Make a Mandala with Natural Materials

September 11, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

I love collecting natural materials for art projects, and my daughter and I have had a lot of fun through the years collecting leaves, sticks, acorns, rocks and other materials from our yard, neighborhood or local park to use for painting or display.

NurtureStore has a great idea for making a mandala design with natural materials such as leaves and flowers. This is a really cool project kids can do on their own or each child can gather materials and the group can make a mandala together.

Depending on how durable your chosen items are, you can leave them outside or bring them inside and set up your design so you can see how it changes over days or weeks.

Making and observing mandalas is a very calming activity that sounds perfect for these hard days. Check out the full tutorial and lots of great ideas for making mandalas at NurtureStore.
