Figurines made from chestnuts, acorns and pinecones

When in autumn the forest wears its most beautiful colours, it is fun going out for a walk with friends and family. It makes it all that much more fun as you can collect a lot of things you can use later on for crafting.

For the figurines you need:

  • Chestnuts
  • Cones
  • Acorns
  • Matchsticks or toothpicks
  • Possibly glue

Instructions:

First, sort your collection by tree fruit, size and shape. Larger chestnuts can be used for the body of your figurines while round chestnuts and acorns can be used for the heads. For the feet use chestnuts which are flattened slightly.

Head and legs you can attach with toothpicks to the bodies of your figurines. If necessary also use a drop of glue for the needed support. For the arms, you can use mates or toothpicks, which can easily be stuck into the chestnuts.
