Wood is an eco-friendly material, and branches can be easily found in the park near the house, DIY crafts come out of them magnificent.

House of branches

Material selection

In a famous fairy tale, three little pigs built houses from different materials, only the stone one survived. We are not afraid of the gray wolf, adopting the experience of Nuf - Nuf, we will build a house of branches with our own hands. First of all, we go to the forest or to the park, in search of wooden materials.

It is better to choose a clear autumn day for this.

Moss, pieces of bark are useful for decoration, pine needles, acorns, cones, take whatever you like, come in handy for decorating crafts.

If the weather was wet, everything will have to be thoroughly dried at home, wet blanks will not stick.

To build a hut with your own hands, the branches do not need to be cleaned, on the contrary, the more roughness and negligence, the more interesting and natural the craft will be. We carefully examine all the material and build a plan for the future home.

If your imagination is well developed and able to capture images, you can not draw a sketch. But a little sketch is worth doing.

We select suitable wooden branches and cut them according to the sketch. To avoid too large gaps in the craft, make notches on both sides, as on logs for building log cabins.

Construction works

Build Regular wooden house a hut with your own hands is easy, just fold the shelves alternately up and down. For structural strength, each row must be coated with glue, use ordinary PVA or a hot glue gun.

Don't forget to leave room for windows and doors. window frames and the door can also be made from glued branches or from a small piece of plywood.

We make the frame for the roof from the same branches, but the coating can be the most diverse. Yellow fresh straw will shine brightly in the sun. Small twigs will ensure the unity of the composition, and colorful autumn leaves will create a festive mood.

Decoration

Decorate the local area of ​​a wooden house with moss and other natural materials. Excellent mushrooms will come out of acorn caps. Coniferous bushes will create an entourage for crafts.

Or maybe you will get a real hut on chicken legs with a friendly hostess woman.

You can build a house with your own hands in another way. Use ancient weaving technology. This technique makes excellent round buildings for kikimora.

A curious effect is given by the chaotic gluing of knotty pieces onto the frame - the base.

House of ice cream sticks

To dial right amount wooden sticks, it is not at all necessary to collect them for a whole year or count a ton of goodies at once. Now this is a very popular material, you can buy them in a needlework store or in a supermarket in the department disposable tableware.

New wooden sticks do not need processing.


Such a wooden house for a doll is very easy to make with your own hands.

We lay out the sticks in a row and fasten them across with another stick smeared with glue. In this way, walls and ceilings and even a roof are created. It remains only to glue the blanks together. From the same shelves it is easy to make a staircase to the second floor and furniture for the doll.

Bright and unusual wooden crafts come out of colored sticks.

It is better to paint them before making the craft, so you can avoid unpainted places and mixing colors of individual elements. Choose waterproof, odorless paint, take varnished acrylic.

From round ice cream sticks, real masterpieces are obtained, which are no different from the classic log construction. The only difference is the scale. We have to build two floors with a balcony and an entrance hall.

  1. For the base, take a piece of plywood of a suitable size. As a foundation, we use gypsum or foam.
  2. On the foundation, we begin to build a structure, starting from the floor. First of all, we build a frame and lay floor sticks on it. The finished floor should look like this:
  3. in each log we cut out a hollow, which will include the log of the previous row, and so on. From the same sticks we build a frame. It will help not only determine the shape of the future house, but also make the work more even.
  4. Don't forget doors and windows. We insert pre-prepared frame structures and decorate with curtains made with our own hands from a beautiful piece of fabric.
  5. Inside you can hold LED bulbs. Such a wooden lamp will appeal not only to children, but will also become a good gift for friend.

For making crafts the best material than the one created by mother nature herself cannot be found. Pebbles, branches, fruits and vegetables, moss and flowers - this is not the whole list of what you can create original products from. How to make a house from From the information presented in the article, you will learn two ways to make such a product: from twigs and from a pumpkin.

We make a house from natural materials with our own hands. Preparation of materials

We will make the product from tree branches and foliage. In addition to them, you will need the following materials for work: cardboard, a thermal gun or plasticine, a stapler, a piece of plywood. We will supplement the composition with such elements as a path, mushrooms, a tree. For their manufacture, you will need a variety of materials of natural origin: pebbles, moss, chestnuts, cones.

Description of the manufacturing process

Craft-house made of natural materials with your own hands. Such a composition will take its rightful place at any exhibition of similar products.

Pumpkin is a product that is not only eaten. We carry out a hut from this vegetable

For work, prepare the following materials:

  • pumpkin;
  • dry leaves;
  • tops of corn;
  • toothpick;
  • plasticine;
  • Scotch.

How to do It is very simple. First, cut off the top of the vegetable and clean out the seeds. With a toothpick, draw the outlines of the windows and doors. Cut out these pieces with a knife. top put pumpkins in place. Attach dry foliage on top of it with plasticine or tape. The roof is ready. Attach curtains from dry corn tops or leaves to the door and windows. That's all. Now it remains to settle residents in a house made of natural materials, made with their own hands. These can be small toys or figurines of people and animals made of acorns and chestnuts.


Each season in kindergartens and schools begins with the manufacture of crafts. Autumn is no exception. At this time of the year, there are a lot of bright and beautiful things around us. natural material, which can be used to make original items for future crafts. This master class provides a description of how to make a house from natural material with your own hands, photos are attached.

For the manufacture of the house we will use the scheme.


To make house frame materials needed:
1. Thick cardboard (walls) - 4 parts.
2. Scissors.
3. Thin cardboard (connecting partitions) - 4 parts.
4. PVA glue.
5. Simple pencil.

We are engaged in the manufacture of a house

1. First you need to make walls for the future home. To do this, cut out 4 parts from thick cardboard according to the drawing in the diagram. After that, partitions should be made from thin cardboard that will connect the walls. Each partition must be drawn in half (fold line).

2. Each partition along the fold line must be bent in half. It is convenient to do this work with a ruler.

3. We get 4 parts for connecting the walls of the house to each other.


4. We begin to form the frame of the house. To do this, install 2 wall parts on a flat surface. Using a square, check the right angle.

5. We connect the walls with the help of a partition.

6. In order for the partition to stick well to the walls, we fix it with clothespins on both sides.

7. We do the same with the rest of the house.

8. Finally, we connect all the walls together.






10. Using a pruner, we cut the brushwood of the reeds into pieces equal to the size of the walls. Next, glue each stick on the glue.



11. The next step is to prepare the details for the manufacture of the roof.

12. Gables are smeared with glue at the marked distance.



13. We glue the gables on both sides of the house.

14. So that in the future the house could be covered with a roof, we fix the crossbar between the gables.



15. We cover the house with a roof. We fix the edges of the roof with tape.

16. We decorate the roof with fluffy tassels of reeds. To do this, cut the brushes right size and glue them to the roof.


17.
At the final stage, we make a window and a door from cardboard and glue them to the right place.

A finished house made of natural materials, made by hand, looks beautiful and original. It is sure to become a decoration of any holiday and even the interior.

Good afternoon. Today I can finally sum up a large collection of ideas for crafts made from natural materials. We already have a large-format article with crafts from autumn leaves for children and adults. There is a detailed article in the autumn theme. In this article I will publish the most interesting and non-standard tricks and techniques. I decided to do wide overview page, which will prove and show that natural material for creativity is not only acorns and chestnuts. You will see with your own eyes and fall in love with the new fresh ideas work with natural materials. Crafts made with your own hands, from branches, from leaves, from dried flowers, from everything under your feet. Nature is rich in material, and man is rich in beautiful ideas. So, let's see what crafts can be made from natural material this season.

Idea Pack #1

SCALES from cones.

The cones are made up of scales. If you collect open pine cones, then it is convenient to pull out of them with pincers, pliers, or bite SCALES with wire cutters. And then use this bumpy natural material as a mosaic coating on a variety of autumn crafts.

Note. In order for the cones to open well, spread out with scales, they can be warmed up in the oven.

Here we see mushrooms. Their legs are carved from a thick wooden chock. The hats are molded of plasticine and the top of the hats is covered with scales. It turns out cute mushrooms-crafts with their own hands. Suitable job for school.

But the spruce cones have scales flatter and smoother. They look like the smoothed feathers of birds. Therefore, the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bcrafts comes to mind on a bird theme. We sculpt the bird's body from plasticine, we 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 the spruce “tile” of feather-scales.

And also the scales of a spruce 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 - there's a whole beast that looks like it's alive. Great crafts for boys made of natural material.

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

After plucking the cone, a 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 cone - just with hot glue from a gun.

You can cover such cones-flowers with bright gouache. In order for the gouache color to become juicier and shine, it is necessary to sprinkle this product on top after drying with gouache, I recommend spraying it with simple hairspray. The color will stick and won't stain your hands.

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

Flowers from cones can not only be collected into wreath crafts, but simply laid out on a panel. Put on glue on a piece of plywood. You will get an excellent craft made from natural material for a competition in a school or kindergarten.

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

Crafts from natural material

WALNUTS.

From nutshells, we all made boats in childhood, or hats on plasticine mushrooms. But you can go further in your creativity from walnuts. Children will be happy to create mice or birds, and adults skillful hands and a warm soulful heart can create a whole world out of a nutshell... Now you will see it.

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

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

I really like the work of master Marina from the site Fair of Masters. With her own hands she created amazing, in its sincerity and warmth, the world of good old women. Walnuts in the place where the sashes are connected, they are surprisingly similar to a wrinkled smiling old woman. It remains to add eyes, a nose-bone and mentally wrap everything with a cotton handkerchief. And now the cunning old woman looks at you cheerfully.

We make a body from a bump, weave hands from rough paper packaging twine. From felt we dump warm felt boots. Each old woman can be made with her own character. Cheered up with a big smile. Or silent thoughtful, on my mind.

Old women can be both summer and winter.

You can create whole worlds from natural material in which kind old women live and work. They themselves will keep their world clean.

And after work, they will gather for 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 work on the master's personal page - https://www.livemaster.ru/woods. Marina can make you a custom-made craft for your family and friends.

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

Master Marina, I want to give 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 love our Russian book with kind stories about Russian village grandmothers, illustrated by Marina's works.

After all, this is a real miracle, do it yourself from natural material new world- kind, fabulous, REAL. More and more new houses, cozy benches, swings, carts, wagons will appear in it.

FAIRY HOUSES.

if you love fairy tales with fairies and magicians, then you will like the world of fairies from natural material. You can create your own cozy houses for fairies, break up for them the whole housing complexes, with ponds, parks, gardens, swings.

On the school competition crafts made from natural material, you can bring a man-made miracle. The house where the gnome lives. Details can be attached to plasticine, staples (from a stapler), to glue from a hot gun.

Pieces of moss, acorn caps, scales torn from 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 go to the construction of such a complex but interesting crafts. The house will grow and be ennobled by natural design before your eyes.

You can base thick wooden stick found in the forest. Saw off a comfortable piece from it. Buy at a hardware store tinted stain for wood- and cover the tree in a noble dark color. Cut out of thick cardboard windows, cover them with the same stain. From ice cream sticks put together a real door, arrange a porch. Sculpt a conical roof from plasticine. Break a large pine cone with tongs or pliers on scales and lay out tiles from them on the roof of a natural house.

Some elements can be molded salt dough(a glass of fine salt, a glass of flour + water (add water a spoon at a time, and grind with salted flour with your hands until a single lump is formed, similar to plasticine). Roll out the dough - cut into bricks with a knife. Dry - and get a lot building material for a 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.

  1. Take strong cardboard package from milk or juice. Cut windows in it - this will be the future facade of the house.
  2. Buy a small bag gypsum plaster(or putty) diluted with water and coat the facade of the house with this mixture.
  3. Dry and cover with whitewash or white gouache (toothpaste on the edge).
    Make a roof out of cardboard, also apply glue to it and lay tiles from pieces of bark or cones. or chips.

Applications

And of course, the most common crafts made from natural material are applications using dry herbarium - herbs, leaves, flowers. We made everything from leaves of chicks or fish in an aquarium. 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 in the search bar you type the phrase "silhouette of a hare picture" or another animal.

The most important thing in such a craft is to achieve recognition - the clarity of the silhouette. Therefore, you need to choose a silhouette without small parts- protrusions. And if you chose with detailed protrusions, try to make the small relief detail be made with ONE SOLID petal (like the ears of a bunny or its protrusions of the 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 carefully cut with scissors (as is done in the photo above with a cat - it has triangles of ears cut out).

Crafts from branches.

From branches different forms and bends you can lay out with your own hands beautiful crafts. Branches can just decompose on a white paper background, repeating the outlines of a bird or animal. It is possible in advance on paper draw a silhouette of a bird weak pencil lines. And then pick up branches that would lie on this drawn silhouette of a bird, repeating the curves of the picture.

Crafts from natural material can be fix with glue with a hot glue gun. Or make a photo-craft. That is, lay out the branches and take a picture of the craft, thereby perpetuating your product from natural material in the form of a photograph.

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

In addition to branches, you can use wood chips, pieces of bark, chips and saw cuts from logs, chocks, thick branches in your crafts. This is how crafts-owls from the photo below are implemented. Simply and interestingly made with your own hands - you can safely carry it to the exhibition autumn crafts to school or kindergarten.

The same idea can be realized from different angles and different material. Here, for example, in the photo of horse crafts made from natural material, both branches and bark, and snags 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 pattern details. Spread the branches in the same directions as the fur pile of the animal, or repeat the muscular relief of the animal with branches.

Maybe this species handicrafts made from natural material will captivate you so much that turn into a solid hobby with the prospects of monetization in profitable business. Why not make beautiful wooden sculptures for a summer residence or estate for sale.

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

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

Maple and ash seeds.

Dry lobed tree seeds can be very interesting to beat in a variety of do-it-yourself crafts.

You can make a mosaic craft out of this natural material in the form 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 paint well with watercolor, so your butterfly craft can be in all 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 a hairstyle on a painted human head, they can become a fluffy squirrel tail, feathers on the wings of an owl, or 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 beetles. For example, string beads on a wire (this will be the body) and glue seeds to the body on glue or plasticine. Wings can be painted with nail polish and sprinkled with glitter glitter. The bulging eyes of a dragonfly can be cast from frozen drops of the same nail polish. You will get a beautiful quick and simple craft made from natural material for children.

And the same maple natural material can become the basis for fun GRAPHIC CRAFTS-DRAWING with an ordinary black marker. We paint on the missing details for 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."

I told more about this GRAPHIC method of using natural material in the article.

Crafts from natural material

STONES.

A simple rubble stone left over from dacha construction, or smooth river, sea stones can become the material for your natural do-it-yourself crafts. The stone itself can tell by its shape who it looks like. And you just have to take felt-tip pens or gouache to bring this image to life.

If you feel like an artist in yourself - you can make complex multi-line drawings - as is the case with the stone owl craft. Or smooth thick pebbles can look like clumsy chubby panda bears - and such crafts 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 on it the black details of the teddy bear.

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

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

From dry grass and wire or other natural material, you can make a nest. And in this craft, put the chicks made of stones with your own hands. Older children can decorate a complex picture with a chick and an open beak. For younger children, the task is easier in the form of chickens in shells.

On a piece of plywood or a round saw cut from a log, you can lay out a whole picture of stones and other natural materials decorated with paints. This craft is suitable for work on the autumn competition in school or kindergarten.

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

You can use the mosaic technique to lay out a variety of characters from stones. Attach the stones to the glue with 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 of natural material (sea pebbles, glass turned by water, shells, etc.).
