Recycled Window Art

Time:40 min Difficulty:Easy  

Show some love for our planet by creating Earth-themed mosaic art to display in your window—made with recycled materials, of course!

Here’s what you need:

  • Blue and green paper scraps: old magazines, newspapers, mailers, or seasonal cards, whatever you can find!
  • Cardboard, like a cereal box
  • Glue
  • Plate
  • Art supplies to decorate (optional)

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1:

Cut your paper scraps into fun shapes and sizes.

TIP: If you can’t find much that fits the theme, you can use some markers, crayons, or paint to make your scraps blue and green!

Step 2:

Place a plate upside-down on your cardboard and use it to draw a circle. Take the plate off, and cut out your circle. This will be your Earth!

Step 3:

Mark the areas that will be land and water on your Earth mosaic.

Step 4:

Glue your colorful scraps to the base in a mosaic style, filling in all the empty spaces. 

Once it’s dry, hang it up in the window so your neighbors can admire your masterpiece as they walk by!

  5. I’m not sure what I’m going to say about it because I love it so much and I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it but I’m not going to throw it in my garbage
