Panels made of wood are widely used to decorate walls. natural material. These can be coffee beans, cereals, dried flowers, slices of fruits or vegetables, autumn leaves.
Making panels is very convenient with children: creative activity develops imagination and the ability to think creatively. Working with small materials promotes development fine motor skills what is good for children younger age. And most importantly, there are many ideas for this activity that you want to bring to life.
Coffee bean panel
A coffee panel is ideal for the kitchen or room where you are used to relaxing. It is believed that the smell of coffee, like the drink itself, tones the body and gives a boost of energy.
Scientists have proven that at the same time, the smell of coffee beans has an anti-stress effect. The more often you inhale their aroma, the less susceptible you will be to external irritants.
View options for panels made from coffee beans - video:
To make a simple coffee bean wall hanging, you will need the following materials:
- Coffee beans of one or more varieties, differing in color, size and smell.
- Basis for the panel. It can be made from scrap materials: burlap, other durable fabric, cardboard, paper, wood.
- PVA glue, or better yet, “Titan”.
- Drawing.
- Copy paper.
- Pencil.
- Frame.
This is the minimum list of materials you will need. But you can make a panel from beans and coffee. 
A panel of cereals, diluted with coffee beans, looks like a real painting, since here you can collect the entire palette of colors:
- Coffee – green, brown, other shades of brown.
- Peas are orange.
- Beans – red, white.
- Semolina is white. It is perfect for a winter-themed mural.
- Rice – brown, white.
- Corn is yellow.
- Wheat – beige.
- Pearl barley – beige.
- Oatmeal – creamy.
- Rye – light brown, dark beige.
- Poppy seeds – black.
- Buckwheat – brown shades.
- Lentils – yellow, orange, green.
- Millet – yellow.
How to make a panel from grains:
To glue crumbly grains such as corn or semolina, ground spices and instant coffee, you need to smear glue on a part of the picture and cover it generously with the desired grain or spice. After some time, the excess residue is blown off.
Large shells are an independent decoration. And small ones become excellent materials for creating wall paintings in the form of panels.
The simplest option for a panel with shells is to glue shells of various shapes and sizes onto the base in a chaotic manner or in the form of a specific pattern.
In addition to shells, rocks and dried starfish are great options. The panels created with them are great for the bathroom: they help you imagine that you are in seabed and consider the sea relief. 
If made from shells, starfish and stones into a picture, and then cover it with gold or silver paint, you can achieve such a dazzling effect.
This is a master class on creating panels from shells on a fabric basis - on burlap. It is very easy to make: to make it, you will not need more than a couple hours.
You need the following materials:
- Smooth and thin branches from trees for the frame.
- Sackcloth.
- Strong twine.
- Cardboard.
- Brown wrapping paper.
- Gypsy needle.
- One large bead for fish eye.
- PVA glue;.
- Glue gun.
- Pebbles, shells.
- Seahorse or starfish.
- "Chicken God"
First, cut out a fish shape from cardboard and carefully cover it with burlap. Wrap the body of the fish, with the exception of the head and tail, tightly with twine. Then prepare the base:
- Hem the burlap from the edges, forming an even square.
- Make a square frame from the twigs, tying them at the ends with twine.
- Using twine, using an over-seam technique, secure the burlap to the frame.
Now tear the wrapping paper so that the edges are jagged. This will achieve greater effect. Using a glue gun, glue a fish, a large pebble and a starfish onto the paper.
Then glue pebbles and small shells. As a result, you will get the same wonderful panel as in the photo.
A service such as making stone panels is offered by many construction companies. Usually specialists put together a mosaic from natural stone by cutting it, creating a variety of patterns and even paintings.
Because natural stones painted in various colors, the panel can be made on either a summer or spring theme. If you use stones white, you will get an excellent winter panel. In the photographs you can see what beautiful mosaic panels are in stores.
But you can make a stone panel with your own hands. Pebbles collected from the bottom of the river or from the seashore are suitable for this. The more varied the shape of the stones, the more interesting the picture will be. Examples of hand-made stone panels:
Stones can be laid in a mosaic fashion to create a picture.
To do this you will need colored pebbles. They can be arranged in a pattern. You can do with them whatever your imagination is ready for!
For creative people, wood is one of the the best materials. It would seem, how can you make a wooden panel? To do this, do you need to know at least the basics of wood carving? Not at all: the panel is not necessarily decorated with carvings.
In the presence of the right tools You can make a beautiful panel without special knowledge and experience. The effect is given by the natural texture of the tree, its shape.
We will make a similar wooden panel:
The following materials will be required:
- A sheet of dimensions 170 by 80 cm made of very durable and multi-layer plywood.
- Wooden slats for the panel frame. To accentuate rough branches, the slats should be large. Even bars 10 centimeters wide and 6 centimeters thick are suitable for this. Two bars should be 150 cm long, the other pair of bars should be 80 cm. The outer side of the bars should be rough, as if sawn. They require light processing so that there are no splinters upon contact with the skin.
- Three types of sawn branches. Each “stump” should have a diameter of 4 to 5 cm. Several dozen stumps should stand out with a large diameter (from 6 to 7 cm). Several units can be made with a diameter of even 7-8 cm.
Garden species are ideal as branches: apple and cherry with preserved bark. Before work, the branches are dried well so that they do not crack or become deformed during work.
- Stain for painting wood.
- Varnish for woodworking. Opt for a matte varnish that does not interfere with the natural texture of the wood. It is absorbed into the structure of the stumps and remains invisible. But it protects perfectly from splinters, dirt and dust.
- Hot glue gun with pencils.
- Brushes for painting wood with varnish and stain.
Master class on making a wooden wall panel:
- Nail the frame and glue it to the base. It is better to entrust this task to a man.
- Place hemp cut from branches onto the finished frame for testing.
- Clean the stumps and the base for the plywood panels from sawdust and dust using a vacuum cleaner.
- Paint the base and frame with stain using a brush. It will take 2-3 layers.
- Leave the base to dry.
- Using a hot gun, glue the stumps in the same way as you laid them out during fitting.
- Let the panel dry for a whole day.
- Apply varnish to the resulting decoration.
Then let the product dry for another two days. Now the panel can be hung on the wall. If desired, you can decorate it using other materials.
Leaves panel
Panel from autumn leaves Suitable for working with children. For kids, it is real happiness to spend time with their parents and do common things.
First, you can take a walk with your child in the park or along an autumn alley, through the forest to pick bouquets various leaves, as in the photo below.
Flowers dried in summer are also used. If a panel of leaves is suitable for decorating with an autumn theme, then a panel of flowers is reminiscent of summer.
On the theme of summer, a panel can be made using leaves decorated in the form of flowers. Flowers can be made with applique, as in the photo below:
Or you can make voluminous roses from several leaves, like here:
There is freedom for imagination here. Each leaf can be associated with something. Yes, maple leaves yellow color reminiscent of cartoon fox faces. 
It remains to supplement them with some elements to get the full picture. From a variety of leaves you can create an original dragonfly.
How to make a rose from autumn leaves?
One of the most original elements for wall panel could be a rosette made from a maple leaf. It can be made without a stem by attaching the base to canvas or cardboard onto sepals of dried green leaves. But we will look at an example of how to make a rose on a stem. You can make a whole bouquet from such roses and strengthen it on the basis of a panel.
To make one rose you will need:
- Some maple leaves for the petals.
- Thin branches for stems.
- Green electrical tape.
- Scissors.
There is no need to describe the entire process of making a flower, since everything becomes clear if you look at the master class for making a rose from leaves below.

There are situations when a door in some opening is simply not needed - it is never used, but a bare opening does not always look good, so it is decorated. One of the classic ways to decorate a doorway is to hang curtains made of shells, wooden beads or balls.
But over time they wear out and become unusable. As a couple, we feel sorry for throwing away such things, although we understand that appearance does not match the interior. Many of us never even thought that we could create masterpieces from such ordinary things.
The painting becomes original with an unusual texture, and is also an environmentally friendly material.
Required materials and tools:
1. Wooden frame 50x70 cm;
2. DVD sheet;
3. Glue Titan;

Old For mock
Lost among the dense forests
Forgotten by time, winds and people
Ancient castle, stone
In the basements he keeps his secrets
Keeps betrayals in dark corners
In prison cells - betrayal and revenge
And the throne room is packed to the ceiling
It contains hypocrisy, intrigue, pathos, flattery
Lost in an age-old half-asleep
He sees days long gone
Dreams of glory burn his peace
Disturbing the soul with devilish fire
At a round dusty table
By moonlight for many years in a row
Heroes' ghosts over velvet wine
They talk about the exploits of the past.
We selected a picture, taking into account its color scheme, we use various materials for additional shades. We dye the red beads in stain, and bleach the yellow beads, and wait until they dry completely.
On a DVD sheet we draw a grid, 2 cm wide and high. This is done so that there are clear and straight lines, horizontally and vertically. Otherwise, all errors will be visible in the finished product. Let's draw a picture.
Place it on the base according to the pattern and select the beads according to color scheme, in brick order, without using glue.
We secure the laid out fragment of the drawing with tape, then glue these fragments. We try to align the lines horizontally and vertically. The ruler helped us in this case.
Having laid out the entire picture, it was varnished and placed in a frame.
The work performed using the mosaic technique took part in the competition “The Magical World of Mosaics” in November 2016, taking first place.
I hope, dear colleagues, that you liked this master class and will find it useful in your work!
