An armful of warmth in your hands: amazing ideas on how to create an autumn bridal bouquet. DIY autumn crafts

Autumn gives us a lot of materials for creativity. These include leaves of various colors, chestnuts, dried flowers, acorns, and a decorative miniature pumpkin.

But, before you start making souvenirs from them, you need to properly prepare them, namely dry them and, if necessary, coat them with varnish or paint.

If you make a craft from unprepared raw materials, it will be a short-lived product.

As soon as the material dries on its own, the souvenir will lose its shape and will have to be thrown away. And besides this, half-raw leaves can simply rot or become moldy.

So let's start by drying out our autumn finds.

Let's prepare the leaves for the herbarium as follows:

1 way:

Place them between the book sheets and place them back on the shelf, pressing them tightly with other books to the side. In about a week to a week and a half, the leaves will be suitable for crafts.

This method is the best because natural color leaves do not change and then they for a long time don't break.

Method 2:

This method is good if you don’t have the strength to withstand a week and a half and want to get to work quickly. Place the sheet between two white sheets of paper and iron with an iron set to the lowest setting.

In this case, the yellow and red leaves retain their color, but the green ones may darken and become an ugly, brown shade.

We dry chestnuts, acorns and decorative pumpkins.

1 way:

Dry on outdoors, in the shadow. It will be necessary to wait quite a long time before these materials acquire the dryness we need.

Sometimes this process takes a month. Especially it concerns decorative pumpkins, which make wonderful DIY autumn crafts.

You will see for yourself when the moment of readiness for the gifts of autumn comes. Acorns and chestnuts will become lighter, and the pumpkin will become like a rattle, as the cavity inside will dry out and shrink, and dry seeds will beat against the walls.

Method 2:

We use the oven for this. It needs to be set at a temperature of up to 60C and dried until tender, stirring occasionally.

The main thing is not to rush and do not put on high heat, as the fruits will simply cook and become completely unusable.

Drying dried flowers

There is only one way and it takes a long time. Flowers need to be strung on a thread threaded through the stems and hung in a dry place, with the flower stems facing down.

Drying in a book or with an iron will not work, as the shape will be lost and they will become flat. After the dried flowers are completely dry, they must be covered with a layer of hairspray. He will give them required density and will not allow it to crumble at the slightest touch.

Well, now, let's move on to specific master classes and examples.

1. Panel of autumn leaves

We are offering to you great idea DIY leaf panel. It’s not at all difficult to make, but the result is quite impressive.

It would be nice if you placed other autumn decorative elements next to the finished leaf painting. For example, pumpkins, spikelets and other things that suit the style. Then you will have a whole autumn ensemble.

What we need for work:

1. 1. Dried maple leaves of yellow-red color.
2. 2. Tree branch for the trunk
3. 3. A square piece of plywood
4. 4. Stain or dark varnish
5. 5. Simple pencil
6. 6. PVA glue
7. 7. A bunch of dry spikelets
8. 8. Wicker basket for pumpkins
9. 9. Several Jack Be Little or Baby Boo pumpkins

If you don’t have such pumpkins, you can fill the basket with chestnuts and acorns. But on next year It wouldn’t hurt to grow them, as they look very colorful and festive. Of course, if you have a plot of land.

Look at the variety of varieties and how harmoniously they combine with each other:

Master class step by step:

1 step. Sand the board, focusing Special attention

edges. They should be smooth.

Step 2. Cover it with stain or varnish, preferably with a brownish tint. Apply the coating in several layers, trying to make the board not a uniform color, but a slightly “spotty” one..

Step 4

Start gluing on the maple leaves. Start from the edges, gradually approaching the middle. The edges of the leaves should match the edges of the sketch as best as possible. The next row of leaves should overlap the previous one. Do not glue the ends, they must be “overhanging” to create a volume effect.

Step 5 Glue the selected twig in place of the stem. Now hang it up

autumn panel

, created with your own hands, over a cabinet and place other decorative elements around it. 2. Topiary from herbarium and other autumn materials Topiary is a decorative tree. In autumn you can collect

beautiful leaves and make such a wonderful and cozy decorative element. Any leaves, dried flowers, acorns, spikelets will be used here. The main thing is to understand the essence and do it

What we need for work:

1. the right basis
2. . And what to fill it with - your imagination will tell you.
3. 1. Ceramic pot of a dull color
4. 2. A straight tree branch for the trunk
5. 3. 1 ball made of foam rubber, polystyrene foam or special floral foam
6. 4. Dry moss, sesame or a handful of beautiful pebbles, acorns, dry rowan
7. 5. Glue gun

6. Dry plaster

7. Decorative elements: herbarium, dried flowers, rowan, acorns, etc. Master class step by step: 1 step. Let's start with the basics. Take

foam ball

and put it on a branch that will serve as your trunk. Then remove it and drop some glue from the gun into the hole formed. Reattach the ball and let it dry.

Step 2.

Secure the trunk in the pot. To do this, drop a drop of glue onto the free edge of the branch and attach it to the base of the pot.

Then, dilute the plaster with water to the consistency of liquid sour cream and fill the container. Don't forget that you will still need to decorate everything on top with moss or acorns, so leave a gap of about 3-4 cm from the top.

Step 3. Now we insert leaves and dried flowers into the ball, sticking them with their stems inside. If you want to add acorns to the composition, then first place them on pieces of wire.

Step 4 Now all you have to do is decorate the top of the pot so that the plaster is not visible. That's all. Using this simple scheme, you can make a wide variety of autumn crafts with your own hands, not only from leaves, but also from dry peas, nuts and so on. They will all look just great! 3. Roses from maple leaves Looking at this!

elegant bouquet

As a result, we should end up with something like this:

Step 2.

Now take the second sheet, fold it in half again and wrap it around the base.

The sharp edges of the maple leaves should be carefully hidden inside, like this:

Step 3. We continue to build up the mass around the base, adding more and more leaves. If you want to end up with a bud, then twist it more tightly, but if you ate a more magnificent rose, then loosen the twist a little.

Step 4 When you see that a real rose has “bloomed” in your hands, you need to secure it with threads as tightly as possible. Step 5

We cut the edges with scissors and place the rose on a lining of leaves, preferably already dry. We cover the composition with varnish and admire it!

Such leaf roses last long enough, for the whole autumn season definitely enough. You can make as many of these flowers as you like. The more there are, the more chic this autumn composition, reminiscent of a fabric motif, looks.

4. Compositions of decorative pumpkins

autumn time You can freely buy them on the market and then dry them yourself. We have already told you how to do this above, so let’s not waste time talking. Let's get creative!

There will be no master classes in this block, we will simply show you examples of such decor, and how to make them is already quite clear from the photo.

Of course there are more

6. Autumn garland “Leaves” made from salt dough

This is a very impressive DIY autumn craft. The big advantage of such a garland is that it is not seasonal and will decorate your home for many years.

After all, it is made not from natural materials, but from salt dough, which does not deteriorate over the years. The only thing is that such products are fragile and you need to handle them carefully so as not to break them.

Step 3.

Place the templates on the rolled out dough and cut them along the contours with a knife.

As a result, we should have approximately this many blanks.

Step 4

We make holes with pins and carefully secure the heads. We will hang our leaves on them. Use a knife to squeeze out the veins. Step 5 Dry the dough in the oven at 50-60C until completely dry.

Step 6

We paint the dough pieces with gouache, trying to make natural tones.

and transitions.

Step 7 We string the garland onto a twine, making a knot over each leaf so that they do not move. So our DIY autumn craft is ready. You can hang it anywhere, it will be in place in any corner of the house, especially if you have some other decorative elements in

autumn style 7. Vases and houses made from ordinary pumpkin Autumn is the time for pumpkins to ripen. It costs mere pennies and can be found beautiful shape and coloring is not difficult.

Wreath on the door made of natural materials We have already given above an example of wreaths made of pumpkins and chestnuts. You already know how to make them. Here we simply present a selection of the most effective, in our opinion, ideas.

9. Acorn frame for a photo or mirror

Decorating any base in this way is very simple. We think no explanation is needed here.

The only thing we can advise is that you should not glue acorns on

glue gun

This autumn craft will look the best way, if you paint the “berries” in natural colors, and instead of grape leaves add a herbarium of maple leaves of various colors.

Also, bunch of grapes made of acorns is a wonderful element of any autumn wreath on the door or large topiary. After all, it can be made not only tabletop, but also human-sized!

But instead of a foam ball, you need to take a large plastic one. Making grapes from acorns is very simple, we will now tell you exactly how.

What we need for work:

1. Acorns without caps
2. Shilo
3. Wire
3. Glue gun
4. Acrylic paint
5. Autumn leaves for decoration

Master class step by step:

1 step.

We poke holes in the base of the acorn with an awl.

Step 2. We break or cut the wire into pieces 7-10 cm long.

Step 3. Dip the ends of the wire into a drop of glue from the gun and insert it into the punctured holes.

Step 4

We paint the acorns any color you want. The main thing is that it is combined with leaves that will complement the composition.

Step 5 We collect acorns in a cluster, forming a wire rod on top. Then we attach leaves to it.

Now you can make any decoration based on this autumn craft. Panel, wreath, etc.

11. Autumn crafts from felt Working with this fabric is a pleasure! The material does not crumble and holds its shape perfectly. This means that any beginner can make an autumn craft from felt with their own hands and it will turn out no worse than the products of experienced craftswomen. We offer you a selection of the best and

simple decors in autumn style, and you can choose any of them! They are so simple that there is no need to describe their step-by-step technology in detail. As you can see, based on felt leaves, you can make both a wreath and a garland, like the one we already made from salt dough. Here are a couple more options

autumn wreaths

with your own hands.

All you need is to draw the templates, cut out the felt and design it according to our photos. 12. Garlic and red pepper braid How cozy it is when bundles of garlic, onions, and red peppers hang in the kitchen! But if you hang them in

fresh

For work we will need:

, they will very soon lose their appearance or simply run out because they will be eaten. Let's do something like this, but for centuries! Now we will look at how garlic and pepper are made, from which we will form a cute braid for the kitchen. 1. Nylon tights
white
3. White coarse thread (for dressing and forming lobules)
4. Glue gun
5. Buckwheat or twine (to imitate garlic roots)
6. Fabric for sewing peppers or salty dough for sculpting it

Master class step by step:

1 step. We form the body of the garlic. To do this we need to cut into squares or nylon tights or simple plastic bags. Garlic made from nylon looks, of course, more realistic.

But even from the packages it looks good. But the main thing is that this material is always at hand. So, cut out a square, approximately 7 by 7 cm in diameter.

Step 2. We roll a ball out of cotton wool or padding polyester, put it inside a piece of nylon and form a head of garlic. It looks like the one shown in the photo.

Step 3.

Then we begin to tie a harsh thread around the head, forming cloves of garlic. First we divide it in half, then into quarters, then into 8 parts.

Look at the photo, the process is clearly shown there.

Step 4

In the place where the roots of real garlic are located, drop a drop of glue and sprinkle this place with crushed buckwheat. If you want, you can replace it with twine, which needs to be unraveled and finely chopped.

Step 5

We make a braid from twine and attach the resulting garlic cloves to it.

Step 6 Now it's time to deal with the pepper. You can sew it, but peppers made from salt dough look much better. We have already given the recipe for the batch, in the subsection “Garlands of autumn leaves.” These are the peppercorns you should end up with.

Step 7

We make holes in the tails of the peppercorns (we will then thread twine through them and use it to secure them to the braid with garlic). You can do this with an awl or any available item. The main thing is to make them large enough so that you can thread the thread freely later. Otherwise, after drying, you will not be able to attach it in any way. ready product

to the composition. And one more thing: if you make a hole, make sure that the edges of the leg remain more or less large. Otherwise, after you thread the thread, the thin walls may crack and the pepper will fall to the floor. Step 8

Dry in the oven, color

The principle of making bulbs is the same as garlic, only even simpler. There is no need to form slices.

Also, a bunch of mushrooms on the wall will look great, which you can also sculpt from dough and paint realistically.

Ours has come to an end great review. You have seen many examples and any kind of autumn crafts with your own hands. We really hope that our master classes will be useful to you and that you will definitely take something into account.

When after summer holidays children return to the school walls, they will soon be expected there themed matinees and celebrations dedicated to this time of year. Often children do it with their own hands for school autumn bouquet. It can be made from anything - from leaves and twigs, from spikelets and gifts of nature.

If a child does not know how to make an autumn bouquet for school, then our step-by-step instructions. Thanks to it, you can make from ordinary maple leaves that lie literally under your feet a real masterpiece even without special skills.

Master class: craft for school “Autumn Bouquet”

1. The first step, of course, is to collect material for our craft. These will be large maple leaves of red-orange color. The main thing is that they are not dry and brittle, with various defects in the form of dark spots.

In addition, you will also need adhesive tape or any other tape that will cover the stem of our future bouquet, as well as scissors and several strong twigs, for example from a pear.


2. In order to make one bud, and we will be making an autumn bouquet for school in the form of a composition of roses, you will need leaves of the same shade. Take the first leaf wrong side towards us and bend the top inwards. We bend the two remaining edges around the resulting core one by one.

3. This is what a folded leaf looks like - the core of the future rose. Now, holding it with your fingers, we make a petal in the same way.

4. We wrap a new sheet around the middle, bending the sharp protruding corners towards ourselves. You should wrap the petals around the center tightly enough to give the flower a neat and believable appearance.

5. Quantity maple leaves not regulated by anyone - take as much as you need to get it right beautiful flower. If there are few of them, then you will get a half-opened bud, if there are a little more, then a lush rose. Do not forget to hold the structure well from below with your fingers so that the flower does not fall apart at the most inopportune moment.

6. Each new petal should be one level lower than the previous one so that the rose looks like a real one.

7. Now, using adhesive tape or a strip of green material, we attach it to the legs maple leaves a fairly thick branch. It should be flat or slightly curved.

8. In a similar way You can make as many flowers as you like for the composition, but you should not overuse them so that the autumn bouquet does not become too cluttered. Our bouquet will have seven flowers and that is quite enough.

9. Like this beautiful rose should come from an ordinary maple leaf.

10. Now all that remains is to put the autumn bouquet, made in stages with your own hands, into a suitable vase and it can be presented at a school fair or autumn celebration.

Now you know how to compose and decorate a simple but extremely interesting autumn bouquet for school in just half an hour. You can also decorate your home with such homemade products.

With a little imagination, thanks to this technique you can make absolutely different compositions from seemingly the same natural material. If you take not red, but yellow leaves and combine them with green ones, for example, you will get a completely different creation.

In addition to the color of the leaves, you can also slightly change the technique - if you twist the roses less tightly, you will get a slightly different flower, more flat shape, and when the “petals” are placed without a large difference in height, the appearance of our flower changes. You can also diversify this craft with decor from viburnum berries, rowan berries and dried flowers, which autumn is so rich in.

Autumn is a golden time. Fallen leaves cover the ground with a magic carpet. Who among us has not brought leaves home? However, although they are unusual in color, it will be much more interesting to create an autumn bouquet of leaves and decorate your home with them.

We offer a master class describing several options for creating such a product with your own hands. It will not only add zest to your home, but also to your autumn photo shoot.

Memories of autumn

We will need maple leaves of various colors and thread.

Fold the first sheet in half crosswise. And roll it into a tight tube.

This will be the middle of our flower. Now take the second sheet and apply front side to preparing the bud. We also fold it in half, maybe 1/3.

Then slightly turn away the top of the second petal and wrap it around the bud. On the contrary, we attach the third sheet in the same way.

This is how we form the entire flower, and each subsequent row should fit a little looser to the previous one.

We fix the thread at the base.

For your confidence, if you are making such a bouquet for the first time, you can attach each leaf to the sewing.

We wrap the bouquet with a larger leaf than was used for the flowers, and also secure it with thread.

Can be wrapped in beautiful paper, or you can leave it like that.

Another variant

This option also consists of roses, but the folding of the leaves is different.

Here's what we need:

• 10 maple leaves each different sizes and colors for one flower. They should be slightly dry, even freshly fallen, as they will be more plastic;
• right there in the forest you can pick up twigs, they will go into stems;
• green tape;
• scissors.

We take the smallest leaf and turn it with the inside facing us. Folding the tops, wrap them into a roll. We get the middle of the flower, as shown in the photo.

We take the second leaf, bend the middle top and apply it to the bud. Then, bending the edges of the sheet one by one, we wrap it.

This way we attach the leaves. It is better to apply them in order of increasing size and overlap.

We can secure the finished flower with thread. We attach a twig to it, wrap it with tape from the base of the flower and along the entire length of the stem.

We combine all the resulting flowers into a bouquet. We can decorate at our discretion.

Adding variety

We will need:

• slightly dry leaves of birch, aspen, etc.;
• jute rope;
• balloon;
• PVA glue;
• glue gun;
• branches with rowan berries.

As you can see, you need to make a ball out of jute thread. We take a balloon, inflate it and wrap it in jute, while generously greasing it with PVA glue (you can also use wallpaper). We are waiting for it to dry. We pierce and remove the ball.

Now let's start making flowers. To do this, take a piece of paper and roll it into a little bag, fastening the edges with hot glue.

We wrap the next sheet around it and also use glue. In this way we attach all the leaves, and each subsequent one should be equal to or slightly larger than the previous one. Forming a rose bud.

You can apply hot glue to the petals to imitate dew. Now we insert the flower into the jute ball and secure it with glue.

This is how we design the entire ball.

If desired, at the stage while the jute ball is still wet, you can make a flat bottom and decorate only the convex part.

Now we fill the voids with rowan berries so that the jute is not visible at all.

Such a non-standard bouquet can fit on a vase, or you can provide a loop and then hang it, for example, on a door.

Fourth method

It is most likely suitable for joint creativity with a child, because it is very simple and does not require special skills.

Material and tools:

• leaves (children will have fun collecting them with you);
• thin branches for the stem;
• cardboard;
• PVA glue;
• green paint, preferably acrylic, but gouache and watercolor are also suitable;
• brush;
• half-liter glass jar;
• piece of fabric;
• rubber;
• satin ribbon.

We glue the leaves onto a piece of cardboard in a circle, overlapping them, and choose the largest ones.

We take a little smaller leaves for the next row and place them in a checkerboard pattern relative to the previous ones.

The third, and for our example the last, row can be made of three small leaves, or we can take petals of dried flowers.

We can cover the middle with a bead or rhinestone, or we can glue a very small sheet and paint it. A piece of fabric is used here.

While our flowers are drying (choose the quantity yourself), we paint the branches green.

When all the parts are dry, attach the flowers and individual leaves to the branch.

Now let's take care of the jar. We decorate it with fabric, securing it at the neck with an elastic band, and covering the fastening with a satin ribbon.

We place our flowers in a transformed jar. Although, if desired, it can be replaced with a beautiful vase.

As you can see, there is a ton of potential in fall foliage. You can create amazing bouquet arrangements by adding additional decor in the form of berries, dry herbs, cones, etc.

It’s better when the autumn bouquet contains more bright and juicy flowers. Asters, roses, ripe juicy rose hips+ small inclusions fresh leaves and stems of herbal plants.

To the bouquet looked like one solid whole- it makes sense to TIE IT into a single BUNCH - and then insert it into a vase in a bundle as a WHOLE AUTUMN COMPOSITION.

It is not necessary to use long stems of flowers and plants... An autumn bouquet can be made from short cut flowers and branches(as in the floral examples below).

Branches fruits of rose hips, hawthorn, barberry and rowan The bouquet creates a special flavor of autumn floristry. You can also add deciduous branches of bushes or trees... heavy fruits along the bottom line of the composition and blue flowers along the top edge of the bouquet.

Autumn flowers: garden roses, asters, rose hips and wild roses... And original floral inserts - in the form miniature pumpkins or pumpkins... In order for heavy pumpkin fruits to hold well in a bouquet, you need to carefully “drill” a hole in them... find a strong branch... and pin the squash onto the branch. And just like that, insert it on a branch into our autumn bouquet.

Any container can serve as a vase for an autumn composition... for example tin milk jug(as in the photo above). Or a clay decorative amphora... or you can place a vessel with water in a wicker basket.

Fresh berries can also be present in an autumn bouquet.

Branches of red currant will give the bouquet a juicy shade - especially if the roses also match the color of the berries. And by the way... in the same composition in the photo below clearly you can see the RULE OF THREE CLASSIC LINES of a bouquet(which I will talk about below).

Autumn bouquets of LEAVES.

You can just cut it off from dwarf maple beautiful twigs with yellow maple leaves. Let their beautiful twigs be visible in the crystal water of a transparent vase.

And another interesting move - if in transparent vase put down cleanly washed carrot root vegetables- there is no need to cut the tops, they will serve as part of the autumn bouquet. And by the way, one thing is visible in this bouquet classic rule compositions (and not only autumn ones).

Dry transparent leafy stems It’s better to choose tall ones - so that they create the TOP EDGE of the bouquet... and place them on the BOTTOM bright succulent flowers and leaves.

HOW to compose a bouquet - rules for the correct placement of lines.

The bouquet also has a RULE OF LINES... This rule is well illustrated by the following photograph. It is necessary to comply with Three main directions (see yellow branches)- branch UP with a slope to the left... branch to the LEFT with a slight rise... branch to the RIGHT almost horizontally.

And for balance - a few branches or stems should hang down (these are the brown branches in the photo below)

Here is the bouquet below - also created according to the same principle of THREE CLASSIC LINES OF COMPOSITION.

LEAVES AND FLOWERS - a friendly combination of shapes and shades.

Small bouquets of flowers look beautiful autumn flowers and large leaves... Chrysanthemums are ideal for this purpose - they last for a very long time without fading...

The color of tea roses... and the orange-yellow hue of lilies match perfectly with the shade of autumn foliage... and in the bouquet we emphasize this color match with green-leafed plants. And also note that as linear elements- are used plant seed stems(brown in the photo below).

Here's an example of how You can make “tea” roses with your own hands from ordinary maple leaves. Below we see the very essence of the technology - and to help yourself it’s better to take duct tape to wrap the bases of such leafy buds along the way (and it is better to choose a green ribbon - sold in construction and florist stores).

DRY BOUQUETS for autumn interior.

DRY BOUQUETS are great idea for interior decoration long time. So autumn compositions no moisture needed. Such a dry bouquet can even be painted with spray paint (as in the photo below).

Or bouquets can be decorated as decorative "heap" from leaves, cones, plant seed pods, dry branches, berry umbrellas and other natural material.

MINIMALIST DESIGN - in the design of an autumn bouquet.

The bouquet can be quite modest- the main thing is that the design is stylish. Here's how in the photo below - from acorns and acorn caps you can glue funny inflorescences... and insert such dried flowers into a vase along with oak leaves. This is a great fall craft for kindergarten(can be done with your child). You'll just have to make the wire holders yourself.

Even so modest composition of leaves in beakers- looks self-sufficient. Also an example of minimalism in an interior bouquet.

After all, you really don’t need much. Small flowers... stems of cereals... umbrella branches with berries - and now you have a beautiful autumn bouquet for a small composition on the table.

Or you can use cups of flowers with a very short stem- if you place them at the bottom of a large glass vase. For linear harmony, add tall stems- but in muted colors... so that they do not draw attention to themselves and the center of the composition remains JUICY BRIGHT FLOWERS.

Or flower cups can be arranged beautifully flower carpet in a flat vase(similar to a bowl or salad bowl).

By the same principle you can make a bouquet of rowan branches, juniper branches and pine needles...

If you haven’t found a beautiful salad bowl... then you can mask its walls with dry leaves- securing it all with turns of coarse rope, or woolen knitting thread (as in the photo below).

And by the way - this photo below is an example of that HOW TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR WILLING ROSES(which were given to you... they are standing in a vase and have already drooped their heads and are about to start losing their petals - despite the fact that you change the water and trim the stems)...

Withered calyxes will instantly come back to life... if you cut them short. put it in a small bowl (as in the photo below) and decorate the bowl with this leafy wrapper... The secret is that it won’t take long for the water to get to the bud along a long stem... the buds will receive plenty of water and again the petals will become dense and elastic... and your roses will delight you for a long time...

AUTUMN BOUQUETS - on an “oasis” (floral foam).

You can make a bouquet arrangement in the EASTERN STYLE - when the material for bouquets OASIS is placed in a flat vase (this is a porous material, plasticine foam. It is soaked with water and the stems are stuck into it - such a bouquet lives for a long time due to the moisture accumulated in the oasis. And it just takes time Moisten this floral sponge with water from time to time.

In such an oasis you can stick not only stems of flowers and herbs, but also pine needles... cones... poppy pods... and other natural materials. And as we see in the photo below, the oasis can be placed on a cut of an ordinary birch log.

Autumn bouquets - from APPLES.

You can make the beautiful bouquet arrangements with apples in the photo below with your own hands.

In order for the apples to stick, you need pin on holders. It could be metal holder- with spread out peaks... insert the holder into the water... prick apples onto the peaks... and fill the gaps with other vegetation.

Or a holder can be replace with sharp knots... sharpen strong thin branches with a knife...prick apples onto the branches...insert them into water under different punctures...and fill the remaining gaps with autumn flowers and leaves.

You can also use SWEET PEPPER FRUITS in a bouquet...

Fruit-bearing VASES - for autumn bouquets.

Citrus and pumpkin crops have a strong, waterproof PEEL. This brings up the idea of ​​using them - AS A VASE.

It is enough just to cut off the top of the fruit... remove the pulp from it... fill it with water and place our autumn bouquet in such a fruit vase.

And even cabbage can become a vase. No, the pump itself will not hold water for long... most likely it will leak. But you can be smarter... make a recess in the rocker... into which to insert a small vase of water.

But the most convenient thing, of course, is pumpkins - such a vase can be used many times... And not only as a vase, but also as a candlestick for autumn evening gatherings with cozy candle lighting.

In addition to the classic round pumpkin, a vase for a bouquet in the fall can serve pathesons, zucchini and decorative pumpkin crops having a bizarre curved shape.

And even decorative pimply fruits - which are not stable - can be placed on their side - and the neck of such a fruit vase can be made - in the side of the fruit. (as in the left photo below).

Or a vase can be made from birch stump... this is of course not a fruit - but also part of the plant world.

Vases with decorative filling for bouquets.

You can use acorns... pine cones... rose hips... apples... beans... cereals... and other bulk natural materials as filling in a vase.

And most importantly... Water should not be poured into the bulk material itself.... otherwise the water will simply darken and all this beauty will simply rot. Better to do the smart thing.

IN wide vase- place narrow vase... so that there is space between the vases. And so we pour water for the bouquet into the inner vase... and pour some natural material into the space between it and the outer vase.
