What it means
から作る expresses making something using a material or ingredient as its source. The material is marked by から, and the result is made by the subject. It is commonly used when the original material is changed into a different form, such as making baskets from bamboo or wine from grapes.
Usage note
から作る describes an active act of making, so the subject is the person or organization that makes the result. To describe the result itself as being made from a material, use the passive form から作られる instead.
