  3. Three holes should be marked on its surface with a toothpick. Small carnations are inserted into them in place of the eyes and nose.
  4. Larger pepper is used to make the body of a fox. The lower part must be carefully cut off from the vegetable. The figurine should be stable.
  5. The fox's head is attached to the body with a toothpick.
  6. A small hole should be cut in the lower part of the body. It is necessary to insert the stalk of another pepper into it. It will become the tail of a fox.
  7. After that, you need to take another small pepper and cut off the back from it. The base of the vegetable must be cut into four equal pieces.
  8. They will act as paws. These parts are attached to the body of the fox using halves of toothpicks.
  9. Small triangular ears must be cut out of the remains of the vegetable. They are attached to the top of the fox.

The finished craft looks bright and beautiful.

Frog

A child can make a beautiful frog from green vegetables. First, you need to remove the stalk and seeds from the pepper. After that, the vegetable must be thoroughly rinsed under running water and cut into two halves.One of them will be used as the body of a frog. The other half should be cut into 4 thin strips. These legs are attached to the front and back of the figurine using pieces of a toothpick. It is worth decorating this craft with small eyes made of carnations.

These frogs can be served or grilled. Pepper toads go well with meat.

Hedgehog

To create this craft, the child will need:

  • Green pepper;
  • toothpicks;
  • Carnation;
  • olive;
  • Green grapes.

The step-by-step process for creating this fall craft is very simple.

  1. First you need to pick up a small pepper. It will serve as the basis for this figurine.
  2. Hedgehog needles are made from green grapes attached to the frame with sharp toothpicks. They should be located close enough to each other.
  3. The olive nose is also attached to the front of the figure with a toothpick.
  4. When the craft is ready, it remains to decorate it with small carnation eyes.

Such a hedgehog can be attributed to an exhibition in a school or kindergarten. To make the product last longer, to create it, you need to select ripe, but not too juicy berries.

Making flowers

Volumetric pepper appliqués can be made in several ways. For work, you can use any materials at hand. A composition consisting of peppers and black olives looks beautiful. To create it, all the components must be cut into equal halves. The olives are attached to the middle of the painting. The yellow-green halves of the pepper are located along the edges of the flower. The finished sunflower can be additionally garnished with green leaves or parsley.

To create the second craft, the child will need red and green peppers, as well as cherry tomatoes. Fresh vegetables should be cut into thin rings. Parts of different sizes fit into each other. In the center of each flower is a tomato.

The composition is decorated with rose stems. They add realism to the appliqué.

Tulips, roses and other sweet pepper flowers look very beautiful. Such blanks can also be used to decorate various dishes. They will appeal to all household members and guests of the holiday.

How to make a steam locomotive?

To create an original train, the child will need the following ingredients:

  • 3 bell peppers;
  • 3 carrots;
  • 3 cucumbers;
  • toothpicks.

The process of creating such a craft from fresh pepper consists of the following steps.

  1. The top of each pepper must be carefully cut off.
  2. Vegetables must be seeded and rinsed in warm water.
  3. Cut the cucumbers and carrots into circles. Four two-color wheels are attached to each trailer. They are fixed with sharp toothpicks. To create the wheels, you need to use circles of the same size.
  4. All multi-colored trailers need to be connected together. Toothpicks are also used for this.

The carriages of the train can be filled with slices of apples, carrots or cucumbers. You can also use parsley or green leaves to decorate your craft.

Other craft options

Using bell peppers and a little imagination, children can turn vegetables into a small house for fairy-tale characters, a nest or a bright mushroom. A small sailing boat made of scrap materials will also look beautiful. To create it, the red pepper must be cut into two halves and each of them must be cleaned of seeds.

On one side of the figurine is a toothpick or straight branch. Half the pepper is filled with apple or any other fruit pieces. A small red flag is attached to the top of the toothpick. Sails are made from half of the yellow pepper. They also attach to a toothpick. The sailing boat turns out to be bright and beautiful.

Another popular craft that a kid can make for Halloween is the orange pumpkin. To create it, the top of the pepper must be carefully cut off with a sharp knife. After that, all the seeds must be cleaned out of it. With a knife on its walls, you need to "draw" the eyes, nose and mouth.The process of creating such original faces captivates even the smallest children.

This blank can be used to make stuffed peppers. Such a dish will become a real decoration of the table at the autumn festival. In addition, orange figurines can be used as candlesticks.

When working with fresh vegetables, you should understand that crafts made from them are short-lived. Therefore, do not store them for too long, even if they look very beautiful.
