Recycled Paper Christmas Trees

If your house is anything like mine there are stacks of old kid’s artwork lying around.  Frame it, photograph it, have it printed on coaster?? There is no end to ways to commemorate your kiddos creativity but I love using it to make new artwork!  Use old art work or any colorful paper to create this paper Christmas tree craft perfect for holiday cards!

Weaving for Kids- a Recycled Plastic Bottle Craft

This project takes weaving for kids to a whole new level.  Not only will your kids learn some basic weaving skills but alllll of the materials used are 100% upcycled.  That’s right- a zero cost art project because all of the materials were headed to to the trash anyways!  Save a water bottle and an old t-shirt and get ready for a new kind of water bottle craft!

It can be easy to look right past everyday materials that have great potential as art materials.  This rainbow color wheel collage activity uses recycled magazine pages as a color source.  Unusual?  Maybe, but also perfect!  They’re readily available, free, and come in a thousand colors!
