Hedgehogs, although they are good and glorious, yet very prickly, you need to be very careful with their needles. But made from the fruit of the forest animal will be not only fun, but also edible.
The instruction is simple:
- Take a large plate, lay out lettuce leaves on it.
- Cut each pear in half, putting it on the plate with the place of the cut.
- Prepare the spines: cut the toothpicks into two parts, put the grapes on top, so that one edge remains free.
- Inject needles into pears, leaving room for the head.
- For eyes, use an elderberry, mountain ash or peppercorns in the absence of berries.
- Also use the pea to create a spout.

All vegetables should be thoroughly rinsed, dried. Large carrots and oblong potatoes - the body of a giraffe, smaller - the head. You just need to combine all the ingredients with matches (for convenience, you can use toothpicks). It will just be to draw spots on the body with acrylic paints, make eyes, dry the craft and boldly carry it to school.
Apple caterpillar
Juicy and ripe apples will be an excellent basis for creating a beautiful masterpiece - caterpillars. To make it you need toothpicks, 1 carrot, about 6 apples of the same size, grapes.
First, it is necessary to cut the root crop into thin rings (about 5 mm), then pierce the apple at the tail point with a toothpick and thread one ring of carrot into it, which will be connected to the second apple. Repeat the process until you form a caterpillar body. When one apple remains, it should be placed vertically, pricked on a toothpick.
The remaining carrots will serve as caterpillar legs, and they will also be attached using toothpicks. As a nose you need to fix the grapes, and the mountain ash can replace the eyes.
