Now a days our four and a half year old daughter, Avi and I, have been using nature and including them in our crafts.
You can recycle and reuse many outdoor flower petals, seeds and shells to make beautiful creations such as using pistachio shells to create flowers, mushrooms to make prints out of or rose petals to make a beautiful butterfly scene choices are endless.
Here are some of the creations inspired by nature that Avi made.
Flower petals along with markers on colored paper.
Mushrooms used as stamps or spongelike tool for painting.
Fallen rose petals from our garden glued to construction paper.
