Upcycling DIY: Make your own toadstools for the perfect fall decoration!
In the colorful season, autumn, nature outside shines in the most dazzling colors. This also includes the many different mushrooms in different colors that can be found everywhere in autumn. The toadstool quickly catches your eye with its beautiful bright red.
Since real toadstools are not suitable for home decoration, we have the perfect alternative for you - our Monte toadstools.
With this you bring the autumn mood into your own four walls - guaranteed!
craft supplies

- ruler
- Pencil
- Glue
- Tip: nail polish remover

Instructions
Step 1
Remove the foil from the Monte Drink bottle. Adhesive residue can be removed with nail polish remover if necessary.
Using a saucer, draw a circle on the red construction paper and then cut it out. Then cut the circle to the middle. For the dots of the toadstool, draw small dots – preferably in different sizes – on the white construction paper and cut them out. Cut a long green strip from the green construction paper. It should be long enough to fit around the Monte Drink. Cut out small spikes along the long side as you wish to create grass.
Step 2
Now shape the red circle with the help of the incision so that there is a point in the middle. Now glue the overlapping construction paper together.
Then glue the white dots onto the red mushroom cap.
Then glue the green grass to the bottom of the Monte Drink bottle and the mushroom cap to the top of the lid. This works best with a hot glue gun.
Tip: It is sufficient if the edge of the lid of the Monte Drink bottle is coated with glue.
Step 3
The toadstool is ready!
Tip
Put some moss and stones under the mushrooms for more forest feeling.
