Mushroom made of wood with your own hands. Paper mushroom: easy craft for kids. Crafts with children. Mushroom-fly agaric, made using the technique of trimming. Master class with step by step photos

Autumn is a wonderful time for the implementation of any creative ideas. I suggest you try your hand at working with corrugated paper. Bright and varied crafts and compositions are obtained from this type of paper. Working with these materials is quite simple, and the result will exceed all your expectations! Quite original products are obtained when working with corrugated paper using the "trimming" technique. If you know how to cut and paste, then this technique will not present any difficulties for you. Let's make multi-colored mushrooms from improvised means, decorating them using the "trimming" technique.

For work, you should prepare:

1. Corrugated or crepe paper in brown, red, white, green, yellow;
2. Glue - pencil;
3. White cardboard;
4. Cardboard Brown color;
5. Roll of foil;
6. DVD disc;
7. Scissors;
8. Stationery knife;
9. Compass;
10. Simple pencil;
11. Ruler;
12. Rod for ballpoint pen.

The basis for future crafts will be an unnecessary CD, DVD disc or a plastic round shape in the form of a disc. To close the hole in the middle of the disk, we take brown cardboard, turn it over to the non-colored side, put the disk on it and trace it along the contour.

Cut out the resulting circle


and stick it to the disk.


The future meadow for mushrooms - it is also the basis for crafts - is ready.

Now let's start making the actual mushrooms. We plan to make 3 different mushrooms, so we take a roll of foil and cut off 3 parts of different lengths from it with a clerical knife.

Parts of the roll will serve as the legs of the mushrooms. But in order to make hats for mushrooms, you need to take a sheet of cardboard and, using a compass or other round object at hand, draw a circle,

cut it, and make a slot in it to the middle.


Now we bend one part of the circle under the other to make a cone, and glue the ends.
This is how the hat should look like.


For three mushrooms, you need to glue three hats, respectively.
Well, now we glue the hat on the leg of the mushroom.


Here are all three mushrooms and ready,

now we need to "decorate" them. We will decorate, mainly, mushroom hats with the help of corrugated paper or crepe paper, using the "end-to-end" technique. This technique is very exciting, and at the same time simple, the decoration of hats can be trusted little child. From a sheet of corrugated paper, cut strips 1 cm wide.

We collect the strips into one and cut them into squares measuring 1cm * 1cm. Making squares
from paper of brown, red, green, white and yellow colors.


Now we need a ballpoint pen. We put one colored square on the finger of one hand,


and with the other hand we wind it onto the rod.


The resulting "end face" is lightly smeared with glue-pencil


and glue it to the mushroom cap.


Now we take out the rod from the "end trim", and this is what should happen.


We glue the "end faces" close to each other, gradually filling the entire surface of the cap with them.






Finally, the hat is completely glued. Now we glue the finished hat to the leg - we get the first mushroom.


We will decorate the hat of the second mushroom a little differently. Inside the cap along the edge we glue the “end faces” of light yellow color.




Here is such a mushroom turned out.

We decided to make the third mushroom special - bright, noticeable, but, unfortunately, poisonous - fly agaric mushroom. To decorate his hat, we will use squares of corrugated paper in red and white colors. First, we glue in several places the caps of the "end cap" of white color.

After that, around them we fill the remaining space with red trimmings.




We will also decorate the leg of the fly agaric with white trimmings.
Glue them in one row around the stem of the mushroom. Fly agaric is ready!

Now we glue all three mushrooms to the finished clearing from the disk.


To revive our mushroom clearing, we glue on the lower sections of the legs of the mushrooms
green grass - “end trimmings” made of green corrugated paper.




Also, greens can be glued to the clearing itself.


So our mushroom composition is ready!

Such a clearing will fit very well into the interior of a children's room, or it can be used as a do-it-yourself craft for school or for kindergarten. Good luck and new creative ideas!

Good afternoon, today I have prepared an article that will tell you the most best ideas for children's crafts with mushrooms. Here you will find beautiful applications, voluminous mushroom meadows, templates for children's crafts mushroom from colored paper. With our own hands we will make mushrooms and fly agarics in the form autumn application using natural materials. Lay out the mushrooms like a mosaic of torn paper. Create bulk applications from cereals in the form of mushrooms. And also we will do voluminous crafts from papier-mache in the form of mushrooms.

craft mushroom

from plasticine.

The very first plasticine crafts are usually mushrooms. Most often, children sculpt a cylindrical sausage and roll a ball, which is slightly flattened into a plump flat cake.

Favorite baby mushroom- fly agaric. He is so beautiful. Even if it's poisonous. But important and necessary - moose are treated with them when they are sick.

AT senior group kindergarten you make various additions to the plasticine mushroom. Make plasticine grass around the leg. Separate thin plasticine green sausages. Or with a common ribbon - we flatten a narrow sausage, cut it into a fringe - wrap it around the stem of the mushroom (as was done in the master class in the photo below).

To make the lesson in kindergarten more fun, you can offer those children who managed to make a LANGUAGE AND BIG EYES at the mushroom (as in the fly agaric crafts from the photo below).

Later, you can teach how to make a two-layer fly agaric hat. First, we sculpt a fly agaric leg from white plasticine. Then we wrap a white long narrow sausage around the leg - like a thick strap. And then we flatten it with our fingers around the entire circle - we get a white skirt on the leg of a fly agaric.

We make a TWO-LAYER hat at the fly agaric mushroom.

We take 2 identical pieces of plasticine - white and red.

Divide the white piece into two parts - roll two balls. The first white ball is spitting into the mold. The second one is round. We put a round ball on the center of the white cake (this ball will give the desired bulge on the mushroom cap).

From the whole red piece we roll the ball and flatten it into a large round cake (it will be larger in size than our white mushroom cake). We cover our white cake with a ball in the center with this red cake. The red cake wraps around the ball - a typical hat shape with a slide in the center is obtained. It remains to add spots. And with a stack, scribble patterns-lines on the lower white part of the hat.

Plasticine

mushroom house.

If every child brings a jar of baby food- you can make plasticine crafts at home in the senior group of the kindergarten. Coat the walls of the jar with white plasticine - heated in hot water. We soak a piece and it becomes liquid-soft, it is easy to work with such plasticine - and it does not stick to wet hands so much. We make a door and a window in the house. We cover the lid of the jar with red plasticine - with white circles-flat cakes. If there is time left, you can decorate the house with a pattern of flower vines.

Inside the house, you can put an LED flashlight, a luminous toy - and the house will glow from the inside.

Plasticine flat applications on the theme of a mushroom look very nice. You can work in the technique of a smear ( small ball flatten and spread with fingers).

You can work using the PLAST technique - we roll out a piece of plasticine ivy into a cake with a rolling pin (a smooth bottle of hairspray, etc.) and cut out the silhouette needed for the application from the layer - this is how the silhouettes of mushrooms are cut out in the photo of the craft below.

Simple Applications

with mushrooms

for kindergarten.

The most common mushroom crafts in kindergarten are colored paper applications. Silhouettes are cut out with scissors and pasted into a common craft picture. Older children - from 5 years old can cut out the details of the application with their own hands. And for the kids junior group all elements of the application are cut out by the educator.

You can also make hand-made lanterns in the shape of a mushroom out of cardboard and colored paper. Cut out two cardboard mushroom silhouettes. In the center of each of them we cut a hole, which we close with transparent tracing paper or an office file.

Glue the BOARDS of the BOX between the cardboard walls and put a candle inside or put a white LED garland New Year's. It turns out a cozy night lamp in the children's room, made by hand.

The sides of the inner box look like a LONG RECTANGLE - its long edges are bent and with this bent side they are glued to the mushroom-shaped walls.

You can consider the layout of such a flashlight in more detail using the example of a similar craft-lamp but in the shape of an apple in our article.

Application + drawing

Mushroom in the craft.

Often integrated classes are held in kindergarten - where 2 types of activities are combined - drawing and appliqué at the same time.

When making mushroom crafts, you can also use paints and colored paper. For example, give children a white hat cut out of cardboard. And the task of the children themselves is to paint it red and draw spots of fly agaric with white gouache (as in the mushroom photo below).

It is possible, as in the photo with the mushroom craft below, to combine the FINGER drawing technique and the CUT APPLICATION technique. Draw a mushroom cap with fingerprints. And fill in the rest of the pieces with scraps of colored paper. The children are given paper already torn into long narrow strips, the child plucks the strip into small pieces with his fingers - and puts them on the crafts smeared with glue.

You can draw the whole mushroom with paints - like fly agaric mushrooms on the craft below and add to them only the OPENWORK SKIRT on the mushroom leg. The skirt can be cut from paper napkin with a pattern (as in the photo below), or a skirt with a pattern can be obtained if you cut a snowflake out of paper - and then cut it into halves-sectors - from one snowflake you will get many skirts for mushrooms at once.

Such a craft can be done on a regular background of colored paper, from sponge-painted white landscape paper.

And you can make a beautiful autumn background from the prints of dry leaves. Cover the leaves with paint and print on a landscape sheet. Such a lesson can be divided into 2 parts - 1 lesson to make prints, in the 2nd lesson to stick an application with a mushroom.

Mushroom skirts can be obtained by cutting paper cupcake molds with scissors (as done in the fly agaric mushroom craft below). By adding waste material, non-standard tricks you can get a new one interesting craft with your own hands.

You can make drawing crafts-applications with a secret. We draw the leg of the mushroom with paints. And the hat comes as a separate piece of cardboard - in which DOORS-INCUTTS have already been made. The child decorates the hat completely, along with the doors. Then he glues the hat on the picture (without smearing the doors with glue) and in place of the opened doors he glues the character - a bug, a snail, a frog, a gnome - the one who lives in the mushroom.

The door on the mushroom can be anywhere. Below, for example, as on this fabric craft from the photo below. Here we see a page from a developing book for the youngest children, made by mother's hands.

Crafts Mushrooms

with autumn leaves.

You can also add natural material to your Mushroom application - autumn dry leaves, maple seeds, dried flowers, pieces of bark or moss.

Folding craft mushrooms

In the technique of origami.

You can fold mushrooms from a paper accordion. We fold a long strip of paper into folds - like a fan. We make folds along the long side of the strip. We get a long narrow fan. We bend it in half - and push it apart like a skirt in both directions - we glue the place where the blades of the two halves of the fan met.

It turns out a mushroom cap. Here in the photo below we see a children's application made according to this principle.

If in the place where we bent the fan to thread a rope, then this can be a craft-pendant. She can decorate the window in autumn style. Or hang it on the Christmas tree.

There is also a way to make an accordion-spring from long narrow strips of paper. Such an accordion-spring can become a leg for a mushroom. We make a hat from a paper round, which was cut along one radius - from the edge to the center, a cut with scissors. And the edges of this incision were superimposed on each other - overlapped and glued together - a neat cone in the shape of a hat turned out.

You can make a paddle application in the shape of a mushroom. it simple craft is made from several silhouettes of a mushroom. Silhouettes have the same shape. They all fold in half lengthwise - like little books. And they come together - sticking together with side blades.

And you can also make such a mushroom craft with your own hands (photo below). The square of paper is folded into arrow-folds. And randomly fit on a piece of paper. The silhouette of a mushroom is drawn on the reverse side of the sheet. After the whole silhouette is closed with folded pieces, we take scissors and cut out the silhouette. We get an interesting embossed mushroom application - as in the photo below.

Breakaway application

on the topic MUSHROOM

for kindergarten.

All children love to make cutaway appliqués. If you are working with older children- then they can be given whole sheets of colored paper and they themselves will do it according to the technique - first the sheet is torn by hand into long narrow strips, then each strip is shredded into pieces.

When working with middle group kindergarten, you can give strips cut with scissors - and their task is to stuff long strips into pieces. Since at this age the ability to use scissors is being developed - and this is the most feasible exercise for chik-chik.

For younger children we give the garden group ready-made long strips of paper and they themselves tear off small pieces. And they also need to give part of the topping in a ready-made form.

This is what a broken application of a mushroom looks like - from scraps of paper.

This is what a rifled mushroom craft looks like - from paper pieces cut into pieces.

Bulk application

Mushroom craft.

Children also love to work with cereals and other bulk natural materials. Below you see a children's craft, where the mushroom is made from three types of cereals. The leg is rice grains, the upper part of the cap is buckwheat, and the lower part of the cap is small barley groats. It turned out to be a very realistic piece. A little lower in this article - I will give a READY TEMPLATE for this application in kindergarten.

You can make a combined Mushroom craft - where a breakaway application, bulk material and a dry herbarium will participate.

Below in the photo of the application with a mushroom, we just see a similar children's work. The stem of the mushroom is made in a broken technique, the hat is a filling of ground dry leaves (or tea leaves). And a dry leaf from a herbarium is decorated with a fungus.

bottom crafts you can decorate with forest moss. First, the moss must be dried on a battery in a group, and then it is well attached to plasticine.

Templates

for break and bulk

mushroom applications.

Here are ready-made silhouette templates for mushroom crafts in kindergarten classes. Pictures can be copied onto a regular Word sheet - stretched with the mouse to the size you need and put on print.

And here are a couple of smart coloring pages from the Hide and Seek series. If you correctly decorate the element of leaves and mushrooms, then it will be clearly clear what exactly is drawn here. It is important not to confuse a mushroom with a leaf and decorate everything correctly.

Also copy the picture onto a Word sheet - stretch it to the desired size - and print it on a printer.

DIY mushrooms

In the technique of QUILLING.

Using the paper twisting technique, you can also make beautiful mushroom crafts. They look very dressy.

You can make the simplest quilling shapes with your own hands. Just tight windings of narrow strips of colored paper. Give the twists an oval shape of the legs and a rounded shape of the mushroom cap. And you get a neat miniature craft.

You can make more complex forms, consisting of several modules. Older children will cope with this task. It requires painstaking perseverance and unhurried accuracy.

You can make voluminous modules from paper rolls - by pulling the paper roll into a cylinder - and then you will get a 3D mushroom craft.

DIY mushrooms

in origami technique.

From a square of colored paper in 20 seconds you can fold an origami module. There are many, many such modules. And with your own hands, assemble a three-dimensional mushroom out of them as if from a constructor.

With children of primary school age, you can do complex crafts in the classroom at school - mushrooms using the origami assembly technique.

Below I post step by step master class to create such crafts mushroom fly agaric. In the same technique, you can make mushrooms with brown hats (for beauty, you can glue an autumn leaf on it at the top, and a piece of dry moss at the bottom).

Mushroom based

Cardboard roll.

But crafts where the leg of the mushroom is made from a roll of toilet paper.

The hat of such a mushroom is made in the form of a pocket - that is, two contours of the hat are cut out and glued to each other AT THE EDGES. The center remains unglued and can be opened like a pocket - and put on a roll with this pocket.

Below we see different option crafts in this technique.

You can make mushroom caps from the bottoms of plastic bottles. Cut, paint with red gouache and here's a fun craft for children in the shape of mushrooms.

You can make rolls yourself out of cardboard. The size you need. For example, they are small so that they fit in size to the mushroom caps made from their halves of the shell. walnut(as in the photo below).

craft mushroom

In the technique of PAPIER-MACHE.

I already gave detailed master class how to quickly and easily make dough for papier-mâché modeling from an egg carton soaked in boiling water.

Fashioned mushrooms in this technique look like real ones. They are hard and difficult to break or tear. Children can play with them.

First, from papier-mâché (paper dough), we sculpt such mushrooms. Then we dry them and decorate them with a special composition.

Very detailed step by step tutorial on the manufacture of such paper pulp using boiling water and egg cassettes, I published in an article where we made APPLES according to this recipe, they also looked like they were alive. Here is a link to this lesson

DIY mushrooms

from felt and felt.

In the lessons of the initial basics of sewing in the lower grades, you can make simple flat crafts-mushrooms from felt.

You can sew mushrooms from ordinary fabric. Which was found in your house - chintz, plush, cotton.

And if you are fond of felting, then you can make fluffy felt mushroom crafts. Like in the photo below.

We buy wool for felting. Pour into a bowl warm water. Add to it liquid soap. Dip a piece of wool into the soapy water and start sculpt it with your hands under water, we sculpt the shape we need from plasticine. We roll it in our hands, iron it - from warm water and friction of the hands, the felt easily gets into a tight lump under water - the shape we need. We take out and dry. It turns out a detail - a hat or a leg. What they molded is what they got. Working with felt is a pleasure - things turn out very quickly and simply.

You can not sculpt the felt under water - but comb it with a felting needle. This fly agaric appliqué is made of felt felting with a needle inside a frame bounded by a zipper.

We cut off the usual metal zipper with scissors next to the cloves. We sew this gear tape onto a piece of fabric (a thin layer of felt or felt).

Now we put a red thread inside this frame and comb it with a needle. Add pieces of white felt and comb the spot inside the red background.

From felt material can be made voluminous crafts. Whole meadows with mushrooms.

Here are some simple and quick ideas for children's crafts on the topic of Mushrooms.

Now you can choose a convenient mushroom craft for the age of your children and for the purpose of training with them.

Good luck with your work.

Olga Klishevskaya, specially for the site

Dear friends, we invite you to make your garden plots even more attractive. If you like to create interesting products, then this article is made for you. Today we will talk about how you can make mushrooms with your own hands. It is worth saying that this craft is very simple in its execution. And landscape design thanks to such products will become even more beautiful.

Ideas for mushrooms to give

But now it's time to show you craft mushrooms for summer cottages. There are several options for creating them. So, the first option for creating a mushroom is the simplest. Surely, on your site there are stumps that were left after you cut down the trees. So, hats are worth adding to such stumps. Basins can be these hats. Of course, they must have the same size as the penalty. Additionally, stumps can be decorated with bright colors. And if there are no such stumps on the site, then use the log cabins, which are placed in those places that require decoration.

Mushrooms can be created from other handy materials. In this case, pots and pieces of pipes will fit. Such materials can be searched in your attic or in the barn.

Another option for creating mushrooms is concrete mushrooms. This option is difficult. To create such a work of art: you need to prepare a solution that will contain sand and cement. You will also need forms in order to make these mushrooms. It's not worth buying them. For example, to create a hat, use a basin. You can also use half a ball or a construction helmet. In order to make a leg, use a plastic bottle. And with the help of a metal pipe, you can connect the hat together with the leg.

Mushrooms can be decorated, and not left in their original form. For example, a hat can be laid out with mosaics or pebbles.

The third option for creating a mushroom is its creation from polyurethane foam. Garden crafts are often used to create country crafts. For such a fungus, a base is required. However, to create mushrooms, you will need all the same elements: a bowl and plastic bottle. Although the form in this case does not play a significant role. In order to get a mushroom, you will have to use more than one layer of polyurethane foam.

There should be a lot of foam layers. But before applying the next layer, it is necessary to allow the previous layer to dry well. Then, with the help of a clerical knife, the already dried foam should be formed into a mushroom. And at the final stage, the bend is primed and painted.

Option four is a mushroom craft made of wood. In this article, we list mushroom crafts for you and offer their photos. As you can see, you can easily make them yourself. With a little effort, a piece of wood or an ordinary log will become a beautiful craft. To process a wooden surface you will need: a grinder and a chainsaw. Nor does it require skill. But if you do not work hard, you get an unusual product.

DIY mushroom crafts

Fungus.

Now you know how to make a mushroom with your own hands. But the mushroom craft for the home also looks interesting. And you can involve children in its creation. To make such a mushroom, take:

• Scissors, PVA glue;
• Popsicle stick, as well as colored paper.

Progress:

• From a red sheet of paper it is worth folding an accordion. Each step in this case should have a size of 5 mm.
• The top is cut off from the top of the accordion. As a result, you should get a dome.
• The leaf is straightened and the stick is glued to its reverse side.
• The piece is flipped. Circles are cut out of white paper. These circles are glued to the cap of the fungus.
• To make the fungus funny, you need to cut out eyes for it. Then a mouth is cut out of red paper.

Mushroom from a plastic plate.

Children's crafts mushrooms also look interesting. The materials here may be as follows:

• Disposable paper plate and cardboard sheet.
• PVA glue, brushes and paints, cotton wool and a clothespin.

Progress:

1. From the plate it is worth making a small fold. In this case, it is worth giving it a slightly convex shape.
2. The fold is smeared with glue. Then it is fixed with a clothespin and wait until the plate is dry.
3. Make a roll out of cardboard, which will be the leg of the mushroom. The glue should dry on a plate and on a roll.
4. The plate is painted with red paint.
5. Now it’s worth tearing the cotton wool into pieces of different sizes and sticking it on a plate that has not yet had time to dry. As a result, you will get a hat that will resemble a fly agaric with all its appearance.
6. At the next stage, a cardboard roll is painted. Then the top of the roll is smeared with glue and glued to the plate.
7. Now the fungus just needs to dry.

Clothespin-mushroom.

The next craft is not only a decorative element. Turns out it can be useful. For example, from such fungi you can make a garland and attach photographs to them. So, to make it, take:

• wooden clothespins,
• glue gun,
• white beads,
• white fleece,
• thick rope.

Progress:

1. A figurine is cut out of the fabric, which in its shape will look like a mushroom cap.
2. Mushroom caps are decorated with white dots. You can glue beads or cut circles out of fabric.
3. Finished hats are glued to the part of the clothespin that everyone is holding on to open it.
4. Pass the thread through the holes in the clothespins.
5. The bows are tied at the ends of the thread.

Plasticine mushroom.

If you decide to make a mushroom craft, then use plasticine. This craft is a great option for competitive crafts in kindergarten.

To make a mushroom, plasticine is taken and softened in the hands. Then the plasticine is rolled into a tube. Further, a ring is cut off from the material with a knife, which will be 1 centimeter. This circle is rolled into a pancake. A little more plasticine is cut off from the tube. Roll up the leg, which is further attached to the hat. In order for the craft to look finished, you need to make grooves on the inside of the pancake.

Glass mushroom.

DIY mushroom craft for kindergarten looks bright and original. To make it, take:

• Glass jar with a lid of any size.
• Felt fabric in different colors.
• PVA glue or cool gun.
• A synthetic winterizer or cotton wool, paints and a brush, as well as scissors.

Progress:

1. The jar itself is painted in beige or white.
2. The bank is wrapped with a green cloth from below. Blades of grass are cut out on one side of the felt. After that, the grass is also glued around the jar.
3. A red fabric is laid on top of the lid. A synthetic winterizer comes up under it in order to form a tubercle, like a fungus. It is worth making sure that the edges of the felt fabric are wrapped under the lid.
4. From felt different colors figures are cut out. They may look like flowers.
5. It is worth cutting out a few more circles that will serve as cores for the flowers.
6. Strips are cut out of green felt, which should be thin. These are blades of grass.
7. To make a caterpillar, circles of different colors are cut out of the fabric.
8. At the next stage, all the elements are glued to the bank.

How to make mushrooms from natural material.

In our article you can see a photo of mushroom crafts. Indeed, we have prepared a lot of interesting things for you. In addition to all those products that we offered you to make mushrooms, you can make them from natural materials, which you can meet very, very much in the fall. In order to build mushrooms, you need: chestnuts and acorns. They are connected to each other by means of a cool gun.

Progress:

1. The acorns are separated from the caps.
2. And in place of the hat, a chestnut is glued in the middle.
3. In order for your fungi to gain stability, attach the back of an acorn cap to them. The resulting mushrooms are installed on a plate or plank. And they scatter straw around them.

Finally

As you can see, there are a lot of mushroom crafts that you can simply make yourself. Just turn on your imagination and stock up on what you need. Involve the kids in this activity and create wonderful products with them.

Mushrooms are often used as a site decoration. But purchased mushrooms are expensive, and besides, it is not always possible to find exactly what you would like to see in your garden on sale. Let's try to make them ourselves.

Garden Mushroom Materials

You will need:

• Cement;
• Sand;
• Dense nylon stockings - two pieces for one mushroom;
• Primer facade or universal;
• Facade paint, concrete paint or acrylic paint.

More about the solution from which we will “pour out” the mushroom. To prepare it, in a container (an old basin, for example), we mix three parts of sand with one part of cement. Add water, stirring the mass to get a homogeneous, similar to a thick cream. You can add a plasticizer for concrete (sold at a hardware store) - this reduces the risk of cracks on the surface of the garden craft. But if small cracks appear when the cement fungus dries, they just need to be covered with a small amount of fresh mortar.

How to make a mushroom for the garden - step by step

Once the solution is ready, put it in kapron stocking part sufficient to form the stem.

Immediately put part of the solution for the mushroom cap into the second stocking.

We hang stockings with cement on some kind of rail, pipe, crossbar.

By the same principle, cement pumpkins can also be made, only we drag them crosswise with twine.

Now comes the fun part - we need to form a leg and a hat. We put a jar under the stocking with a future hat so that the solution is not completely suspended, but rather blurs a little. We tie the stocking above the solution. We lay a plastic film between the solution and the jar so that after hardening the jar can be easily removed.

Under the stocking, in which the leg of the mushroom freezes, we also put a jar to form a flat surface (cut) of the leg.

We leave the elements of our future decoration for the garden to harden. But not for too long - if the cement mortar hardens completely, it will be difficult to fasten the details of the craft.

We take out the parts from the stockings, insert some metal pin into the middle of the leg (you can use a long nail), put a hat on it.

If you miss the time, and the solution is too dry, you will have to fasten the fungus in another way. You can drill holes in the details with a drill and fix the pin in them with fresh mortar. If the cap and the cut of the legs are large, you can also glue them with building glue or the same solution.

It will not work to remove the stockings from the hardened cement, leave them in place, and apply a small layer of mortar to the dried craft to hide the material.

It will dry, depending on the size, from three days. After that, it can and should be sanded with sandpaper to remove irregularities.

Making crafts is not only an exciting activity for children and adults, but also allows kids to learn the simplest manipulations with natural and artificial materials, to show their imagination and originality of thinking.

It will not cause any particular difficulties in creating attractive mushrooms at home. And what ideas you can use, we will tell in our article.

Plasticine: a combination of simplicity and originality

This fungus is easy to make. It is enough to roll out a cylinder-sausage for a leg from light plasticine and roll a ball of brown or red plasticine under a future hat.

The leg should not be too long - a thickening is needed from below for a more durable attachment. Below you can make grass. To do this, take the green mass, roll it into a sausage, and then flatten it. Using a knife, a fringe is cut out, which is then wrapped around the stem at its base.

Closer to the hat, you can make a skirt. To do this, a white plasticine sausage is wrapped around the leg, fixed and slightly flattened, as can be seen in the photo of the mushroom.

A hat with grooves will look original. The rolled pancake for the hat is turned over. On the inside, with a toothpick, grooves are made from the center.

To make a double hat, it is enough to roll two balls from white plasticine. One of them is flattened into a cake, which is fixed on the leg. A white ball is placed on top of the pancake. A red plasticine pancake is placed on top of the ball and smoothly flows around it, connecting with the white lining.

Plasticine can also be used as a connecting element - a plasticine ball is placed on a vertically fixed acorn, and a chestnut hat is attached on top.

Foam product

With the participation of parents, you can make an original composition from the material used for wall insulation. And will help you simple instruction how to make a mushroom A leg and a hat are cut out of two pieces of foam plastic with a clerical knife. The surface is neatly levelled.

On the inside of the cap in the center, a recess is made for docking. A little glue is poured into this hole to attach the ceiling tiles. The leg is placed inside.

You can color the craft with gouache. For better adhesion, PVA is added to it. The leg is painted in a light color, and the hat is painted in a darker color, such as red or brown.

After the paint has completely dried, the surface can be covered with ghost nail polish. It's important that you don't skip the paint application.

Several mushrooms can be installed in a shoe cover. It is pre-laid with the material used when wrapping flowers as a substrate. The composition can be diversified with natural samples - dry twigs, leaves, cones.

Dough mushrooms

To work, you need to prepare the dough. You will need half a glass of finely ground salt. Pour into a glass with salt hot water and the whole mass is kept in this form for an hour. After that, the solution should be poured into a bowl and add 2 tbsp. PVA glue for fastening strength, as well as flour. From a novice master, you will need to knead a thick dough.

The stem of the mushroom must be formed around the base in the form of a foil rod. The hat can also be wrapped around the foil, or you can sculpt without it. To fix on the leg, the attachment points should be treated with water. A molded craft mushroom made from salt dough is sent to the oven and dried over low heat for 10-13 hours.

If the composition is very large, then the leg is first dried for an hour and the hat is separately, which must be fixed on a support in the subsequent hot. After bonding, the entire structure is sent to the oven. It is recommended to dry the extracted mushroom naturally, for example, on the balcony.

The final step is coloring. In addition to the mushroom, you can mold other figures or decorate the composition with natural materials.

We use vegetables and fruits

As a basis for the composition, you can use an ordinary box, a board or a sheet of cardboard. Leaves or greens are laid on it. For crafts in the form of a mushroom, several carrots are taken from vegetables, which will act as legs.

Hats can be made from halves of potatoes or apples. It is advisable to fasten the workpieces together with the help of matches or toothpicks.

paper mushrooms

Craft paper mushroom at home can be made using different technologies. For example, the following sequence of actions is popular:

• take a sheet of colored paper and assemble it with an accordion in increments of 5-7 mm;
• then the structure is straightened and the top is cut off so that the dome of the cap is obtained;
• the reverse side of the cap is glued to the ice cream stick;
• you can attach white circles to the hat, and decorate the wand with a perky muzzle.

An interesting model will turn out from a disposable paper plate. Our master class on how to make mushroom crafts on your own will help you. A fold is made on the plate and a slightly convex shape is formed.

The fold must be treated with glue and clamped with a clothespin. To make the legs, roll a sheet of cardboard into a cylinder and glue its edges. A toilet paper roll can also be an alternative.

The hat is painted red, and white paper circles or cotton flakes are attached on top of it. The cylinder leg can be wrapped in colored paper or painted in the chosen color. The hat and knife are glued together with glue, and then left to dry.

Mushroom compositions made using the quilling technique look original. The components are made in the form of tight twists of thin strips of colored paper. But if the hat is round, then the support should be given an oval appearance.

Sometimes the twist is pulled into a cylinder or into a dome. The result is interesting 3D compositions. original ideas for do-it-yourself crafts, you can offer children who own the origami technique. Of course, it will take a little more time, but the result will justify the labor costs.

Mushroom crafts can be made from a variety of materials. Along with the options discussed above, more complex models are created from papier-mâché, felt and felt, etc. Your joint work with the child will be exciting and interesting for all participants in the process.
