Felt Bottle Caps

Our little brother used to collect different kinds of plastic bottle caps, and during our cleaning, we found a whole plastic bag filled with multicolored bottle caps. So we decided to put these bottle caps to use and create these cute little felt bottle caps!

 

Toothpaste Milk Carton

We have a collection of cardboard boxes of all sorts at home, so we decided to make a milk carton pencil holder out of a toothpaste box!

Why Have This Blog?

Hi!
We're two sisters who are interested in Art and Education!
We challenged ourselves to make one post a day about an artistic technique or how-to project that can be used in teaching.
We believe that each and everyone has a potential to be an artist, and that teachers should apply creativity in teaching.
