Hi Made of means sth is entirely composed of a specific material. e.g, "the chair is Made of wood." Made from means sth is constructed using a certain material, but other materials may be included too. e.g. "The chair is made from wood" means the frame could be made of metal. Made our is very similar to Made from. The difference is that it means composed of a certain material or materials. E.g. "sneakers made out of fabric and rubber" means thise materials make up the sneakers. Made with means a material was used in the construction or production process, but may not be the main material it's composed of. E.g "cake made with flour, sugar, and eggs"- those are ingredients used to make the cake, not necessarily what the whole cake is made of.
Made totally from... Made mostly of... Made, with an ingredient, from Made with love and care
Made of : indicates that something is composed of certain materials or ingredients.it suggests that the final product retains the basic characteristics of those materials. For example " the table is made of wood" Made from: implies that the final product has undergone a transformation or process from its original state. For example "paper is made from wood pulp" Made out of : is the same as made of however it is often used informally and can imply a sense of creativity or resourcefulness. Made with : indicates that something was created using certain tools, methods or ingredients. It often emphasizes the process of creation rather than just materials for example " the cake was made with love"
