Recycled Bottle Cap Mural - Collaborative Art Project
By Holly • April 3, 2018
How fantastic is this?! Holly of Lines, Dots, and Doodles came up with this awesome collaborative art project that is a great way for your kiddos to learn how to work with others as well as about recycling!
Supplies You'll Need
- Large piece of foam core board or wood
- Recycled bottle caps in assorted colors
- Low temp glue gun
The process seems relatively simple. First, have your students collect bottle caps in all sizes and colors. When you've created a stockpile, decide on a design, creating a key for your students to follow {"color-by-number style" as Holly says}. Armed with low temp glue guns and the key, have your kiddos set to work! The results are phenomenal and provide colorful decor for the classroom! [NOTE: This would be a fantastic project to do during Earth Day festivities.]
Be sure to head on over to Lines, Dots, and Doodles to see Holly's process {including a picture of the project key} and the awesome results!
