothpicks.

More unusual idea in the form of a goldfish.

From cabbage

You can make cute rabbits or a baby elephant from white cabbage. Beetroot is suitable for the head.

Here is another cute little animal from two heads of cabbage.

The bouncing bunny with cucumber ears will definitely captivate the teacher with her sweet smile. Only it will be a little heavy for a child, after all, two heads of cabbage.

Here's another little rabbit with potato legs. The nose is made from a tomato, and the eyes are made from boiled eggs. They can be replaced with an onion.

Cute ideas for poodles made from cauliflower sprigs.

The inflorescences themselves are very reminiscent of lamb's wool. So let's reproduce it.

Here is a sheep standing in a green clearing.

The muzzle can be made from potatoes, peppers or carrots.

Even champignon mushrooms can serve as a face for a cute animal.

It's a pity that we have all our cauliflower Already eaten, cooked.

From corn

An ear of corn costs 20 rubles in September. I think it could make a very inexpensive craft. What can you do? Well, for example, a rocket.

Or a horse that grazes on a bow.

Dear bunny. I apologize for the quality of the photo, but I really liked the idea.

How do you like the minions? denim sundresses?. I think it turned out very funny.

And such an animal? He looks a lot like a squirrel.

You just need to make sure that the corn is fresh, otherwise the grains may fall out and the craft will not be so neat.

From potatoes

Piglets made from tubers and plasticine are very similar to real pigs.

And even if you don’t have time at all, you do have a healthy sense of humor. Make a family like this. After all, the main thing is the idea and presentation, it is the freshness and unusualness of the craft that fascinates.

The bizarre shapes of the tubers can be very reminiscent of some kind of animal. For example, if you combine two potatoes, you can get a dog like this.

Or a heroic horse.

I also found this funny hippopotamus.

From cucumbers

A little higher we saw a crocodile made from a cucumber, but you can also make a shark.

Continuing the marine theme, I will show you a beautiful killer whale.

Or funny frog princesses.

Well, the cucumber turtle in glasses and a cap will definitely captivate everyone. She will definitely sing now: “Three hundred years ago...”

Crafts from onions and other vegetables

Look how funny Luntik turns out.

If you have chestnuts growing, then you can safely make a hedgehog with them.

You can also make a beautiful hedgehog from squash and toothpicks.

How do you like the needles on the animal’s back in the shape of a sunflower?

Or like this.

Funny parrot made from bell pepper.

Bell peppers make beautiful tulips.

When there are only chestnuts at hand, see how you can beat them. The result was oak from autumn leaves, at the roots of which lie “acorns”.

Olive and pepper palms will also win many hearts at the exhibition.

The grandfather of chestnuts and cones is very similar to a goblin.

A plot from the fairy tale about Cipollino with Countess Cherry.

I also liked the set of different vegetables. Quite fast, but very interesting and varied.

The eyes are cut out of paper.

There are also a lot of ideas here.

Topiary, magic mugs

I wrote how to make topiary. You can also take this idea as a basis and make it from garlic and hot pepper.

Or chestnuts and rowan berries.

By the way, such crafts can not only be sent to an exhibition, but also left for home decor.

Another idea with a magic bowl. The photographs show artificial fruits, but fresh analogues can also be used.

Agree, such a craft deserves attention.

Queens of autumn

I think that when you have very little time, you can take an ordinary doll as a basis and decorate it for autumn theme. Add berries and leaves, fruits and flowers.

Make a whole composition. After all, the doll will personify Autumn itself.

Fun idea for queens with leaf crowns and watermelon dresses.

Now let’s get close to small fruit crafts.

Beautiful and quick DIY crafts made from fruits

Fruits are most often small in size, with the exception of melon and watermelon. This is where we will start our delicious selection.

Minions are very easy to make, so they are sculpted from different types vegetables and even watermelon.

The melon bunny is also very cute.

Sweet boat.

So many interesting ideas can be found from an apple. It is dense and holds its shape well. But its flesh quickly darkens. To prevent this from happening, the craft can be lowered into a solution of citric acid.

The family of caterpillars looks very decent.

You can make a panel from pumpkin and sunflower seeds. Why not an autumn craft?

Well, the kiwi koala just captivated me. Kiwi needs to be firm and sour. Otherwise, all the pulp will leak out.

My dears, but that’s not all. Indeed, one can simply envy the parents’ fantasies.

Master class on lemon mice for kindergarten

For small children it is difficult to come up with compositions with a lot of decorations and details. I would like to invite you to make a little yellow mouse out of a lemon with your baby.

Only mom works with sharp objects. And even a three-year-old child can insert parts into the slots.

We will need:

• lemon,
• 2 clove inflorescences,
• wire or thick thread.

First, cut a quarter of the lemon lengthwise. This is how we made the base so that the mouse’s body would not fall. We cut off the zest from a small part so that we have enough for small ears and a tail.

From one edge of the lemon, where we have a sharp tip, we stick a clove. She acts as our eyes.

We make a slit in the peel and insert the ears. Attach the tail to the body with a toothpick.

The antennae can be made with wire by simply piercing the muzzle right through. Or you can make them from thread by stitching the fruit with a needle.

That's the whole craft. Fast and interesting.

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 various 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.

Or, if you don’t know how, you can cut the vegetables into pieces and lay out 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.

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.

In fact, this technique can be mastered in a couple of hours, the main thing is to find necessary tools and have patience. Unfortunately, you can’t do this without special knives.

I suggest you first master the simplest option and make a chrysanthemum from Chinese cabbage.

To do this, take the cabbage and cut off all the bad leaves.

Then you will need a grooved knife with any oval or triangular cross-section.

And where you see the veins, make cuts to the base.

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.
