RECYCLED PLANTER

Upcycle your old drink bottles and display your favourite plants in custom planters - win/win!

STEP 1: CUT RECYCLED BOTTLE

Take a recycled plastic bottle and using a Stanley knife cut off the top.

Note

Adult assistance required for this step!

STEP 2: COVER IN TISSUE PAPER

Use the Blu Stik to glue the boots and hair template to your chosen colour card. Cut out a rectangle from the coloured paper big enough to fit the googley eyes into. Use the Clag Kids PVA to glue the eyes and mask.

STEP 3: CREATE FRINGING

Cut two small strips of black paper. Use the scissors to create fringing - these are the eyelashes. Use Clag Kids PVA Glue to secure the lashes, googly eyes and bottle top nose to planter.

STEP 4: CREATE EARS

Cut out the ears from the template. Use Clag Paste to cover them in tissue paper. Use Clag Kids PVA Glue to secure both ears to the planter. Leave to dry.

STEP 5: PAINT MOUTH

Paint a red mouth and leave to dry.

STEP 6: ADD PLANT

Once your planter is dry, add soil and a plant. Watch it grow!
