And if you missed this post on Mindful Meanderings...
Eva had a school project last week ~ Trash to treasure... She could use either cereal box or plastic water bottle and make it into something useful.. But she has to make it in school! I tried to convince her to make a lantern out of the plastic bottle ... but she simply didn't listen... She make an organiser out of the cereal box.
Anyway, so this weekend, I simply had to show her how easy this craft was...
You will need water bottles, glass colours, scissors ...
And the process is real easy. Cut the top part of the bottle and give it to your little one to paint. While my older one thought dropping paint was a good idea... My younger one decided to make a mess.. see below..
Well.. then I added a handle (using a hanger) and a few old beads... and here is the end result...
Hung it on the tree... and the lanterns look lovely... What do you think?
What else can you make of plastic bottles.... and oh.. don't forget to link at 'Kids Craft'..
